a random post of pretty floral blooms and organizing...



...hello again!
 
 
 
 
spring has
FINALLY
sprung here!
 
and everything is blooming:)
 
 
 
 
including the furniture
lol!!
 
nah, not really
but I did create this floral blanket for my mom's pretty cottage!
 
 
 
 
each bloom was meticulously hand cut out
 and sewn to a throw blanket and two heart shaped pillows...
 
 
 
 
I adore how it turned out
and LOVE how it looks in her bella pink room!
 
 
 
 
I also made her a paper rose sculpture
but this time ~
I added lights!
 
 
 
 
she hung this in her bedroom,
and in the evenings,
 
she can turn it on with a light remote!
 
so just before she dozes off to dream land
 she can simply "click" them off!
or not!
 
 
 
 
they are sooooo romantic,
 
wouldn't you agree?!?
 
 
 
 
~ sigh ~
 
 
 
 
now I think I shall have to make another sculpture that lights up...
 
 
 
 
 for me!!
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
switching gears here,
 
a little random I realize...
 
but I wanted to share this solution
 for organizing jewelry
 
I have l - o - n - g
 been trying to figure out a way to display my jewelry
 
I have never liked my pretties in a box
as I like to see them ~
in the daylight!
 
this is the solution that I came up with...
 
 
 
 
a jewelry station of sorts :)
 
 
 
 
I used a shadow box for my earrings...
perfect for displaying and keeping them in one location ~
paired together.
yah!!
no more lost earrings!
 
 
 
 
for my necklaces.
I wanted them all to hang nicely
as in,
NO tangled balls of mess!!
so I found these 2" binder rings
that can easily be snapped open and closed...
 
 

 
and suspended them on a café rod!
now I can easily see what lovely adornment I wish to wear!
 
 
 
 
and for my bracelets, I used a pretty covered cork board.
 
 
 
 
I tucked all of this behind my master bathroom door
on the wall.
so if you have a little space
and wish to display your pretty adornments
I hope this inspires you!

  3. You have been busy!! Such wonderful things, I don't know where to begin. Such a lovely blanket, I bet your mother was thrilled!=and the pillow! I like how you have hung up your jewelry. A friend of mine was looking for a way to hand her daughters earrings up, so if you don't mind,I will make something similar, not exactly like yours. Hope you are having a lovely Spring. Bit cold in north central Ohio!
