Finally My Own

What to post for WHITE WEDNESDAY?

You know I suffer from short term memory loss.
I do?
And then I remembered something from
a recent crafting...recent as in this morning.
Now that's really short term...

For about a year now I have seen variations of
the baby show pin cushion from
Dawn's The Feathered Nest and just
last week one at an antique mall.
With a ginger jar filling up with shoes
today was the day to put
my own spin on it.

I didn't follow the safety rules while operating the
Dremel tool on the wooden block or
while using the pliers to remove the
clip-on part of this earring.
But all turned out well and with no injuries.

Even a bit of rusty red on the ribbon
because ya know...

Yesterday I served up some chocolate,
today how 'bout some sweet RED cherries.
And what do you White Wednesday gals
think about this sink?

May all your
WHITE WEDNESDAY
and
REDNESDAY
dreams come true~~

Hope you take time to visit
Faded Charm Cottage
and
It's A Very Cherry World!

Inspired by a Purple Pansy

Last week I shared this picture of a cute little girl
holding a purple pansy. Wanting to go out
and play in her garden.

While it has been too hot around here
for playing outside in my garden, I have
been playing inside with flowers~~
paper flowers.

Whilst dreaming of the real thing...

I was making purple paper pansies!

Taking inspiration from Dawn at
The Feathered Nest and a little more from
KC Willis at Lipstick Ranch,
this is what I put together.

The base is a canvas board of 16 x 20
wrapped with vintage material.

Love this quote from Alice in Wonderland.

I am going to enjoy her for a little bit and
then add her to my small inventory
in the Rock Candy Shop.

For more outdoor wonders please check
with our gracious hostess Susan at
A Southern Daydreamer

"Want to Go Out?"

So the first creation from my new 'studio'
just rolled out.

Muslin strips and tea mixed to become the
frame for this cute little picture.
Well, not that little...11x13 1/2.

I was very pleased with the finished piece,
and think there was just enough material
left for a little dress.


Hope you enjoy it too!
