Hi Twiddley Fans,
Jennifer Hodge is with you today.
I think these chairs from
Twiddleybitz are super cute and have loved all the soft feminine chairs that
people have created with them but I wanted to do something a bit different!
Christmas gave me the perfect opportunity to make Santa's Chair!!
I started by painting the poppy colourspray onto the MDF -
spraying doesn't work so well as it beads on the wood.
Then I glued all the pieces together with pva - this was
super easy as they slot together perfectly!
Embellishing the chair was again extremely easy as I used a
Christmas embellishment pack from my2angels.net!
I didn't have to make any pins, rosettes, tags or do any embossing!!
Here's the gorgeous rosette on the front of the backrest and
the two 'star cushions'!
I did however sew the pincushion!!! yay me! dusted off
the sewing machine - it's been a while BUT I cheated with the Santa Sack and
put cushion stuffing in a pre-made organza bag :-P. I added the green
sparkly ribbon from the pack and the gorgeous charming chain too.
And a side view too :-)
