Altered things I made

This is a clip board I altered. I am getting ready for the Witches of  Bethel  Antique & Artisan Sale, Oct. 3rd. in Bethel, Pa. It is a great show.

I also did two boxes with seashells on the top. This is the first one I did.

And this is the second one I did.

I had this old book and did a old shoe, a bear, a tree and some other embellishments on it.

I made these snowmen and snow women. After I decorated them I covered them in mica.

This is a close up of the one pair.

This is a Halloween cloche I did. I think it turned out well.

This book is like the Christmas book, but it is a Halloween spooky book

More garden pictures of 2015

I got this chair from the trash. It was ugly brown. I painted it white and distressed it. It is ni my flower garden, with flowers on the seat and a birdhouse. In front of it is one of my watering cans.

This is a vignette beside my shed.

Here are the baby robins. Three hatched Memorial Day and one hatched  the next day.

My baby chickadee's left on Memorial Day. She had three babies. They are so precious.

This is the second one to leave and it sit in the garden for a little.

My gardens of 2015

Things I have been making

This is a bracelet I did.

I always wanted to make a shadow box like this. I added scrapbook paper to the back and printed a picture from the computer and added. I also stained the box, walnut. Added that beautiful lace and the antique doll that I got at an auction. The baby shoe filled with a tiny teddy bear and a lace doily, pearls and a clock face. 

This is the top of the box.

This is a spool I did, I added feathers to the hat and embellished it with lace and flowers.

This is a close up of the bottom.

I had these boxes that someone gave me, they were very country. So I papered them with wallpaper I had left over from my bedroom. Added lace and lace doily's and buttons and a flower.

This is more of the boxes. I had six of them.

And some more. They are very victorian.

Altered things I made

These are the latest baby shoes I altered. I added lace and pearls and a picture in each one that I printed  off the computer. My boss at work, got me these shoes at a thrift store. They aren't what I wanted, but I did them.

 

I bought this handbag at a thrift shop. It was all white, and I started adding doily's to it, and also different kind of laces, pearls and rhinestones and some white roses. This is the one side of it. The next picture is of the other side.

The other side.

Altered baby shoes

I got these baby shoes at a yard sale, and decided to alter them. I added lace vintage jewelry and a bottle brush tree, which I bleached and added snow and mica flakes. I do like how they turned out.

This is them from a different view (back).

Decorating with Santas

This is a scene in the bathroom.

Another Santa in the bathroom. He is one of my favorites.

This is like a shadow box shelf. It has different scenes in each. And of course the top shelf if all Elvis.

The birdhouse even gets decorated.

This is a vintage cabinet, which I decorate with Santas. I open the doors on it so you can see the things better. These pictures are now in my front room.

Santa's on a wooden tray with greens. The Santa in the middle is a candy container. The pink tree I bleached to that color, not sure how, but I like how it turned out.

This is the only red Santa I have. I like how he has the toys.

Another Santa with a sled and trees.

A Santa with a vintage tree and some greens.

This Santa was on my tree when I was a little girl. I was lucky enough to get it. And I also have the box for it.

This half window is above the big window in the front room. This year I put one Santa and a reindeer with some greens and lights in it, and it is very pretty.
