Bottle Angels

 I finish up some angels today.  I used old bottle for the bogies and add glitter and old beads to the inside of each bottle.  I used some old vintage porcelain doll heads and added wings, a little lace and ribbon.

Button Button Who's Got The Button?

 I love vintage buttons and decided to uses some to make some bracelets and ear rings.

 I used large jump rings to join the buttons.

Mermaid Paper Doll

Art For The Creative Mind had a mermaid paper doll swap.  I made the doll first by using the image of a bathing beauty from a vintage 50's postcard.  I made her serval tails to choose.

 Than I created a card.  She can be removed from the card.  I wanted this to be like the paper dolls I grow up with.  So the inside of the card has pockets so her tails have a place to store.

Cones

 I received these cones from Debbie Hodge.  I painted them and added german glass glitter.  Used rhinestone pins and earrings (after I removed the pin backs)  to the front of the cones.  I used filigree findings to the sides-bent them over to move a message for the ribbon to go through.

I think they will look lovely on my tree for Christmas.

Shadow Boxes

 I had some fun putting these together.  I like to think these two people knew each other-pass love, someone parents, maybe grandparents.  So now I have two treasure shadow boxes for display.  Who do you think they are?

Charms

I love making charm bracelets.  This one is made with my left over charms I have made for other projects.  So there is a little bit of everything.

A Little Art

I had these for a long time and finally made a little hanging piece with them.  I painted them green and than uses alcohol ink to them.  And of course a little sparkle with glitter.

Drilled holes in the top, added wire loops for hanging.  Used some old chain to connect them.  Embellished with some bright ribbon.

Now will hang them in my studio.

Boxes

 I was in a box mood-First one is a little of Paris

 This one is a little of Paris also-  I painted them and then add german glass glitter.  Added filigree legs and embellish

 This box has a wire mesh across the top.  I used hand made paper the cover the bottle and the top painted gold-  Added ribbon and the gold angels.

By The Sea Crown

 Love this crown-mermaids are one of my favorite things.  The Kit is from Swoon With Deb Hodge.  She supplied all the brass and rhinestones.  I added a few more rhinestones-never can have enough bling.

Rusted Grunge

 Art For The Creative Mind tag swag--theme rusted grunge.  Love to make rusted grunge things.

A Couple of Necklaces

I am starting to get ready for our big Holiday House here in Palatka.  So  here are a couple of necklaces, to start me off.

Old Spoon Holder

I found this old spoon holder and just had to have it.  I sanded and painted and added images and sealed.  Now I have a great place to hold necklaces.

Another Altered Box

 I also found this box at Good Will and of course I altered it.  This one was fun - it has a fun shape.

A Box From Good Will

 I found this box at Good Will and altered it.  I used Graphic 45 paper.

About Me

I wanted to do something for me.  So, I took tis letter B and added inks for color,  some glitter, a chain and a bow.

Then I hung it in my studio.  Love it!!!
