Playing with Paper

Last week I spent a lovely afternoon with Cindy of Oakview Cottage. Cindy and her hubby have  a lovely home near the Red River. She gave me a cute star made from sheet music, and that got me started on a few little paper projects. I had an old music book  so I mod-podged a few candles, and then used my hounds tooth wrapping paper to cover the back of a hutch. Nice little changes, and fun to do….

I love Cindy's star and I love the projects you completed too. Such talented ladies. I love your pretties displayed in your hutch.

Hi Millie, I used to follow your blog but kind of lost track of you once I started my own blog. I just looked through your recent posts and they are lovely. I really like your hutch all decorated with the new paper and the white dishes! I am friends with Cindy so found you again :-)
Merry Christmas!
Blessings,
Pamela

Your candles look beautiful! And I love them with the star that I made, the star looks at home there. Your hutch is gorgeous, what a lovely idea, to mod-podge the back of it in paper. Your dishes and vignettes are always SO pretty!
And thanks for the mention, I mentioned you today on mine!:)
Hugs, Cindy

Victoria…and Me

Image
To see larger photos, click to enlarge.. The May-June 2009 Victoria magazine is one of my favorites, featuring blue and white... one of the open pages with an article on linens...it just happens that I have one of the patterns... There is also a feature on blue and white Wedgewood ... I have photographed some of my pieces alongside the article... ....here is my interpretation of blue and white... As a nod to the current issue of Victoria, which features some tea tables in green, I have  set out my own little tea table, with some scones... ...or perhaps you'd like to help yourself to a chocolate-cherry morsel? On this spring day, I am joining in with : Celebrate Spring http://blissfulrhythm.blogspot.com/ Mary's Mosaic Monday, on whose blog you will see some lovely snowdrops: http://dearlittleredhouse.blogspot.com/2011/03/mosaic-monday-snowdrops.html Also,   Sandi is having a special tea party today, so be sure to go over there and enjoy her lovely blog
