Wishing you a happy day.

Hello ...

thank you, thank you so much for such kind and very welcome comments.

I have missed my Blog and thought that an Email Newsletter would fit the bill, not so.

Feeling encouraged and excited to start blogging again.   

I picked up an old wedding tiara recently, with wax flowers...inspired, I started to make my own paper/fabric waxed flowers.

I use old and my hand made stamens, making a little scene with a hand sculpted bird set in a vintage tin. 

The making of these is very time consuming.  Individually creating each component, finding the right vintage tin and tiny boxes and thimbles, assembling into a tin, the embroidery, machine embroidered text and fixing everything in it's place is a very long process....

but each and every minute making is an absolute joy to me.

If you would like to see more photos/details, please stop by my online shops

Hello...

any body out there?

If I kicked my blog off again, would I be just talking to myself, I wonder?
