IT'S A WRAP .....

I got this jersey wrap dress in a charity shop in the summer for £3.

It's to cold at the moment to wear by itself so I've donned 

a t-shirt underneath, or you could use a thin polo neck jumper

Next I've thrown a jumper on top and added a 

knitted cowl. You could use a scarf.

Bring the ties from around the back to front and tuck 

your jumper in to give it a quirky look

Neck bow from Bodkin creates over on Instagram

then add a pair of thick tights 

and finally a pair of boots and off you go.

A winter outfit from a summer frock.

TAGS & BUNDLES

 My inspiration for this week's TAG TUESDAY CHALLENGE  came from these seed heads in my garden

 WWW.TAGTUESDAY.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK

 Staying on the theme of nature look at this cobweb I found this morning

 

PERFECT

 

 

Another tag, this one inspired by the colours of Autumn

 Along with some friends on the 1st December we are doing an experiment where we will bury or hang in the garden a number of things wrapped in a bundle of fabric and paper, leave it for three months and see what emerges.  After unwrapping the bundles and letting them dry out we will attempt to make something with it.

This is a hanging that was made in a previous experiment.  I hope mine turns out as well.

I'm jumping the gun a bit and have started one wrap already. I wanted to use the blackcurrants that were falling from the bush in our garden.  As you can see I've added a sliced pomegranate, raspberries, some spices and flowerheads to lace and tissue paper among other things.

 I put in some old torn book pages, map pieces and some handmade paper.

 Here's my bundle wrapped in twine.  You can the raspberries seeping through already.

And here it is stashed inside my rusty old typewriter in the garden, open to the elements where it will now stay come rain or shine until the 24th January or thereabouts.

Why dont' you do one of your own.  I am hoping for some nice pink effects from this one.  Rust and blue will be what i am hoping to achieve when I do the December one.
