Taking a break...

I am taking a break for a few days to spend time with my family and friends. Looking forward to relaxing and antiquing.

Have a great week!
Hugs, Sharon

As promised...

As promised, here are some photos of my jewelry buy.

The Box

The Jewels

One bag of many...some earrings

Signed and unsigned Weiss

Sorry about the glare in some of my photos. I think I will have to start hinting for a camera that takes better close ups. Any suggestions?

I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe weekend!

Hugs, Sharon

I took a break this evening from reading blogs...

and played with Photoshop.

I will be posting next week a photo of my August blog give away!

So please check back next week.

A special thank you for all of you that have visited my blog and left kind words on my blog.

Hugs, Sharon

We were given a collage sheet for July design project...2 projects for July. First photo, I created a die cut of an image for this project. I embellished with paper flowers, vintage buttons, vintage key, and vintage lace & seam ribbon.

Second project, I used a vintage bottle, black rub-ons, and embellished with vintage laces, vintage chandelier crystals, and a vintage button.

This is the second in a series for our master bedroom redesign. I used a vintage platter, vintage image, vintage dollie, vintage laces, and vintage vintage buttons & ear rings.

Sorry for the bad photos for this post...problems with lighting.

Weekend trip to Fairhope, AL

This weekend Don and I went to visit my friend, Mary, in Fairhope at her summer home. What a wonderful town! It was great seeing Mary...she hasn't changed in 7 years since I last saw her! BTW, she loves hats and antiquing as much as I love do!

Mary

Wonderful antique shops!

I will post my finds later in the week. Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe week!

Hugs, Sharon

Congratulations!

I used a random counter for the drawing. I tried to copy and paste the page but it did not work.

Thank you to all of you ladies for your wonderful comments and visiting my blog.

I will be posting a photo of August give away next week with more details.

Hugs, Sharon

I hope everyone is having a great weekend.

This morning I created this collage using everything vintage...silver tray, cabinet card, vintage dollies and laces, vintage pearl necklace, and vintage earrings. For some reason, I just realized that my recent collages include vintage ivory, tan, and/or brown elements. I have no idea as to why I am drawn to these colors for creating. My favorite colors are pinks and blues.

I will probably post this in my Etsy store later this week.

I have again changed my blog banner! I just love playing with Photoshop so this is a way to show my digital work.

Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe day!

Hugs, Sharon

Merry 4th of July!

Wishing everyone a wonderful and safe holiday!
