Week 156 - Stylish Cat Tote Bag

Hi everyone.  It is Caturday and the time for cat crafts.  I was so excited to check the work of M, my human friend, that I stayed up until 2 pm.  However, M finished the work around 3 pm.  I couldn't resist to take a nap.  Did I miss to check the project?  Nope.  I am one of hard work cats.

This week, M made a very stylish tote bag.

Stylish Cat Tote Bag
Mainly, upholstery fabric and fake leather are used in this project.

A leopard fashion belt became handles of the bag.

M bought it for NZ$3 for three at K-mart.

Bag handles are quite expensive, as you may know.  So this is a good alternate.




Both side of cute cat cotton tape add a cat craft touch.




The liner is calico.

There is a pocket for the convenience.







I'm still sleepy.

But I am checking anyway.

Week 155 - iPhone like Miow Mirror

Hi humans and great kitties.  How are you enjoying the last day of February?  As I am working so hard, the time has past so quickly.  Humans need to be supervised by cats.  If I didn't do blogging, my human friend M would have spent every weekends lazily.  Keep up work, human.  Your cat is watching you.

This week, M made a hand mirror.  It looks like i-Phone.

iPhone like Miow Mirror


M used air-dry clay for this project.  The mirror itself is a recycle one.


It is so easy to make that M forgot to take a picture of making process.

The camera lens part is a rhinestone.







Is this to be checked?

It is not a phone.

Week 154 - Elegant Kitty Headband

Hi crafty people and wonderful kitties.  How are you enjoying this weekend?  I usually enjoy sleeping at the best place in my house.  The windowsill is a sunny spot but it becomes too hot to keep on sleeping.  My bed is comfy, the sofa is good for change and the chair is cozy for a short nap.  I am sorry for people who cannot sleep in the variety of place like we do.

Anyway, it's Caturday.  Let's start checking this week's cat craft project.

Elegant Kitty Headband

My human friend M made a headband.  She used an old headband and remade it.



She taped the headband frame with thin black nylon fabric.








And attached black net and gold organza shaped as ribbons, then sew a large black button and attached a cat charm.








Is this the project to be checked?


Okay, I am checking now.

Week 153 - Love Cat Wreath

Good day, everybody.  I am a Kiwi cat, Daisy.  How's your weekend going?  In Christchurch, NZ, the cricket world cup is now on.  Unfortunately it is not fine or warm day, today.  And I also heard that today is a St.Valentine's day, which means I can eat more delicious food.  Right?

Anyway, my human friend M made something related St.Valentine's day.

Love Cat Wreath

This week M made a cute cat wreath for St.Valentine's day.


The core of the heart is made with cardboard.  M attached red pompoms on it.

The letters are cut out from denim with zigzag stitches and embellished with a fish button and rhinestones.





The ribbons are made with fluffy leopard fabric.

M told me that this shows her love and passion to cats.  Ah...I prefer gourmet food but thanks anyway.







I am checking the cat part .


I prefer gourmet food...

Week 152 - Pinky Cat Book Cover

Hi craft lovers and gorgeous kitties.  The holiday season is now over and people are back to work here in New Zealand.  Some people say, 'cats are lazy and everyday is holiday for cats'.  I disagree.  Looks like lazy is our nature, but we are busy.  Every animal is busy to live, hopefully to live happily.  Don't you think so?

Anyway, this week's project is here.

Pinky Cat Book Cover

My human friend, M made a cute book cover this week.


It is made by calico and cat print cotton fabric.

The bookmark ribbon is attached with pink cat applique.








The end of the bookmark is a silver plated cat charm.








The right is the book cover that M made in June 2013.

I remember I checked this.










And I am checking the new one.

Week 151 - Gradation Cat Hair Clip

Hi every craft lover and cat.  How are you?  One month has already past in 2015.  Is your new year's resolution going well?  Mine?  I forgot what I decided.  Mmm, sleep well?  Maybe, nap well?  Being a good cat?  I've already been a good cat.  My human friend M keeps on doing cat crafts every week.  This is the 151st week.

M made a hair clip this week using polymer clay.

Gradation Cat Hair Clip



She made five shade of blue (not fifty shade of grey) by mixing blue and white clay.








Then cut out as a cat shape and attached the hair clip.

Baked in the oven for 15 minutes, it becomes harden as plastic.







I'm checking before bake.

And after bake.

Week 150 - Purr Cats Coffee Mug

Hi everyone.  Are you enjoying your weekend?  It is toasty warm here in Christchurch.  Good for napping but I am staying up for checking this week's project.  So what is this week's project?   Let's have a look, shall we?

Purr Cats Coffee Mug



Last two weeks my human friend M made something related coffee.  This week, she made an original mug.  She bought $1 plain mug and drew a logo just like Starbucks.

The rough sketch left is that she drew at first.







And then, she changed the cat like the left.

The final cat drawing has a bird on the head instead of a star.







I'm checking anyway.
