...hello dear readers!
WOW!!
It has been a lickety split fast week!!
~ and yes,
I'm still cleaning and weeding out my studio.
but,
I did manage to give my french flower market basket a little make over:)
Seems as though everything I touch these days,
is being converted into creamy white shades of loveliness...
~ a fabulous spray of pretty white roses for the basket
and then a sumptuous bow adorns the front!
bow is made out of soft vintage netting
(NOT that itchy scratchy stuff they have on the market today I tell ya'!)
then a silk tassel, and a picot edged satin bow
with a vintage pearl and rhinestone earring in the center!
sheeze,
seems as though I've been using those vintage earrings alot lately
...lampshades, flowers, bakets and bows!!
I had better be on the hunt for more ~ LOL!!
I love how this basket has a handle, it's like an elegant walking stick,
wouldn't you agree?
not that you probably wish to see my studio table...
but this is what it looks like at the moment!
there are four sides to a table ~ no?!
well,
let me tell you,
for each side of this table,
there are also four different creative endeavors going on!!
I know, I know,
no rest for the wicked...
or is it weary??
I can never remember!
~ and I certainly TRY not to be wicked ~ LOL!!
I just know my brain never stops,
even long after my hands and eyes do!!
yes, that is my tasty imbibement sitting there
with colored lip gloss all over the rim
(remember : pretty is, as pretty does!!)
I usually drink seltzer water with a lemon circle
but today,
I felt like having an "Arnold Palmer"
(a mix of lemonade and ice tea)
hhhmmmm...
it also appears that I've been having a few interesting fizzy lifty drinks this week!!
pretties in the making!
I've also got my sights set on this next:
a wicker chaise re-slipcover make over...
and with sooooooo many inspiring places to visit in blog land
I'm sure I'll come up with nothing short of ALOT of lovely ideas!!

This is gorgeous Rosemary! Such a pretty basket! Your studio is gorgeous too! If I had one that looked like that I would LIVE in there! lol
ReplyDeleteBlessings~
your posts are always so dreamy. every photograph could be in magazine. truly..they look amazing..like you just want to climb in and be a "part of it." Your work table is the epitome of femininity...no surprise there! Merci for the inspiration mon amie...double sigh
ReplyDeleteAlways a place of beauty here, Rosemary. I should have known you were a fizzy drink person, so am I. I am addicted to Pellegrino and Ferrarelle water and ran out yesterday! I had to take a walk to pick up a couple bottles to have them on hand today. A lover of lemon in too! Drink a cup of hot water & lemon every morning, have you tried? It's fab.
ReplyDeleteGood luck w/all your projects. I believe things go better when there are lots of things being worked on at one time!

That is the prettiest craft table I've ever seen! Love your re-make of the flower basket - it is so lovely.

Beautiful studio. Love your walking stick.
ReplyDeleteHi Rosemary~ What a beautiful walking stick and your studio is filled with gorgeousness! I am loving the ruffles on your table and your sweet little stool-so pretty!! Thanks for sharing these inspirations at Feathered Nest Friday! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Rosemary, your french basket is sweet, I haven't seen all sides of my working tables for months now! So I can definately relate, I love the way you have your table drapped, the cold and snow has given me a great excuse to stay inside and create also.

This looks so lovely. I look forward to you stopping by at My Dream Canvas:-)
ReplyDeleteI love your French flower basket. I have had in my inspiration file for a long time to make one of those. I have my Grandfathers old handmade by him walking sticks and my Grandmothers baskets. I want to make one from their items as a tribute to them. You have just gotten me inspired to make that my winter project. Thanks for sharing. I have become a new follower. I love your studio. What a lovely place to be inspired. ~~Sherry~~
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous of your gorgeous studio Rosemary!! Since I moved, I now have to use to dining table. Oh well, it works just as well I guess. But I miss having my own space!
ReplyDeleteI love your walking stick, you did a beautiful job!
Have a great Sunday.
sincerely,
Melinda
