Play Mat

Hi Friends..


I stitched this play mat for my son who loves car…I have used black velvet  cloth for roads and felt cloth for the buildings. 
 I tried to bring all details wanted by my son like school, zoo, police station, swimming pool, railway station and more important one is speed breaker. For that I made a pocket in the road and inserted a small plastic tube to give some dimension and stitched it. 

Speed breaker..

Desk Organizer

Hi Friends..

I made a desk organizer for my craft things with biscuit and toothpaste boxes..The center design is the negative of punches..The brown paper is from a paper bag..





Pen Stands are made with toothpaste boxes…I draw the designs on an old invitation and colored it.



Before starting the project I thought of combining the two pen stand with that organizer later I drop it out and made them separately because it will occupy more space..Now I love my neatly arranged table (at least for few minutes)…
The boxes used are..
