Merry Christmas!




Flocking Wreath

I tried something new this year......
Flocking.  
Very easy, inexpensive but, I must say.......  rather messy.
I turned an otherwise plain wreath into something special.  
Now it's fabulous!

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!
From my family to yours.
Happy Holidays!

Wallpaper Roses - A Rare Treasure




 Vintage Wallpaper Chest

I am a big collector and have many collections.
My style is romantic shabby chic.  I always gravitate towards roses and of course......  the color pink.
I love to go Junkin!  I live for the thrill of the hunt and can hardly wait till I discover my next "greatest" find.
This year was fruitful and I found many wonderful things.  
They are all my "favorite" but sometimes you find a rare treasure.
This old wallpaper chest is one of them.  It is absolutely gorgeous!  I love the huge cabbage roses and how the paper has yellowed over time.  Aged to perfection and.....  so imperfectly....  perfect.
I placed it in my crafts studio and use it to store my best and most cherished antique laces.
I would love to know what your favorite find this year was.

Have a wonderful week.
Blessings.
Elizabeth
