The blue and white floral ribbon is one of my latest creations. This fabric is from the 1930's I was told. Just love the texture and the shabby colors!
Just LOOOOOOOVE these pom poms of baby blue hydrangeas......
I also made some time to play with overdyes and some new fabric I bought at Walmart. I had to mix several colors ro make this come out to avintage pink mauve color. I LOOOOOOOOVE how it came out!!!! I also had plans for this piece as you will see at the end of this post! I'm telling you your going to LOVE what I created!!!!!!!
When I went antiquing yesterday, I made out like a bandit! Can you believe I found this vintage shell art vase? I've been looking for something like this for years!!!! It's just such a fun and whimsical piece of art that you know I'm going to use to grace my flowers with!
More yummies..... ROSES.... Delish....
Here are the beautiful millinery hats I was LUCKY to find for the cheap price of $7 dollars each !!!! I found 5 of them at the antique store too! I'm still in SHOCK over my finds!!!!
Simply DIVINE....
For the pink overdyed fabric piece I can't wait to share!!!!!!
Look really close at all the details.....
Yay !!!!!! My Endurance banner !!!!!!!
Well gals, I can't wait for you to ask me some questions about my Endurance banner. However, it's very important that I add a disclaimer in regards to this Endurance banner. This banner was inspired by none other than Rachel Ashwell. I take no credit on the idea, creativity, and work that went behind Rachel Ashwell's banner. Also, please take note that the banner I crafted is different in several areas than hers. I created this for my own personal use and decor. I have no intention on crafting and then profiting from them in any way shape or form.
Thanks so much for stopping by, hope you enjoyed the pics!!!
XOXO~ Steph
