A Pair of Crocheted Earthtone Happy Keepers

SGD10.90 (inclusive of postage)

These happy keepers/holders are here to help keep your things organised either at home or in the office. They are ideal for small items such as your crafting supplies and stationery (think ... brads, clips, stitch markers, beads, buttons and so much more). You can even stick your sewing needles and headpins onto the lids. How about putting some candies, sweets and chocolates in them? Display these on your coffee table. They are bound to add fun and cuteness to your home and office. And the best part is they are so stackable, saving you lots of space on your workdesk or shelves.

I've crocheted these happy keepers using double strand of acrylic yarn and they are therefore sturdy and can hold their shapes well :) They are in shades of sand, grey, fern green and ochre yellow.

Each holder has a base measuring 2.8 inches ( 7.1cm) across and a height of 1.6 inches ( 4.1cm) i.e without the lid.

Crocheted Small Apple Cozy - Yellow and Grey

No more yucky bruises on the apple with this apple protector or cozy :) This cozy will fit a small apple with a diameter of about 2.6 inches/6.6cm at its broadest part. And since there is some stretch in this design, it can also hold a slightly bigger apple or fruit e.g. peach :)

The yellow ribbon can be tightened to secure the apple inside. Even without the ribbon tie, the apple will not fall out of the jacket. The textured interior design provides a good grip on the apple. Just slip the cozy over a fruit. So easy-peasy!
