Greetings!

I am a homemakin' mama to four beautiful children and married to one very hard working man.

I try to make a little extra income for the home through my online shops at Etsy.

I love art in all it's forms and will try new things when given a chance, so ya never know what I'll be getting into next.:) I get bored easily so I like to be able to know how to do many kinds of creative things so that I can go from one kind of craft to the next whenever I feel the need to.

I hope that you find what you are seeking...or not seeking.:) Everything I make is done with much care in hopes of creating something of high quality that will last for a long time.

I can also do custom orders for some things. All one needs to do is ask if I haven't already wrote in my listing that I will do so. The worst I could say is that I can't do it but more than likely I can.:) Please enjoy your stay. ~Salina~

My First Fabric Flowers

I have been seeing so many lovely fabric flowers on etsy and other places lately and so I thought that I try my hand at it as well.
Here's the result of my efforts.:)


I am so pleased with them too.


I had an old cashmere or cashmere blend sweater that was too small for me that I chopped up into different sized strips with the purpose of making different sized flowers. The thought did cross my mind that maybe I should give the shirt to someone who could wear it but I just couldn't get it out of my head that it would make beautiful flowers.:)


I even added an old cloth covered shank button to one and a glittered star to another.

Then I was inspired to make another journal with one of my flowers glued to the front. I love it.
I will probably put it up for sale in my Etsy shop soon unless I keep it for myself. But I really don't need more journals...for real.:)

Actually...I may even sell some of these flowers too or just use them on other projects. Not sure yet.

  1. The flowers are beautiful, Salina! The cashmere worked really well for the project. And the flower looks so nice on the journal. :) Great work!!! Theresa
