...once upon a time
(bloom stained art tags)
there was a girl, who liked to play with pretty supplies...
very whimsical things
~ such as old rusty keys
and luscious hand dyed silk ribbons...
(sweet dreams - victorian grunge silk necklace)
and other shiny objects that just so happened to catch her eye...
(Elegant Whimsy - a vintage silverware chandelier windchime)
now...being a gypsy fairy girl at heart
she would always see things just a little different
...a little odd
odd (od), adj.
differing in nature from what is ordinary, usual, or expected...
she took delight in various materials
manipulating them to please her unique heart
(wee willy winkie - vintage fairytale paper book art)
and with the wave of her magic wand
always tried to present them as a gift ~
for
in her mind's eye,
they were...
gifts from her hands,
and
a gift from her heart!
her designs were born out of a desire for simple elegance in her everyday life
and in her eyes ~
even the most humblest of materials
could surely be made into something lovely...
(Lovely Candle Corset)
she was definately a seeker of the unusual
and was always
s-p-r-e-a-d-i-n-g
her wings outside of ordinary boundries
(Butterfly Goddess Romance Choker)
...always reaching for that little somethin` somethin` extra
to amaze and delight
(swan lake - delightful shortbread cookies)
the complete visual was important to her...
as her muse was always beckoning her
to display and package all of her pretties
with as much creativeness
as she could possibly imagine...
(rose - a paper doll muse)
as she continues on this creative quest ~
and making such pretties as these
she is always on the lookout for inspiration
(doorway to the theatre of dreams)
as it can be found in the most unlikely,
off-the-beaten path places...
and her wish for you
dear one,
is that you may also find YOUR bliss
...whatever
and
wherever that may be
(make a wish - a most whimsical horse shoe)
because in doing so ~
(A French Country Farmhouse - paper doll)
you are on your way to writing your very own fairytale!!
~ la fin ~
and for other fanciful tales
join in on the party here at
from the girl behind the curtain ~
~ bonus clip ~
a sumptuous tray full of whimsical rose brooches...
(from the tea stained follies collection)
