Studio Ghibli craft swap

For the last few months I've been working on a secret craft swap on Instagram. I've took part in a few swaps this year but this has to be my favourite so far as I love anything Studio Ghibli! For my partner i made an art hoop which is something I've never tried before. It ended up being a mixed media piece using screen printing, embroidery, crochet and needle felting. I loved the outcome and already have lot's of idea to do others including some of my other favourite films Up and Brave.
I even made a huge effort with the wrapping too including cute soot sprites, this will be shipping out in a few weeks and i really hope my partner loves them!

Studio Ghibli craft swap- Totoro nesting Matryoshka dolls

A few months ago i took part in a Instagram craft swap and it was so much fun! I loved making things for my partner and in turn she made me some awesome things, so when I saw another swap for Studio Ghibli i couldn't resist. I'm making a couple of things for my partner but one of the small crafts is these nesting dolls. I'm so proud with how these turned out!

My neighbor Totoro inspired prints

Just for fun I designed some simple Totoro cards to screen print. I love how they turned out! I have a few for sale in my Etsy and Folksy shop....... I may have to keep one for myself.
