ART: Deck the Halls for RonlovesHermy

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Title: Deck the Halls
Artist: kittehkat
Recipient: ronloveshermy
Rating: So very G
Warnings: None.
Artist's notes: I created two pairs of simple felt ornaments inspired by the boys, particularly in their Marauders/just-after-Hogswarts era. One celebrates their animagus forms, and the other celebrates the ship and their interests. NOTE: I made these with the intention of sending them to my recipient – if you're comfortable with/able to receive mail, I'd like to pop these in the post for you so they get there in time for holidays. Just leave a comment I can reply to or private message me and I'll get back to you and get the details! (And if she can't receive them/doesn't want them, they're open for claim.) I hope you have a good holiday season, ronloveshermy!















Padfoot and Moony!


Star and moon with personal silver charms sewn on.


Sirius' charm.


Remus' charm.


Happy Holidays, everyone!

Very creative! I love the charms.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I saw them and I could not resist!

[werewolfsfan.livejournal.com]

You are AMAZING! And ronloveshermy is a lucky, lucky fangirl! I change my mind about which is my fav every time I look. Where ever did you find a motorbike charm?

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! I found them at a national craft store chain in the US, Michael's, in the expanded bead/jewelry section. They were in a little sterling silver-plated charm display. I don't know which one I'm more surprised to have found, honestly!

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Hee, your icon matches! Thanks!

[minnow-53.livejournal.com]

What an original use of the prompt, and such adorable ornaments! ♥ The charms are especially inspired. *loves*

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I know I'm pushing a bit of fanon on it, but can we really deny Remus/tea? Hahaha.

[cherie-morte.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness, that is the sweetest, most original little idea! What a lucky recipient, these are adorable!!

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Eee, thank you! :) I usually draw something but I felt a little more restless this year, so...

[cindergal.livejournal.com]

How creative! And the charms - so sweet.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you! The wee motorcycle nearly killed me with cute! And then I saw the teapot and melted. Haha.

[mezzopianoforte.livejournal.com]

THIS IS AMAZING!!

[mezzopianoforte.livejournal.com]

...and if she can't receive mail, I'll totally claim them for you :p

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Heh, good deal! I'll bother you if they need adoption! And thank you, glad you like them!

[lotrwariorgodss.livejournal.com]

Aha! Now I see what our wreath was doing on the closet door. ;)
Very cute! Glad to see the finished product, and I still love that Remus's charm is a little teapot.

[werewolfsfan.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm afraid Remus/tea and Sirius/motorbike can give Remus/Sirius quite a bit of competition!

[brighty18.livejournal.com]

OMG!!!Those are awesome! ronloveshermy is SO lucky! What a darling and original idea, and how cool it get something in RL, too!

I love that sparkly, starry felt, btw.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

I'll admit... I just really love sending mail. :x Heh.

I saw it and knew that the shapes needed to happen. Heh. But omg, I was covered in glitter after sewing it. lol

[crooked.livejournal.com]

omg that is SO cute! what an awesomely inspired use of the prompt! i might have to steal your idea and attempt to make some similar ornaments (lolol idk why i said icons) as personalized gifts for friends :D

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you, thank you! Steal away! I wanna see what you do! :D

[yndigot.livejournal.com]

! They're beautiful! You're so good with the crafting! Wow...

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Luckily you can't see my uneven stitching... lol But thank you! :)

[livinglibraries.livejournal.com]

oh wow I am so jealous!!! these are so cute and I love the charms, it's an original idea.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I saw the charms and threw them in the basket, then saw the sparkle!felt, and that was that!

[dear-tiger.livejournal.com]

Oh god, you rock! Motorbike charm! I am so surprised and so jealous (in a good way, hehe) right now. Major credit to you for the idea and, of course, the work itself :)

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Eee, thanks! :3 The motorbike charm was like HEY LOOK HOW CUTE I AM!!! (in an excited, tinny, small voice of course) and I was all, psht, agreed! (maybe aloud because I'm crazyyyy), so the ornaments were born. :D

[besamislabios]

This is fabulous, so creative, adorable, and soft-looking. *pets*

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

The glitter felt is surprisingly scratchy and starchy-stiff feeling. :| But, the others are soft! This is true! Thank you!

[oneturtlebug.livejournal.com]

What an awesome idea.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[giddymorose.livejournal.com]

Love it!! Great idea and the designs are lovely - putting the charms on them was a lovely finishing touch.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks, I thought they needed something!

[starkdependant]

GORGEOUS. these are absolutely lovely.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you! And also, I have always been in love with your username and thought I should let you know. Haha.

[brissygirl.livejournal.com]

These are fabulous! I have an R/S shipper on my flist who is going to be very jealous of your recipient.

You did a great job, it must have taken a while for you to make them all.

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

You know, I usually do digital art for this exchange, and I think that actually traditionally takes me longer. And with writers, with having to do the planning, the writing, and editing, as well as waiting for the beta, I'm sure they have the longest process of all. This was done over the course of a couple nights whilst listening to the TV, and it was fun, so it didn't feel too bad at all.

[bewarethesmirk.livejournal.com]

This is so fabulous and very creative. :)

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Why, thank you!

[secretsolitaire.livejournal.com]

This is wonderful -- so creative! :-)

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Hee! Thanks! I wanted to try out something different just for kicks!

[archduck.livejournal.com]

Fantastic! The attention to detail is lovely. ♥

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Heh. Thank you! I think the most fun details are the charms, though, which I just found and sewed on, but I was happy to find them!

[remuslives23.livejournal.com]

What a lovely, original idea! And a wonderful keepsake for your recipient. Well done!

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Delicious icon. :D Heh.

Thank you very much! I hope they find a happy home! :)

[leafyaki.livejournal.com]

How very adorable! ♥ And I'm sure many have mentioned it already, but how incredibly original too! :D I'm sure ronloveshermy will ADORE them~ Love the detail and care you put into this!

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you! Just wanted to do something different this year! :)

[kittehkat.livejournal.com]

lol You mean wobbly-stitched and silly? :) Honestly, they wouldn't ever be allowed near my family's tree since it's super-conformist and decked only in cream/gold/opalescent colors. Maybe that's why I decided to be silly. Heh. Thank you so much! :)
