Good Monday Goings On! Giveaway Winner Announced Tonight
Good Monday to you!
Last week I went down to the basement studio,
which now that I have a very cozy but sunny
guest room upstairs ,
I admit I only go down to the basement if I am going to use anything bigger than a micro torch, the big ol drill press, Extra messy stuff that needs a little more ventilation etc.
Well, I still have a LOT of stash down there because my old map cabinets will not fit in the
upstairs room. So, their are tons of old map drawers FULL of goodies , and when I get into them its like Christmas!
On this trip , I gathered what I could which is basically 2 fistfulls of just stuff!
No rhyme or reason really, whatever just caught my eye.
The weird stuff in the upper left , are silk pods! I have
had them for a couple of years and just haven't figured out
a good use for them yet. But , I can feel it coming !
Any how, I took one of the antique buttons, and the vintage buckle,
and they became this bracelet,
On one of my Etched cuffs.
Then on Saturday, I got this little package of awesomeness
They are in the "me just sitting and admiring them stage" right now.
It may be just a bit before they end up as something. I just love them!
I wanted to make some more findings to share as well! So here are some new
things to play with. Instead of framing the china completely, I have made them drops.
I used all flow blue, and English Transferware from 1850s through 1890s.
This one has the moon on one of them,
and I thought that was pretty cool.
I wanted the edges of these drops to appear as though they shards from the ocean,
or buried in the ground etc.
Very worn over time.
I am listing some to play with in my Etsy store tonight.
Also these tiny little cast pewter charlotte dolls. This tiny
size are perfect for earrings etc.
Last post I said it would be 8pm eastern to announce the winner of the spot in the "Fly" assemblage journal workshop giveaway, not realizing that little ms. Reagan had team practice until 8:30 . So, we will pull the name out of the hat as soon as we get back, and announce winner at about 9:30 pm Eastern.
You can still sign up for the Giveaway until that time :))
Instead of making another post today,
I will add the announcement of the winner of the giveaway on THIS post at 930 pm :)
Blessings, and have a wonderful week!
