All the Fun of the Fair!

I love this project and to date have made three of these Ferris Wheels in different designs.  Another SVG Cuts Design. I'm a bit rubbish and remembering to photograph everything I make, one of the reasons I decided to blog, hopefully will be better at remembering so I can post!

 These are fully functional, both the carriages and the wheel rotate.  They can't hold heavy objects, but mini marshmallows, flying saucers (you know, the sherbet ones) etc. do work.  Great kids bedroom ornament , Birthday Party or Wedding table centre- pieces. (imagine it in black and white - very elegant).

Fr the crafters out there, the 12 x 12 papers here are DCWV -' Glitter stack' and 'All chalked up'.  The epoxy stickers are from my stash (of which my husband will tell you there is a lot), they are K& Co.  My friends are great at keeping me bits and bobs of ribbons etc, this pink ribbon came courtesy of BFF Jude.  Thanks Hon!  8mm dowel assist everything to move, purchased in Stranraer itself at Home Hardware/ Gardens.   The last thing needed is glue and I just don't think you can beat Anita's Tacky Glue. which I buy from Crafts U Love online.

About 5 hours work in each one.
