My Love for Creamy White Laces....a short story



Every time I turn around, I see all my creamy white laces in a basket begging to be upcycled into a pocket or a pouch or added to a collage. I was very busy this past weekend, as I had a creating "to do" list a mile long.

I finally feel I'm back to my normal sleep pattern. No more waking up at 2:00 or 3:00 am and thinking why am I so awake? Hey, I don't smell coffee brewing downstairs.....it's maddening. Ah, the price of traveling. So worth it, though.

I even had time to create some jewelry charm pieces, great for your mixed media art projects or simply to wear. I've even wrapped some around candles and lampshades.

I was so lucky and found petite wooden frame boxes on Etsy.
I painted them shabby white and I love creating petite shrines with them.


I believe the laces and I are happy now.

I don't even feel like creating things myself when I come here and lay my eyes on what you've made! It is so beautiful I just have such an urge to run to your Etsy shop and buy it all up! But then I remember I'm an artist, and my own creative juices begin to flow and I talk myself into playing with my own stash of laces here in my studio!

You infuse me with so much creative passion!
That's not meant to sound weird in any way, btw!

It's really no surprise to me that everything is Sold, Sold, Sold, Sold! lol

Have a great day. I'm off to produce some coffee smells in the kitchen!

Ciao Bella!

Rhonda,
Beautiful things, beautiful dreams, beautiful blog.
I received the religious pouch with Mary on it and the mini prayer cards. LOVE them. I'm off to your shop right now to purchase something more.
I wish you cream colored dreams and restful sleep.
