I have had this idea in my head for a while. I finally had the time to gather all my supplies and create this.
Its made from mostly vintage lace
and crochet pieces
I just love the way it turned out.
Its one of those things that came out just as I saw it in my minds eye.
Have a good week!!

Ok… so I have had a Etsy shop forever…..with nothing in it right now.
So I have been working on things to put in my little shop.
These are little vintage German doll legs that I soldered on top. Then I embellished then with jewels and hung them from tea dyed seam binding. 
And I made a few of these…but have only one left. I'm going to make more of the pocket style.
More to come…..thanks for looking!!

I love beads & jewelry and they are always a staple in my crafting supplies. I was looking around on the internet the other day and came across a bracelet that I loved. I remembered seeing this class at the local bead store, but I thought I could figure it out without a class.
I had to get the supplies and make one.
Here is my first attempt.
I wanted it to wrap three times, but I didn't have enough beads so twice is.
I really like the way it turned out.
There will be more.
I'm hooked. :)

Next Saturday the Marie Antoinette Mail Art group I belong to is having a Valentine Gala. There will be lots of wonderful prizes made by some very talented ladies.
I made this Marie Valentine wall hanging as one of the prizes today.
I just love doing the Citrasolv transfers and tea dying everything. I used one of the metal embellishments I bought at Urban Barn a couple weeks ago.
I'm surprised I got anything done this weekend. I was babysitting this little fur ball…..my granddaughters’ kitten Charlie.
I soo forgot what its like to have a kitten around. She was bouncing off the walls and into everything!!
Yes she's in the window behind the blinds trying to get out…….and then on to terrorize the birds.
She's gone for now…..but will be back on Tuesday again for few days. My granddaughter was so excited to get her back today. I do miss having her around. She has such a cute personality and she's so cuddly. Almost makes me want another cat….. that doesn't sleep under the bed all day.
Hope you had a great weekend!!

Well my bedroom is finally done……and I LOVE it!!
The color is so calm and relaxing. I love waking up in it every morning.
It makes me smile.
The color is actually more green than blue, but strangely it looks more blue than green on the wall……go figure.
I used burlap for the bed skirt.
I looked everywhere and couldn't find a burlap bed skirt. So I went to the fabric store and bought 8 yards of burlap. It was my intent to cut it in half and sew the burlap onto the existing deck of the one I already had. But after tucking it in to see how long I wanted it I just kept tucking and adjusting the gathers between the mattresses and wala……..a burlap bed skirt.
The best part is no sewing.
Boy was I happy!!
Thanks for having a look.
