Yes, my name is corrie and I’m a clover yo-yo maker addict….’hi corrie’ you’re all supposed to say now! Its true, I am addicted to those little plastic yo-yo makers that come from japan in all shapes and sizes
so much so that I’ll be stocking them in my shop soon so that I can satisfy my addiction, the latest japanese magazines tell me that there is a butterfly one coming, oh heaven help me!
today I’m adding them to headbands…..they take a little longer than the regular yo-yo’s but are just perfect!
I’ve only made one flower one, that turned out a bit wonky, then I gave up! But onbiously practice makes perfect, better get it back out. Have you tried the heart shape one?
Those clover yoyos are very addictive. We have 2 circle ones and a flower one I think. I havent used the flower one as yet, but Isabelle does like your hearts!
I love them too, aren’t they cute?! I have some yo yo makers in the post – I can’t wait till they arrive!
Hi Corrie,
…oh well could be worse things to be addicted to I guess ..
I bought the tiny heart and tiny flower yoyo maker months ago, but still haven’t got around to opening the packet! I was planning on headbands for Maddy and clips (when she gets hair) and even embellishments on clothes. They look easy to use and great for pretty scraps.
Those are yo-tastic! I have just acquired a yo-yo maker but haven’t started yo-yo-ing yet…..
They are fun and addictive! I only have the round kind, I love it but the butterfly sounds great!
Would you be in total shock if I told you I had no idea what a yoyo was? I guess now it has something to do with these flowers, but still.. Am I weird? 😉
How quickly could you get one of these in the mail(if I paid a little extra)for me? I would love to make some of these for the festival I am doing in 2 weeks.
Seriously let me know, I love the way they have turned out.
LOVE the yo-yos Corrie, definitely worth the extra time to make the flower variety. At least the thing you’re addicted to is cute – people tend to think my sock addiction is some sort of weird foot fetish.
A butterfly sounds really intriguing. I am already amazed by the flowers.The other day I suggested to a friend to use yo-yos for her babies headbands. She was estatic and will make a headband to match every item she makes.
“Hi Corrie” They are so much fun! Have you just hand sewn the flower yo-yo on or glued it? xox
Love,love,love!! But will you sell those yo-yo makers in your shop? !!
I received the kaleidescope pattern book yesterday ; you are so quick!!! It’s as lovely as I thought ! MERCI!
I love these flower makers too. Have you tried putting a smaller circle of fabric on top of the big one so when you gather it up you get a different colour flower centre. My Mum taught me this trick.
Ohmygosh — a butterfly one??? We’re so screwed….
do you pull a bit of the fabric up from the back thru the hole? that looks sweet
