Within

I finally finished the little, mixed media, heart pillow I was working on.

It was inspired by my friend, Sharon.

Sharon makes the most amazing jewelry, and has used the word "within" on some of her pieces.

I'm pleased with the way this pillow turned out, but the photos aren't the best.

I'm really enjoying working with some of the vintage textiles I've been gathering.

The tiny burgundy rose was a broken button, the ladies face was an old broken brooch that I took apart, and the charm was an Etsy purchase.

The lace came from the sleeve of an antique wedding dress and the velvet was from an old vintage dress as  well.

The base of the pillow was made from gray felt.

I crocheted around the edge and added some silver seam binding for a bow.

Almost everything I used for this project was recycled.

Have you made something lately with recycled materials?

I'd love to see your ideas!

Thanks for stopping in!

I hope the sun is shining in your world today!
