my creative space..

I'm on a jar jacket mission, making lovely tealight jars for the shop, also lots & lots for a special occasion looming..
it seems I've been unraveling more than I've been finishing this week.  I think it's all got to do with that 'suffocating' feeling I mentioned last week.  Too many projects on the go & seeing them sitting in limbo, waiting for me to decide what to do with them next has got the better of me, so I've pulled them all & tidied up just a bit..
While cleaning up my yarn stash I found this gorgeous deep red.  It's the softest wool, the label says 100% lambs wool but gosh it feels almost like silk, so deluxe.  I've made a snugly neckwarmer out of it for someone special to be packaged & posted just in time for their birthday..

    Those votive jars are gorgeous Mel, they'll create such a lovely ambience when lit and look rather pretty lined up like that too.
    Gorgeous neckwarmer, love the colour :)

    The jars covers are beautiful, they're what caught my eye and brought me here. But the raspberry neck warmer is my favourite - it is absolutely gorgeous, lovely, lovely, lovely!

    NICE! I'm loving the richness of that red - lucky recipient! :) They will feel treasured I'm sure. And now you have me thinking. I have a whole bunch of little jars that I was going to fill with soy wax - and just never got around to... I might have to have a re-think! Thanks Mel!
