I’m Back!

September 16, 2018October 27, 2018 Lara

Last you heard from me I was in Mt Gambier attending Craft Alive, and I promised to show you all of the beautiful products I discovered. That post never came, but better late than never, right?

Now that my due date is only a week away (😱) I seem to be finishing projects very quickly! Nothing like impending childbirth to get you motivated! #thewholeworldisagarden #thesecretgarden #embroidery #modernembroidery #contemporaryembroidery #embroideryart #handembroidery #broderie #bordado #borduurwerk #handstitched #needleandthread #hoopart #fiberart #fibreart #makersgonnamake #applique
Make weird stuff and put it out into the world 🌠 This piece was inspired by friend and artist, @stephfullerartist and Queen. I made this as a reminder to myself to keep creating, and that perfection isn't the goal. Steph, I haven't forgotten yours, I promise to get to it one of these days 😉 #embroidery #modernembroidery #contemporaryembroidery #embroideryart #handembroidery #broderie #bordado #borduurwerk #handstitched #needleandthread #hoopart #fiberart #fibreart #makersgonnamake #art #makeweirdstuff
Instagram and I had a big fight yesterday. My last post I tried to upload twice. The first time the whole thing vanished, the second time all my text disappeared and only the picture uploaded. I'm back to tell you about my last post now that Instagram and I are on speaking terms again. It's a super quick craft project and it's super handy for all those little earrings you have lying around on every surface of your bedroom (just me?). I took an offcut of some lace curtain fabric and put it in an embroidery hoop, trimmed the edges, hung it on the wall, and that's it. Now I can just poke the earrings through the lace and voilà! No more messy earrings. This took me no more than 5 minutes, and you could use any kind of holey fabric you have laying around (I think a crocheted doily would look super cute!). . #makersgonnamake #craft #crafternoon #craftersofinstagram #etsy #etsyshop #etsysellersofinstagram #handmade #handmadegifts #creative #laramakes #create #diy #homemade #earrings #earringholder #earringdisplay #jewellery #jewellerystorage

It looks like my idea of changing things up has helped me get my creative mojo back. What do you do to overcome a creative block??
