Another Pink and Silver Country Bouquet

Looks like I may have found a little niche in the market for me. Right now I have three bouquet orders pending, two of which are for 2013! I just completed this bouquet, for someone who had a great story! I threw in a little something extra for her to!

There are several things on this bouquet that are special to her. First of all there is a picture of her mother and brother in a framed brooch. Her mothers locket is also creatively tucked away in the beauty! Her husband has also bought her some "Tiffany's" and the "return to Tiffany's" locket is now in there. Finally the big beautiful pink flower which is the centerpiece was given to her by her best friend!

I really didn't want to package this one up and send it out.... seems like a shame to shut it in a box... ok ok I know it is going to look AMAZING in the hands of its beautiful bride!



Mothers Day!

Well Happy Mothers Day (I know I am early). 

I just wanted to share a sneak peak of my new hutch with you, it is my mothers day present. 

Check out how great my Biscayne china looks up there!

I have been screamed at not to paint it lol! 

Another one from the original owners house, i love her tiered milk glass! 

And a score, I paid $200 for this beauty! Its a tell city hutch from 1959! 

Tea Towel Pillows

I have a pillow obsession, in a sense if I see a pillow sitting at a yard sale or thrift store and pay like .25 cents for it I feel like I have score tremendously! It could be the ugliest pillow in the world, but I buy them simply for their fluff and stuffing!

So I was at Hobby Lobby the other day just wondering around the store aimlessly when I came to their "spring" section. They had tea towels that resembled grain sacks, so I picked up two packs for about $14 for both sets. 

So I took the sets and sewed the two with the stripes together, then I used the two blue towels and sewed them to the back of the "Dine Bone Appetit Enjoy" towels, and came up with a much better version of couch pillows! 

The family has already said how much better these are for taking a quick nap on our couch! 

What do you think?
