Pacman Resin Bangle- Waka waka waka

I love PACMAN! I made this for a little swap I was taking part in on Cut out and Keep. I can post it now as my partner has recieved it and hopefully she likes it as much as I liked making it!

I also made this little sloth tote for our swap. He's just hanging there on a branch that has heart shaped leaves. 

You can check out her blog here. I think she was happy with what I sent.  :)

Also the contest to win a sweet Halloween craft book is still open! BUT you now have less than 6 days to enter. So be quick! 

What does everyone think of the new ribbon design? Were the mad flowers better?

Kiki- Japanese Chin Pendant

Are you bored of the Jewllery posts yet? I was thinking I should perhaps rename the blog to 'Minnie Burton Jewllery!' Just because I haven't really done any other craft recently aprart from making earrings and necklaces and being obsessed with beads.
In my defence since I had a little accident and my eye got a little bit injured I've only been able to manage with large beads and chunky cords.. but I'm feeling so much better now so normal sewing type craft will resume soon.

In the mean time take a look at this little pendant I made. This was one I techincally "broke" my eye on but miracuously it came out ok.

I can't take credit for the pretty picture as this was drawn by a friend of mine. It was an originally a Christmas card that she sent out last year and in all honesty I was toying with the idea of just chucking it, but then I thought 'Nah! Kiki looks way to cute! I'll embed her!' Not literally of course but you  know what I mean.

I'm assuming this was the photo inspiration:

One tiny dog in a whole load of snow!

Button Resin Pendants

Some more resin pendants that I've been busy making... but this time with tiny buttons!

You might say that they're as cute as a button...God I'm sad! 

Anyway they have now been drilled and sanded and one has become a phone charm but the other two are reserved for necklaces. 

Pictures to follow shortly!

Cath Kidston and Vintage Scrap Fabric Resin Necklace Pendants

The resin jewellery making is going OK! I've actually had pieces that I'm really pleased with! But then on the other hand I have had a serious accident due to the resin making fun! Ah well swings and roundabouts?

The above picture are made from a tear-drop mould and are a mix of Cath Kidston scrap fabric and vintage fabric. I especially like the second from left one. So 70s! 

Here is one of the necklaces after it had been sanded, glossed and drilled.

Not sure if I like it hanging from a ribbon but am unsure  as to what else I can use. Suggestions?

Make Do And Mend Resin Bangle

So when I bought that resin sewing bit and bobs bangle, it got me thinking if I could produce the same sort of thing myself. It's just a natural reaction I seem to have to anything I buy, 'Could I have made that myself?' 

So I got Google-ling and realise that I probably could have made it myself. I then purchased myself some jewellery resin making supplies and have been messing about experimenting since. 

This one of the things I came up with. Inspired by the bracelet I already purchased because quite frankly you can never have too much sewing inspired jewellery.

I still need to file and gloss this one but I'm really pleased with how it turned out!

I got these little sewing decorations from my 99p store which are actually card decorations but they worked so well embedded in my bangle.

I added my own gold decorative paint to the sewing machine...not really sure if I like that part so much!

Ah well more of my pieces to come soon!
