Needle Minders/Keepers added more

Post by Fizzbw »

Hi all,

I have a Facebook page, and an eBay account. Pm me on here or Facebook rather than eBay!!

eBay is Fizzbw

Facebook is

***** https://www.facebook.com/CirrusCreations" target="_blank. ******

I've been playing with needle minders and here are some I've made. All between £2.99 and £3.99 (needle safe ones). Incl UK postage.

I will post to outside the UK but will have to charge some postage costs.

I will be putting up more so keep checking back :)

Please PM me with your interest though I will check here as well. PayPal only.

These brass ones are great as the filigree keeps the needles safer and straighter than the more domed cabochons. They can all be also used as magnets for chart holders as well.

I can duplicate most of them if there is need :) (pictures taken without magnet attached but will come with one attached and second magnet.

This is one in use.

They are beautiful.. I had ordered a needle minder right before your first post. If I decide on more, you will be hearing from me. These are beautiful. The owl is so cute but the antique rose is beautiful. So elegant and delicate.

Thanks guys :)

I've always had needle minders but ended up using them as magnets, but now I found how to make these I always use one, they are so much better than the cabochon type IMO as they hold the needles on the top. Having said that I have loads of button and owl button and cab ones as well, they are on eBay under Fizzbw. But if you do like any of those pm here as I'll give you a discount ;) I have necklaces and rings on there as well.

Some more :)

Minions (best to check with me on availability, these are on eBay and selling well)

And a made to measure ;) one...

These are a work in progress as ATM I would need a physical photo. But would be same price as others. The actual area is 25 by 18mm.

Pm me if interested in any of them. I'm finding the filigree ones invaluable as the needles stay on them so much better :)

The horse is my beloved Fizz, who is no longer with me and who I miss so much still. It's fab to have him there!

I had a feeling that was your Fizz. He was gorgeous! And I'm glad he's on a needle minder so he's always around.

The Minion is so cute, but he's even cuter holding the needle because his expression is perfect...exactly what I would look like if I had a needle as big as my body stuck to me. :-)

Most of the ones I make myself are easy to duplicate, if not utterly exactly (variations of the pattern on some of them)

Image

This one is a one off though....

And this is an angled pic to show how the filigree holds the needle.

I love these new ones. I loved Brave. I think Postage across the pond would be a lot for one. I haven't used Needle minders much and the one I just bought (with a cat on it of course) doesn't really hold a needle too good. Fillagree would probably be better. But keep posting the pics. I so enjoy seeing them.

I love all of them...I think the ones of Olaf and the minions are my faves (other than the ones I already bought!). Fantastic job! I hope you sell lots and lots!
