today i received my bloom loom in the post!
i originally saw this on pinterest, the original website is here and i bought one pretty much immediately because i thought the flowers it made were so cute!
from craftcritique.com
follow the link to see how you use the loom! its basically weaving around the little pegs, to create the “petal” loops, and you can use multiple colours or just the one, do extra layers for chunkier flowers, whatever your heart pleases! i bought mine on ebay, just searching for bloom loom, and i believe including postage it was 3 pounds. you probably could, if you so wished, make one but i was far too lazy and impatient for that!
my photos are, of course, bad quality (when arent they) but here is my first couple of goes!
and here’s one up on my wall, above the picture i made the other day, and was able to hang using the magical 3M picture hangers!
i have to admit i used one of the flowers there because the hanger was peeping over the top of the picture frame because i hung it too high… but i think it looks pretty cute there 
sorry its zoomed out, but incidentally see the top gear book in the bottom left corner, covering the light? yeah, that. the light is too bright when we are in bed, its not really a bedside light. especially when marty wants to stay awake and im trying to sleep, so we cover it over with the book to dim it a little. even with a low watt energy saving bulb, its too bright. im currently contemplating how i could pretty up the shading of the light, rather than a hardback top gear book!! hmmm…..
thanks go to marty for helping me with the links in this post he is a little gem sometimes! its great having an IT professional in the house!
