Hanging by a thread

Here are some photos of a recent item I've made, my pastel bunting/ garland/ banner collection of felt hearts! I got the inspiration from a photo I saw of white linen hearts. It looked so pretty! So I ordered some pastel felt from my supplier, made one up consisting of 16 pastel coloured hearts ranging from pinks, white, creams, blues and greens and I now have them available on Etsy for custom orders.




The amazing thing is, how popular they are! I have received 6 orders in two weeks just for this! Since I started Lullaby Mobiles and Designs, I always wondered if I would make something that would be become my most popular product, and this seems to be the one! I have so many treasuries and favourites on Etsy for these and it's so encouraging!
 This lovely soft pink one was a special order that went to the states (and I really hope it got there in time!) for a special little puppy called LuLu who has turned 2 and her owner is throwing a special puppy party in her honour! How sweet!

Every heart is hand cut, hand stitched and hand stuffed by me and I threaded through about 12 feet of sheer white ribbon. The hearts are movable along the ribbon so you can make the gap between each heart smaller or bigger depending on how and what you want to decorate :-)
These are available on Etsy for US$20 each (NZ$25)

Once orders quieten down a bit after Christmas I will introduce some other colours.

Have a great weekend!
Nicola
