...a romantic easter egg

... lately
it seems as I've been in a pedestal kinda mode

and
NOTHING 
is safe!!

ahem...
* will you be stopping by for a visit soon?
(she asks, while ornery-ly gazing down at her feet)
I'm just sayin' ~
as I will seek out a special candlestick holder,
most especially for you!!
lol!!


playin' in the studio,
I covered this paper mache egg with paper blossoms
that I white washed to soften their color
and then pushed pearl head pins through the centers for added romance and whimsy
  

oohhhh
ppuuuuurrrrrty!!
I then nestled the egg upon some lace and silk rose petals
and glued them all atop another on...
can you guess what?
yep'
a glass candle stick holder!!
  

front of my pretty blossom egg...
  

on the top,
I added a silk rose...
  

I simply adore how it turned out
soft,
romantic,
  

and dreamy...

inspired??

    I absolutely L. O. V. E. your egg!!! I decorated a lot of eggs last year and thought that it would be enough for this year. That is until I saw your beautiful egg. If your don't mind I would like to try to make some of my own. I hope to get them done soon so I can post them for you to see how you have inspired me! Thanks.

    Dear Rosemary,
    This has to be the loveliest Easter Egg I've ever seen! Where do you get these wonderful ideas? Oh, and I love the "fake" apothecary jars from the last post! I would have never thought of such a thing, and I love it ~ I need to make some for my dried flower petals and herbs.
    Have a wonderful weekend!
    Hugs))

    Love it Rosemary! As I love all your creations! Hope you are enjoying a beautiful spring! I had my annual Easter Egg Hunt this morning. I filled 2500 plastic eggs, only to have to hide them in five inches of fresh snow!

    Have a beatufiul weekend!

    Rosemary, I am your newest follower although I'm a little confused because I thought I already was. I have known of you and your creative talents since I first begin blogging and have seen many of your posts, that's why I was under the impression I was already a follower. How I got to your blog I don't know. I guess none of that matters anymore, I'm just happy that I had sense enough, for some reason, to check if I was on your followers list. I love your blog and will visit often. BTW I love, love, love your beautiful egg and will have to get right on making one for myself. Wish me luck since I don't even come close to being as talented as you.

    Have a wonderful weekend,
    Irma

    That is so beautiful Rosemary! You have such an romantic touch to all that you do, the pearl pins are just one example.
    I love adding pedestals to my creations too, and have a stash that I go to now and then for inspiration! xoxo
