My family started drawing names for gifts last year, and on top of a big gift, we decided to have a few different categories to also draw names for.
Inexpensive gift, gag gift (always a fun one!), media, and handmade gift.
I was so excited to draw my little sister Julia’s name for the handmade gift this year. I mean, sorry boys…but girls are a little more fun to sew for. (grown up boys that is! little boys are fun-can’t wait to have one….though maybe I’m doomed destined to have all girls…)
Anyways…she just turned 13, so is loving all things teenager. You know, purses, accessories, etc!
So I made her a cute little Butttercup bag…(I am horrible at photographing black. Is there a trick?)
With a fun and bright pink lining!
A matching zippy wallet was needed, of course. I used Anna’s tutorial-loved it!
And every girl needs some hair accessories, right? These are made by melting the edges of organza circles over a candle (carefully!), and gluing together. Easy and so cute. 🙂
Really gorgeous.
Do you want to be my sister?
Lol.
super super cool, you have a lucky sister. 🙂
Adorable! I love those patterns! I have a hard time getting good pics of black too! Lucky sister 🙂
I love the lining in that bag against the black, and the wallet is adorable. Beautiful gifts, Jess.
I love that purse and wallet! 🙂 Cute fabric!
Such a lucky! Very cute wallet and matching purse;)
I Just love your blog! Love all your great ideas!
