Decorative craft ideas to make with fabric
I enjoy revamping and creating functional items practically from objects and materials around me.
Fabric
For me it is a way to unwind from fine Art, which sometimes could weigh on one's emotions, especially when the art you want to create is not turning out the way you envisioned.
I always turn to craft, it gives me comfort in these types of situations.
Right now, I'm going through one of those Artist block moments and I'm a bit emotional but my first love, craft is holding me down until I pull through.
This time it is fabrics, I collect quite a lot of vintage fabrics for use in Art and Craft.
Fabric
I find myself in flea markets, charity stores looking for those vintage sample fabrics, with lots of colours,bold patterns and prints on them.
They are hot right now and can be used to transform bland objects into fantastic decor or Art.
Covered bowls
This time I used bright colored fabrics with pepper and tomato print to cover bowls,coasters and bottles.
Things I used;
You will need the following
-bottles
-wooden coasters
-wooden flowers
-bowls
-fabric
-Mod Podge
-scissor
You can find them in craft stores and dollar stores. The inspiration for me, is my new found love for vegetables. I'm into them right now I really need a reminder.
They are not bowls, for eating but they are fun decorations in the kitchen and dining area.
Wooden Coaster
The coasters make great accessories and gifts same as the bottles.
Wait a minute I just might create pendant lights, out of the bowls I would keep you posted ................Enjoy
