One World One Heart 

was created by Lisa Swifka in 2007 as a way to bring bloggers together from all over world. Last year over 900 bloggers took part from 28 countries, so I am very excited to be participating in this event!

I have three different giveaways:

A mixed media covered A6 journal/notebook, covered in gorgeous Cath Kidston paper and decorated with fabric, paper, buttons and ribbons (with the word “love” stamped on, it being that time of year!)….

One of my “Mend & Make Do” sewing boxes, this one is a covered wooden box decorated with vintage ribbon, pages and buttons…

And a crochet corsage that I made, with a gorgeous covered button in the center and brooch pin at the back…

This giveaway is open to everyone, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post and you will be entered in the drawing .

We are almost finished four more bench cushions for Kellys Bar in Galway (hurray!) and I also finished my sewing boxes (Mixed Media/ altered-art wooden cigar boxes):

I am delighted with them, They are covered with copies of sheets from an old Irish-English dictionary, with gorgeous old Irish/Gaelic lettering, then further embellished. I just have to pack them full of all the lovely necessities for mending and making do!

This is a journal cover I made (not an easy task, with baby on my knee brandishing a glue stick and flinging buttons all over the place!!) It is A5 size, and I’m hoping to have a similiar style one for the giveaway… just have to do a few finishing touches and take some photos…
