Button Poppy Brooch

[Samfa1984]

Hi Everyone, I'm a newbie to the boards so you may not have seen me around so HELLO

I make button Jewellery and other items in my spare time and sell them on Etsy and Facebook so will hopefully be able to share a few of my creations with you.

I've had a really bad weekend and haven't been dressed since Friday :/

However, I have just managed to make this lovely little Button Poppy brooch for remembrance day and will be wearing it with pride when I drag myself out of the house tomorrow! Hope you like it, Sam xxx

Hi Samfa, and welcome to the forum, we are a happy little band and you will find lots of lovely people with great compassion and knowledge, it with best site I've found

I love your beautiful poppy. I too have made some by doing needle felting, I was so pleased with the result of mine, now I've got friends wanting me to make some for them. Much fun when you enjoy doing some craft which helps take ones mind off pain and problems.

Welcome to the site Samfa, I hope you quickly settle in. I too make broches every year but always give any money to the charity. But I am afraid we musyt remember there is a no advertising rule amongst the regulations. I hope you have read them they are very useful and help the site to run smoothly. xxgins

Thanks Gins, I wasn't wanting to advertise, just wanted to show what I'd made for myself and let people know how much I love crafting and a bit about what I do in my spare time. Sorry if it came across that way.

I've made a couple for friends too and donated the money I made from them, would be so disrespectful not to!
