More Hearts, Hydrangeas, Home Decor and Giveaway Reminder

I was the very lucky winner of this gorgeous fabric from

Jillayne

(A Fine Seam)
(thank you just so much Jillayne - what a lovely thought!)

recently and loved it so much that I had to purchase more!

It inspired me to create more Hearts like these below:

adding burlap, vintage laces, an embroidered hankerchief

dyed scrim, tulle, netting

and this beautiful metal embellishment

from Liz included in an order I purchased from her 

Etsy Shop - visit Liz here to see her very 

 French inspired Blog and then over to

her shop.

Some more beautifully green tinged hydrangeas

(originally in blue tones)

were ready for drying

as well as these ones which were originally

in pink tones

And yes - another Heart but this one is flat

and backed in chocolate coloured felt

with more burlap, vintage laces

a suffolk puff and chiffon rose

dyed seam binding, guipure lace

and scrim

And just a pic of a couple of recent trays

I purchased
which I find are so useful for a number of projects
(as well as serving cups of tea on, of course!
or the odd glass of wine!)

as well as two small metal plates.

Somehow these items of metal, wood and silver plating

with etched glass on the clock seem to co-exist

very happily together!!!!

There is just one thing else to mention

and, that is,

and not a destination"!
