Vintage lace Mini Wreaths   It is no secret, to close friends and family that I love to collect their lace fabrics, to use for Art and craft.  I am a fine and applied Artist, who is so in love with applying objects and fabric to my Art and craft and lace, I use for it's texture and delicate look and feel.    Lately lace, has come into play in my Art and I love that but this blog, is about shabby chic which we know is a lacy affair.  I created these lace flower hangings, with plastic embroidery loops, that can be hung in a home with shabby chic interiors and accessories.  Black and Red lace may not be the favorite color of lace for shabby chic decor, I beg to differ because I see color and would love, to bend the rules to add a splash of color here and there to an all white, cream and beige, accessories in a shabby chic theme.

Decorative craft ideas to make with fabric  I love craft, it is no secret. 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.                            Covered bowl 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.

  Jewelry making is a craft I enjoy and it helps me financially too. Bead making can also serve a revenue stream and a small business that can grow into something big. I enjoy jewelry making because it allows me to be more creative and daring. The cool thing about making jewelry, is there are no rules,   any cool object or material could be used and that's fabulous.  Most of the jewelry, I make are beads and I make them,   for the purpose of Art not really to be worn.   I enjoy mounting them, on mannequins as display and sell them as art. These beads are acrylic beads and I decided to design them as a collection. So I share with you some of them,  exhibited in a craft show...Enjoy!                          MIABO ENYADIKE
