MY LITTLE CHICK-A-DEE

Spring has officially arrived, at least it has here at my home. What is better than the pastel colors of flowers, the rich greeness of the grass and a pretty, glittered birdhouse? A vintage Lefton chick maybe? I think so!

I've decided this will be my last Easter creation of the season. I couldn't resist making one more item with those adorable Vintage Lefton Chicks. A hydrangea basket is the new home to "My Little Chick-a-dee" along with glittery chicky postcards, eggs, grass, pearls, vintage lace, seam binding, silk flowers and a pastel birdhouse. A sweet combination and a perfect centerpiece to leave out all year long.

LITTLE MISS in her SPRING BONNET

What can I say except spring can't come fast enough. Since the snow keeps falling here in New England the only way to keep myself warm and toasty is to create spring treasures.

I found this vintage Little Miss vase quite some time ago and she has been patiently waiting a her transformation into something wonderful.

Well it finally came to me. How adorable would she be with a lovely Spring bonnet atop her head. So here she is in all her spring glory. I hope you love her as much as I do. A perfect year-round treasure. She is the perfect present for a special loved one, or something you might want to give to yourself. 6"t

Her bonnet was created with Forget-me-Nots, pink Roses, a little Chenille chick, seam binding, pearls, a Robin's egg and a lovely white dove. Her brim is sparkly magenta glitter.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. I know I did. I few too much chocolate and a couple too many cinnamon rolls so I think I'd best get out there and walk.

I wanted to share my newest Valentine Wreath with you in case you wanted to shop early.

I used 1800s vintage Valentine ephemera with some newer Valentines, a vintage Lefton Valentine girl, lots of roses, hearts, glitter and three gorgeous vintage rhinestone heart brooches, plus other glittery jewels.
I hope you like it.

I'M BACK IN THE MOOD

I know it's very hot and a bit early to start thinking of the snowy, cold winter-time, but I'm in the holiday spirit. My Glitz and Glam station is a wonderful place to create on a hot summers day. It cool and comfortable. So I thought I would start making a few new Christmas treasures for you.

"Mary Christmas" is the first wreath in my new line of smaller, more affordable, one-of-a-kind, themed wreaths. I just love the way this came out. It is about half the size of my large wreaths (22-24"dia), but has just as much charm and treasures. At approximately 12" diameter, "Mary Christmas" is perfect to place on a photo stand mixed in and amongst your other holiday treasures, or hung on a wall during the holiday season.

She will arrive safe and sound at your home covered with a light dusting of vintage mica snow and a touch of glitter. I know you will just love her. If you would like to order one similar, please email me directly and I will do my very best to make one up with a lovely "Lefton" holiday figurine.

Keep cool and enjoy the holiday treasures I have posted for your pleasure.
