PinChicks Challenge

 

 

Hello Pinchicks and all other visitors to my blog, its so nice to 'see' you all.

 

let me explain the PinChicks challenge for any of you newbie visitors, we are a small group of crafty ladies (men welcome too, and the kids)

 

every month we browse pinterest and see which project gets us interested and thats the one we attempt to make.

of course there is the possiblilty of some fails but that's all part of the fun. we still want to see project even if it goes totally wrong.

(we won't laugh.....well maybe just a little bit)

 

 

as my crafty friends will already know i'm not having a very good time at the moment and a dark cloud hanging over me has zapped me of all motivaton but the last thing I want to do is let my friends down so I am trying hard to still make something.

 

I have chosen a tiny apple keyring this month because it looked like it wouldn't be too much of a huge challenge and i was right!

 

 

I am an apple collector so this appealed to me.

I have a few apples made from wood, glass and silver. It all started when I walking round a carboot sale and a little wooden apple caught my eye. a week or two later I found an adorable 925 silver one and the collection started. I don't go out looking for apples, they find me!

there must be some hidden meaning but I'm not sure what it is yet.

 

this little crochet apple didn't take me very long at al so I decided to find another apple on pinterest and add that to this months post.

 

 

this one looks more like an apple don't you think?

the first looks like a cherry.

 

and here they are together to give an idea of the size..

 

 

I'm actually proud of myself for making these when I really just wanted to hide away in my nest and let the world carry on without me.

 

(Margaret and Abby,  thank you both for giving me the strength to carry on and the push I needed)

 

I hope you will pop over to see the others members of our group to see what they have done this month.
