It's a part of who I am...

Creating heirloom pieces at present - leaving my footprint behind, and perhaps a little something extra for my loved ones in the future

HeartFELT Seasonal Memories.

The first Mandala that I created was from an established pattern . It was the little bird wearing the witches hat. I made it because my husband calls me "Little Bird" without fail...so when I saw this, I simply followed the pattern...
But then I started to create autumnal mandala's that meant something to ME. Each holds a special memory or tradition of some sort. The next one that I will make will be my son's black Kinjitsu uniform with special Fall inspired features to embellish further on it. These are my first five mandala's....many more to come; however, it is my first autumnal project this year - on this chilly day in Edmonton Alberta.

  1. OMG Lanie those are gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!!! LMAO at the Timmy's one! They are so detailed and pretty! How do you intend to display or use them in your home? Will you frame they or sew them onto a wall hanigng of some sort? They kind of remind me of Brownie and Girl Guide badges form when I was a litle girl. I love these so much and feel inspired to make some of my own. Thanks so much for sharing!

  2. Afternoon Shay! The Mandala's are meant to hang on a tree. I have a large indoor tree in my house that I will hang them on (They are the size of a coaster), and I will also add small orange fairy lights to the tree as the season draws near! Thank you...glad you like! :)

  3. Great idea to hang them, Lanie! I look forward to seeing a photo of the tree all decked out. :)
