The Teapot Lighthouse

The first of many more

Wedding plans are in the air since I got engaged and I have decided to make my own flowers for the wedding that way I can save money, use them as favours and they last forever while looking pretty. For the last few weeks I have been looking up how to make flowers of different shapes and sizes I the hope I can understand what needs to be done to make them look professional and not just a craft flower Made by a five year old (no offense).
After deciding that ribbon flowers were impossible I started looking up felt flowers which seem more manageable.

However I thought no let’s give it one more try for the ribbon flower and wahlaa I have made a small rose like flower which once I got just was quite good. It was all down to Pinterest and the wonderful Joann Joann, the way Joann explains what to do is understandable and I can now make a rose in different colour and sizes to make my bouquet and other flowers for the wedding

The Teapot Lighthouse

The beginning

So… Where to start, this is my first website where I’m going to make something of myself.

You might be wondering why The Teapot Lighthouse? Or maybe not, but anyway it originated from a mad five minute talk about website names and thus here I am and hello.

Obviously it’s early days and I’m under construction, so I will be experimenting with ideas as well as making an image that will reflect the name of the site and to be nice I’m going to share my pri sketches so you can see how it came about.
