My newest creation is ready just in time to wish everyone Happy Easter weekend!
This striking stripy character doorstop owl has been made from a coordinating selection of brown and cream cotton print fabrics. Adjusting the pattern I created for my own range of doorstops, I cleverly stitched the eyes and beak in such a way that it can move around and look at you with those big button eyes from different angles. So cute! π
To decorate the character owl doorstop I used a selection of trims and buttons, some vintage and some brand new and finished it off with a lovely rich brown fabric tie with a shiny button stud.
As with all my new range of doorstops they are now shippable to anywhere in the world. Β A simple solution to the weight shipping costs and customs restriction problem (Import restrictions in some countries don’t allow for earth/soils/grit) solved by the new owner simply unzipping the base removing the inner zipped bag, which can then be filled with a weighting element, (sand/grit/stone etc) replaced, zipped back up again and a perfect character doorstop ready to keep those doors open to let summer in! I pay the postage so you can add the weight!

Thank you so much for your lovely comment Jackie π
I like to think making each one a little different each time adds even more to their uniqueness π
Jackie said:
You’re thinking is correct on that! It does add to the uniqueness of each one. I hope you and your family have a lovely Easter. π
