54th Metamorphosis Monday and a Rosey Candelabra

I'm joining Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphorsis Monday!


Bought a pair of these candelabras a fews years back...they were missing something on them....and I could never remove the glue. This weekend I got them out and ,made roses out of polymer clay. I think they turned out pretty nice!

Have a Creative Day!

Just Playing!

Had a frame and a large plate (picked the plate up for $3). Framed the plate! Saw a lonely teacup...grabbed it and tied it to the frame with pretty ribbon! (Ned to cut the ribbon a bit)I am really enjoying it. It's in my dining room! Simple!


Have a Creative Day!

Metamorphosis Monday and a Settee


I found this cutie at a thrift shop. It was rusty and broken in some areas. Sorry, forgot to take before pics!

I cleaned and welded the rusty and broken areas, primed it, then gave it a nice shiny coat of red rustoleum paint! Isn't it just too cute? When time permits, I will make cushions for it for the seat and back. I think I have some vintage tablecloths that might work! Stay tuned!
I'm linking up to Susan of Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphosis Monday Let's al go take a tour and see what the other ladies have been up to!

Have a Creative Day!

Updated Valentine Tree and a Gift From Blogger!





I really didn't care for the red tree afterall, so I decorated my Radko tree instead. I like it better!! It shows off the ornaments much better! I need to get more checked silk fabric to make a skirt for my tree.
See the black and white candle in the last photo? It was sent to me by Sarah of Hyacinths for The Soul! What a great surprise to find this in my mailbox today! So sweet...I love it!
If you haven't been to her blog, you MUST run....don't walk over and see all the fabulous photos and her writings about her home and life. It is always full of life!

I also changed my blog...borrowed a background until I have time to create my own...I did change my header image a bit...I am liking it better with a little pizazz!! Don't you?
I'll be adding a Giveaway in the next week, so keep an eye out for it. It will be something to do with Valentine's Day!!
Have a Creative Day!
Warm Hugs....Linda
ps...I apologize for the photos...they were taken with my phone
