...creatively "lost at sea"


hello my dears!
i hope you are enjoying the last of these glorious summer days

there is already a bit of cool breeze in the late afternoons
my how time goes quickly!

i have been creatively "lost at sea" in my studio lately ~
(that's a good thing!)
next week is my birthday,
and
i shall return to the beautiful sea!!


(you know how much i love that!!)

so my thoughts have been of those ruffled waves
and the fizzy salty air...

sea inspired,
i've dipped some gorgeous new hues of silk ribbons
waiting to be sea washed

and

have been making these...

~ sea silk ear adornments ~

as this is also my white wednesday post,
here are a few white pretties which surround me
that through my eyes,
 are in the jeanne d'arc living style ...



an enchanted birds nest vignette...
  

glass hurricane candle...


love, Love, LOVE white feathers!!
they are so ethereal to me


an embellished french spritzer bottle...
  

an eyelet lace wire heart...
  

a graceful ceramic statue... 


and wire wings i've been designing.

i just never know where my muse will lead me...
there are so many wonderful things to discover in blog land!

  10. Your lacy ship deserves the be published my friend, I will make one of them one of these days. I use to make them in the late 80's yearly 90's when country was still the thing, then I moved on to vintage looking birdhouses, you so inspire that sailboat of lace, In fact my aunt loves your site and she does not blog, she has some wood sail boats that she wants to give your treatment to them :)

    Keep inspiring us Birthday Girl!!
    It so what you do best :)
