*Pink Creations*

Today for Pink Saturday, I thought I would share some of my favorite pink creations.  Some were gifts, some were items in my shop, and some were ones that I kept for myself.  So, get a cup of coffee, sit back, and enjoy some of my PINK CREATIONS.

I thought I'd start off with some Elegant Eggs that I created.

I had such fun creating this one.  Lots of vintage flowers, ribbons, and lace make this Elegant Egg a special one.  And it was for a special person...one of my swap pals!

This EEgg has wonderful layers of vintage lace, millinery, and rose trinket.  This one...I kept.

Here's one of my Easter dioramas.  This is home to a little chick, and is embellished with vintage lace, ribbon, millinery, and a vintage jewelry piece sitting upon an egg cup.  {I kept this one for myself.}

This little diorama was for a special friend.  In this little eggy, you'll spot a cute little bunny.  It's topped off with lovely pink ribbon, vintage millinery leaves, and a vintage jewelry piece.

I adore this precious baby box!  It is covered in vintage lace and ribbon.  The front is adorned with precious pink roses and millinery leaves.  It is topped off with a dressed up little stork that's carrying a sweet bundled.  This one is for my shop.

This pink party hat was created with lots of love for a most special little girl.  Who you ask?

Miss Maggie Bleu, of course.  It was for her 3rd birthday.

I LOVE this magical Cinderella box!  I created it for someone for a shop.  Cinderella is ready to enter her carriage that is pulled by two white horses.  This vintage lace is some that I found inside a vintage sewing basket that I purchased.  It's some of my favorite!  The wonderful white glitter gives it such a magical touch!

I've shared this before.  It is a crown that I made for our literacy leader at school.  It was for a Reading conference dinner in Knoxville.  I presented it to her that night, to wear when they introduced all of the literacy leaders.

This "Mother" tussie mussie is a creation that was in my shop as well.  I love the vintage pearly "Mother" pin!

Another little cutie created with lots of vintage goodies for a swap.

The last one that I am sharing today is my sugary sweet pink house.  It hasn't been too long since I shared this one.  My best friend, Lisa, and I each bought a house, had a craft day, and created our sweet little pink homes.  We had such fun working on these together!

Well, I hope you have enjoyed my little creations.  A craft day is always a fun day!

Now, go by and pay Beverly a visit.  Then check out the list of pinky participants!  You'll be glad you did!

Project Friday

I love to decoupage!  This was always a favorite art project when I was a child.  Since it is officially spring, and Easter is on its way, I will be showing how to make decoupage Easter eggs...elegant style!

First, you need your "blank" canvas.....a  paper mache' egg or egg box.  After you have decided what colors and design you wish to make, gather all of your supplies.  (There is special glue out there for decoupage, but white glue works well too.  You can even water down your white glue a bit.)

Apply glue with your brush to the egg, and start putting on your paper.  (Once again, there is a lot to choose from when it comes to decoupage paper, but tissue paper, lightweight paper, and doilies work too!)  I am using paper lace and doilies.  I am using glitter glue as well.  Use your brush and fingers to gently push the paper over the egg, getting out any bubbles that might occur.  Let this dry before you move on to the next step.  If you decided on the egg box, you will decorate each part, making sure it will close when complete.  

Begin to decorate your egg.  I have decided to make this egg to where it will be one piece.  Since my egg was in two pieces, I just glued it shut.  I have decoupaged some small flowers on the egg.

Embellish as you wish and ENJOY!

Actually, these three Elegant Eggs can be 

found here in my shop.

Be sure to go by and visit Rosemarie who is the hostess for Project Fridays.  She has a great project to share with you today, as do many other talented bloggers.

Have a great decoupage day!

Happy First Day of Spring!

I love this season...flowers blooming...sweet little eggs in nests...warm, sunny days...gentle cool breezes...aahhh Spring!
