More ruffled scarves!

I've been shopping and sewing!!  I have three new scarves to share today.  The first scarf is a beautiful burnt orange with a bit of glimmer to it.  It's really very pretty!  (I know the color doesn't show up well in my pictures.)

 Here's a close up to show you the glimmery-ness!
The next scarf has shades of green and brown all running together.  Almost a camouflage look to it.  

 This last scarf is my newest creation!  I found this beautiful ruffled fabric at a local fabric store.  It comes in many gorgeous colors, but I chose a dark gray.  This scarf is 6.5"wide x 70"long.  I think it's beautiful!

If you're interested in purchasing any scarves please let me know.  The top two gathered scarves are $12 each, the gray ruffled scarf is $14.  Thanks for stopping by today!

Ruffled Scarves Anyone?

Recently, I searched for handmade scarves on Pinterest, and found a slew of them!  Beautiful scarves in all colors and styles!  I decided to try my hand at making a few for myself, and maybe even for Christmas gifts.  Take a look at my first two scarves.  I love this black and gray scarf: 
I "ruffled" these scarves using my sewing machine.  They are approximately 60-70 inches finished length.
This one is a brown and gold stripe: 

 I think I love this scarf trend!  A scarf can really make an outfit complete.  I have lots of extra fabric, and I'm planning to make many more of these scarves.  I'll be posting pics of two more colors soon.  

If you're interested in purchasing one or more of these scarves for yourself or to give as a gift, please contact me by e-mail:  pelpshd@earthlink.net.  Cost is $12 per scarf plus shipping.  I will calculate the exact shipping cost based on the weight of your package and your zip code.  Quantities are limited, so please don't wait to contact me.  Payment must be made by PayPal if I am shipping your order.  (If you live in the Milwaukee area, we can make other arrangements for delivery and payment.)

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great weekend!
