Spending some “at home time” cleaning your closets? Perhaps they could use a little freshening up as well with a sweet smelling sachet. Ours are filled with epsom salts scented with essential oil. Fast, easy and economical.
There are many times you’d rather have two hands free (Look Ma… No hands!) This clever little zippered pouch is a fun solution. It can slip onto a belt or clip onto a belt loop – perfect for urban walkers and more.
Gather up your favorite scraps of fabric and trim, leftover buttons or beads, and some sheets of craft felt, then get ready to fire up your imagination for some ornament fun. A fantastic project to introduce kids to hand sewing.
Handmade wines, oils, and vinegars are such popular gifts! They deserve beautiful bags to put the bottles in! Our tall gift bags are lightly padded with fleece and foam to protect the bottle on its way from your kitchen to theirs.
Two sizes – tons of uses. Designed to be a perfect size to drop into a larger bag or tote, these little pouches are really too pretty to hide! They’re long and slim with a full 12” zippered opening. Use bold mix-and-match scraps.
Tissue boxes are much prettier these days, but still may not be right for your room. Personalize the look with your own cover. You’ll love the pop-from-the-top grommet! The free pattern download fits a standard square-style box.
A jar wrap helps absorb condensation, makes the jar easier to handle, and looks super cute. We show how to create pretty striped accent bands from a few fave pieces of leftover fabric, making it a fun ScrapBusters project.
The fresh blooms of Spring are always an inspiration. Celebrate by creating your own custom flower to wear on your jacket, in your hair, or pinned to your bag. Go bold and showy or soft and subtle – just like nature itself.
Using your sewing machine to join paper and fabric is surprisingly easy. If you’ve never tried it yourself, this is a great first project: not too complicated, yet still a very pretty way to send a special Valentine greeting.
With wonky piecework and a rustic feel, these sachets are all about the random. Hand stitched accents and a cute bow-tied-button make each unique and personalized. Use some of your favorite little scraps for a fast and easy gift.
Designed with little girls in mind, they can inject a bit of glamour into your lovely locks as well. The “petals” are made from tiny scraps of fancy fabrics held together with a tiny faceted bead. A nearly-no-sew project.
Fabric gift bags cut down on wrapping paper, instead creating a reusable bag that’s almost as much fun as the present inside – especially when made in lovely colors and prints. These feature a cool eyelet-and-cording top closure.
They’re made from leather remnants. The half-square triangles go together in a snap, and the soft wool-felt backing makes them safe for any surface. Super fast and easy. No edge finishing since neither leather or felt will fray.
Not only is this a delightful way to put some favorite fabric scraps to work, it’s also a great trick to extinguish a potential bad hair day. These cute little ties are fast, fun… and reversible. Beginner friendly!
Two coordinated pouches designed to clip together. Use one or both. Turn them into a mini shoulder bag or ditch the strap and toss one or both into a larger tote. Stash money and cards in one, make-up and extras in the other.
