The-Deer-And-The-Jennywren

The name of my blog derives from my Etsy shop of which I have huge ambition for to be a success. It may not seem it now, due to ill health, but I have so, so many ideas and half completed projects that have yet to see the light of day within my little shop. I hope to have some of them completed and ready for you to purchase in the near future. These pieces are created to showcase what I, myself, depict as ideals of beauty and I hope that you are able to see it too. From black and white silhouettes to ditsy floral antique coloured pieces to intricate Victorian inspired designs: I will create it all. Here are some of the things currently for sale in the shop & some that I've sold in the past.

   

3 Deers Design

 

Cream and black birdy design

 

Pink and black birdy design available in a double and single

And some sold out designs:

 

"Tweet Dreams" birdy design

 

"Oh Little Bird" Ditsy floral cushion

And if you think that it's only cushions and pillow cases that I create then you are very much mistaken. I have a whole variety of beautiful and stunning home wares that are in the pipeline. So keep your eyes peeled for those! :)

Postage is currently cheap so get them now!

Vintage Style Me

Here are some bits I'm loving this week from Vintage Style Me. They sell a lot of Vintage goodies alongside a load of hand-made pieces which are the bits that have caught my eye the most.

The skirt on the left is currently only £15 in the sale section. The dress in the middle is divine floral print in a velveteen fabric. It's up for £37.49 which is a bit too expensive for my tight budget, but lovely nevertheless! The last skirt is one that has been on my radar for quite some time now. For anyone who knows me may be aware that I have a bit of an obsession with cats and pigeons, so a combination of the two is a hilarious collaboration <3 I have noticed that it is now £22 but only used to be £20 which peeves me slightly. But I will be forever wishful that it may find its way into my wardrobe one day :)

On The First Day Of Spring...

...I decided to do an outfit post! I needed to leave the house anyway to pick up a prescription so thought it would be the perfect opportunity to do one.


 
Dress: Boohoo.com, Cardigan: Primark, Tights: Primark Slippers: Asda
The first day of spring was also the day I decided to go out the house without a coat feeling mildly comfortable though since having drafted this post, the weather has obviously decided to turn yet again and the feelings of true spring won't be happening for ages yet! Boo!
But yesterday was a good day.... I made my first Etsy sale to a stranger :D absolutely over the moon! It's given me the kick up the arse that I needed to create some more goodies. So I've even completed the cover that I used as a DIY in my post from last week, which you can now see over in my Etsy shop.

I hope she likes it!

Happy days :)

Tweet Dreams

I keep having all sorts of crafty ideas and so thought I would try out fabric paints.






I'm selling these pillow cases individually for single beds via Etsy. Check them out here:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/thedeerandjennywren :)

Oh Deer!

Today I decided to get my craft on and make some bunting for my bookshelf.




I've since decided to tea stain it to give it a more antique look and so that it stands out from my bookshelf. It was extremely cheap and easy to achieve. I may actually add some to my Etsy shop :)
To do it yourself you'll need paper doilies, ribbon, glue, bits of haberdashery, and patience :)
Simple!
