Sometimes You Win

Sometimes the blues get a hold of you.........when your last dollar goes for an extravagant snack-only to be lodged just out of your reach in the vending machine. Or your website goes down temporarily as in dear Johanna's case this week (see johannaparkerdesign for her new spring designs!)

Fortunately she is a creative genius who will undoubtedly find a silver lining in that gloom cloud.

..but as promised, we gave away lots of heart sachet kits this month!! Actually, all followers won a prize-their choice of Love, Mom, Sister, Friend, etc. If you have been following & you haven't seen the email requesting address to send your gift, please email it to elaine@ilovefiberart.com. by February 25th

Happy brighter side!

Flowers, Friends, Chocolate and an Unwelcome Guest

Leave it to my dear friend C to throw a sensational Valentine's and Birthday celebration for A complete with flowers- 20 or 30 of these little party favor garden rose vases!

Tulips and roses everywhere with hearts and of course-chocolate dipped treats which the teenagers created!

Is it any wonder why I always leave their gorgeous homes and dinner parties inspired?

Make these chocolate dipped velvet strawberries with kits from ilovefiberart store or embroider your own with ilovefiberart CD Vol. 1 embroidery designs, also available in store.

These were my party favors for my dear, dear friends C & A: Embroidered silk sachets with cashmere roses. I made tubes of cashmere knit, then rolled up little buns for roses and tacked them atop the lavender filled treasures.

As for the unwanted guest- A has a sense of humor, sometimes as twisted as my own, (which is another reason I love her!) She gave treats to her boys, her hubby and son, which included this little porcelain guy who keeps showing up everywhere.

Happy Friends, Flowers and (welcome) Guests!

Love is Free-February Giveaways

FOLLOW ME on ilovefibeart blog & you may win one of several silk heart sachet kits which I will be giving away beginning next Monday! Once a week during February, I will draw a winner from followers names & send one of these heart sachet pillow kits to each lucky winner! Colors may vary and you may choose: Mom, Sister, daughter, friend, Mimi, Grandma, thank you or, of course, LOVE!

Hearts are already embroidered in kits...all you have to do is sew them up and fill them with your favorite herb (lavender!) or soft stuffing. Add a beaded or ribbon hanger and they make treasured ornaments or fragrant additions to bathroom, guest room, etc. I love to give finished sachets to teachers, friends, hostesses, and other favorite people. They also make special party favors for bridal luncheons & showers.

See all the different heart kits in ilovefiberart store or in my etsy store!

Happy week & Good luck!
