Sparkle, Bloom & Bow

It is just not very cheery today. Rain, rain, rain! The local weather girl says it's "light showers" - Ha! Everything is soaked & it hasn't let up since I awoke this morning.

Handbag Style

There was a very brief moment in my life when I decided I was going to make purses. My mom had just bought me a sewing machine, so that was all I needed! I bought lots of fabric, trims, threads, handles & whatever else caught my fancy. I was going to be this fabulous handbag designer, making lots of money by selling them on ebay.

Ha ha ha! I made a few bags AND I even sold a couple. They weren't horrible, but they were not fantastic. Of course, I struggled & struggled to learn, but my impatience got the better of me. I put a stop to that fantasty. It was fun for a time, but it just didn't catch my interest.

Thank You Very Much

The main feature of this creation is the vibrant blue glitter flourish. It started out as plain, unaltered chipboard. I painted, glittered & sealed it before adding hemp twine & two flower buttons layered atop each other.
