A Little Stash of Treasures

Ooh just look what I found in my Victorian Closet today  ~




these are just asking to be made into something new and lovely don't you think?


recycle   ~   rethread   ~   reuse

It's now the final couple of weeks of college so I need to concentrate on finishing my course work. After that I'm looking forward to making some new pretty things during the summer break, and I need to as I'm very pleased to report that I've sold a couple of things in my online shop.  How lovely! Lots of incentive now to restock the shop.

Next I wondered how a lacy photo would look in soft focus so I added a couple of feathers and softened the photo:


And softer:



I'm thinking of producing these as a range of cards or postcards and perhaps using them as sticky labels as well ~ I always send purchases in beautiful wrapping as I think it all adds to the enjoyment of buying.
