Last week was my mother's birthday. I will see her tomorrow because I couldn't go last week. I didn't want to go empty handed so I bought her a few make-up items, which I'm sure she will love. Then made her a super cute Zip Clutch to carry everything together. I bought this pattern a few months ago but since I've not been sewing much lately it had to wait until now. The fabric has been in my stash for a long time, I got it from my local fabric shop and the lining is solid purple.
I loved the process, it was VERY easy but at the same time I learned a few new tricks. That's one of the best things about Keyka Lou's patterns.
As soon as I started to pick fabrics and zipper I noticed that I seriously need to buy more zippers. This baby pink was the closest match :S. I also added purple ribbon to the zipper pull after I took this pictures.
These would be the make-up items that I'm going to give my mom as a birthday present, glittery nail-polish, super hardcore mascara and a lipstick.
Hello Yadira. I always wanted to make gifts for my loved ones. But you see, I'm not really good in crafts. I'm sure your mother would love your beautiful and art from the heart gift. Happy birthday to your mom. :)
ReplyDelete@ Diane: I know you can make things! I read a post on your blog the other day about your custom notepads. I bet your family would happily welcome those as gifts. Thank you very much as always and I'll make sure she gets your good wishes.

ReplyDelete@ Kyatarin: Guess what? I gave her my ipod with this post open so she could read your comments last night. She said "Thanks!" and she loved the clutch and make-up!
