Screen printing fun

I learnt the art of screen printing while assisting the lovely Helen Rawlinson (do check her work, she makes the most gorgeous things!).

I decided to invest in a kit last year with the idea of printing baby vests but after printing a grand total of four vests, I ran out of puff and time and the kit and the blank vests just lay there abandoned.

But as I've now set up a Facebook selling page and might have a stall at my WI's Christmas Extravaganza, I figured I'd best get printing again.

With the help of my (very patient!) hubby, I've spent a couple of evenings printing the stock of vests and some tote bags too.





Ok, they're nowhere near as original as what Helen makes but I'm happy with how they turned out. All of these are now on sale on my page, so go and have a look.

Headbands, headbands, headbands

The past few nights (yes, yes, nights!) I have been making a series of flowery baby and toddler headbands to sell on my page and at craft fairs.

With the right tools, they're relatively easy to make and they are very cute.






Of course I needed a model but luckily, I have one at home who was happy to oblige.



If you want to purchase one of these, please go and check my Facebook page: Handcrafted by Dealuna.
