fairy door

A new toy (*ahem* tool) ~ and crafting on

A scroll saw has been on my wish list since I found out about them (which admittedly isn’t that long!).

Fairy doors in progress…

So when my cabinet maker brother-in-law visited recently I asked if, by chance, he had one. And – big smile – he does! And – even bigger smile – he has lent it to me!

So, my crafting to-do list already had lots of fairy doors and gnomes (that I was going to use a jigsaw for)…

More and more…

…but with the wonderful scroll saw there are so many more possibilities. I’ve now added trees and a couple of other ideas to that to-do list 🙂

Trees!

And 3 broken blades later I am getting the feel for it and loving every minute! Joining in with Nicole at Frontier Dreams for Crafting On 🙂

Happy crafting, Kelly

Whimsical doors

I think of all the crafting I do these days, making little magical whimsical doors has to be my favourite 🙂 I just love the possibilities they suggest and invite.

I heard that a little boy asked how the fairies go in their door, to which his grandma replied…

you see that tiny little hole in the wood there?‘ 
mmm, yes‘ he said 
well, that’s where they go in…’
I was thrilled when I heard this story about a door I had created! Just magic – I hope it set the little boy’s imagination soaring!

These are my latest creations 🙂

Happily creating, Kelly
