Thanks to everyone for your overwhelming interest in this project!!
I have been asked if the pattern and instructions will be available for this piece,
I will not be offering them at this time as they lay in an organized chaos on the work table
only to be understood by the crazy person who designed them...moi.
I have two cases available in
I'm very happy with the way this project worked out. It was a time consuming piece but I love the vintage styling and can't wait to add it to my apothecary.
The labels are a mix of my own, which you can find the link to by clicking on the picture below.
I also used a few labels on the bottles from one of 7 Gypsies collection:
The labels which remain were used from magazine ads and manipulated with Photoshop, and are part of my collection.
Your hard work certainly paid off. You have created a fantastic reproduction of that expensive case. I like your faux leather better than the original.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah!

ReplyDeleteHi Chai, sorry not at the present time, this would take quite a bit of planning to turn into a tutorial. I would like to put my efforts into getting a few of these made and putting them up for sale.

ReplyDeleteHi Tracy, thank you, it was a labour of love, except for the odd moment when chucking the whole thing across the room would have felt great! I'm glad I kept with it, your right can't wait to add it to my Halloween decs.

Hi Denice, I don't have the pattern up for sale at present. It is a pile of organized chaos on my work table right now...sorry.
DeleteThis is fantastic!!! I agree with the other here...yours looks a lot better than the original ...great job....tfs
ReplyDeleteGloria, Wow thank you so much♥
DeleteHave you considered making these cases for sale? There's bound to be others who don't fancy paying the price of an original, but would be happy to pony up for such a first class reproduction.

DeleteThat is very cool and kudos for pulling it together because it looks very complicated. The labels are fabulous and I could kind of picture it being carried around by Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman herself:)
