Sometimes, during the course of a day, you spot something so pretty, you just have to share with friends. I don't know if anyone will ever read my blog, but I can certainly add tidbits every now and then (especially since I am in the middle of my life story right now and trying hard to get it up to date). One thing I do like is looking at Facebook and seeing all the creative people and their designs, as well as antiquers who display at antique shows and brocantes. Goodness knows, I sure miss traveling overseas but travel these days is a very scary thing and I prefer to remain closer to home. Anyway, here's a few goodies I just have to share. There is beauty in old age - and these items just prove it.
If you're wondering, the background is old ANTIQUE VICTORIAN paper lace. The graphic is an old Victorian die cut. The decoration, which is hard to determine is either ribbon embroidery or a painted embellishment.
These beauties would have been crafted with love and then framed so that they may remain in pristine condition their entire life.
I like to think of the above image as having been on a decorative box - gifted to a little girl. You know, they really knew about decorating the outside of a gift as well as the inside!
Till my next writing.....
