Cool French Chic Votives

Aren't these the coolest candle holders? I found these lovelies quite a few years ago and had planned on foofing them up to sell. Well, each spring I hit the attic to see what treasures await me for a "makeover". They have been screaming out my name for three years now, so I thought this would be a perfect time to give them a once-over of vintage lace, seam binding and an old rusty key.

I think they came out really cute. They hold a votive or tealight candle. If you would like one of your very own, just pop over to "Treasured Heirlooms" boutique and click on "Mercury Glass and Candles" and voila, there they are, ready and waiting for you.

Enjoy!

If It's Pink, then It Must Be Saturday...

Welcome to Pink Saturday.

Although it's very chilly outside and the wind is blowing, I've decided it's time for Spring here at the Pink Fairy Cottage. I pulled out the glue gun, glittery, ribbon, pearls, birdies, ballerinas and everything else I could find and started foofing up lots of goodies for the shops.

 Introducing my Pink Fairy Rose Jar. Feminine, Pink, Frilly, Glittery and perfect for your Romantic Home Decor.

Marie Antoinette Crown

Last month when I was blogging all over the universe inviting ladies to participate in my Valentine swap, I read so many new blogs and made tons of new friends.

One of the most enchanting ladies I met was Jacqueline, from Once Upon a Fairyland blog. She dubbed me a "Queen in Training" since this was my first visit to her blog. Jacqueline mailed me a "Queen in Training" gift tag and an adorable vintage Valentine tucked inside a lovely "Believe" Mary Engelbreit card.

I decided since I am now Officially a Queen in Training, I need my own Crown. I've been itching to create something spectacular, glittery and over-the-top to celebrate my love of Marie Antoinette. This is what I created this week. I absolutely love every inch of this glittery crown.

I thought I would share it with you, because we KNOW that all girls are "Princesses", but all ladies are "Queens"! At least in my Castle.

Cathy's "AMOUR" Valentine Swap

This has been the most wonderful experience. Since this was my first time hosting a swap, it gave me great respect for all the ladies who host unique and fun swaps throughout the year. Trust me, it takes alot of time and a great deal of organizational skills to pull it off. I had to test my middle-aged brain to see if I still had it in me. All of you believed in me and for that I "thank you".

I hope you take a moment to visit all the stunning "Amour" Valentine boxes created by the most talented women on the web. Meeting so many new friends and sharing another awesome swap with friends I've known for years, has been an honor and a pleasure.

Grab a beverage, sit a spell and join us on our "Valentine Stroll" through their beautiful blogs and enjoy the stunning creations of the 66 ladies who participated in my
"Amour" swap.

Bunnies and Cupcakes

It's definitely a Bunny and Cupcake kind of day!

Last night while DH was intently watching the Super Bowl, very quietly I might add, I spent hours and hours getting lost in the blogging world.

I didn't realize that 5 hours had passed and I was still intently reading and enjoying photos of hundreds of blogs. The thing I enjoyed the most was the stunning pictures on everyone's blogs. People really take quite a bit of time out of their day to photograph and tell great stories on their blogs for us to read. I definitely am not taking this for granted any longer.

Although I am always amazed at the unbelievable amount of talented artists out there, I realized that creativity is so boundless and our imaginations are so unique and individual. Each and every one of us has a piece of our soul in everything we create and in all the wonderful stories and photographs explaining the stories. I wanted to thank you all for such a wonderful evening spent reading all of your blogs. (I'm so NOT a football fan).

I hope you enjoy my little Bunnies and Cupcakes Kind of Day today. I will be listing these lovelies on Treasured Heirlooms. If you see something you like, just shoot me a quick email and I will post it for you with the price ASAP.
