Projects for my scrap space.

I got this at a local thrift store. Just added a few embellishments and some bling.
I first glued on a lace doily from my stash then took apart the big pink flower I got from the dollar tree and redid it my way. Added a few wedding appliques and more flowers some I made and some from the store. I also made the stick pin. The bling is from Prima


I brought this in from my garden. It was white and a bit dirty from the weather. Just painted it white and then light pink and a darker shade of pink for the main rose. I mixed a metallic green with a little white to soften the green. I have it hanging in my craft room now.


I tried to make my own trims. I still need to work on them more.



The top bottom one is one my sister gave me that was on a flower spray. The bottom one is one I got in a small bag of pearls from my local thrift store. Studied it and made my own. I tried to make the top bottom one which is the pink one. Not so easy. I believe it Karla001 on etsy that you can buy these from. And in different colors. The ones that look like a kite. I came up with. I got the idea for these from making beaded key chains for my kids when they were little.


here are a few close ups.

Thanks so much for looking. I will be posting some recent photos of my craft room make over soon. So please stop by and check it out.
