I just love them because I have never seen any this pretty~ And this sweet old doll dress, I plan on doing more with this but for now I tucked a bunch of old velvet millinery to it~
And these really pretty old sequins, theres just something about the old ones, there just so pretty!
And in the mail I recieved this darling journal book from Kristen's
giveaway ~ I just love it and it really does inspire me ~
Pretty pale colors ~
And I have been searching the thrift shops for this perfect lampshade with out a covering on it,just the bare wires , and I finally found one. I wanted to use some pretty tulle ruffle trim from an old prom dress that I got from my friend Sarah to cover the lampshade with. And here is the end result. I think it turned out pretty !With a floppy old velvet millinery flower that is so lovely ~But wait I didn't have this all glued down so I tried it another way ~ Can you please tell me if you like 1 or 2 better.
1.
2. This pink one just has tulle around the top of the shade .
And a picture of the shade before ~this I found at the thrift shop !
Remember to tell me if you like lamshade 1. or lampshade 2.!Thanks, Hope you have a lovely day!~

What lovely, delicate finds you found! Love the millinery flowers and the pale softness of what you created on that wire lampshade. :)
I love the bright colors in your seam binding! Those aren't often found so you did a great job at the yard sales!

Wow...so many beautiful treasures! Love the seam binding.
Your lamp shade is beautiful both ways...but #2 is really stunning! I like it because you can still see the pretty line of the frame.

I come here for the roses and all the beauty.
I want it all
I love them BOTH! If I must choose, I'll choose #2 because I adore the pink rose, (is it vintage, or does it just look old)?
Both beautiful!
