Some more Doll's I made

Here are the other two dolls that I made and was having trouble photographing. It has been raining here for days and finally we have summer, it is 90 degrees today, we really never had spring and now it's summer. These are done in pale colors. I had fun making these. I used vintage tea cups for the stands. I hope you have a wonderful week and thanks for visiting me today. Hugs, Terri

Some Dolls I Made

I have always loved dolls and I love, love, love those wonderful vintage charlotte dolls. I have been seeing them all over the internet and on Etsy. I thought I would try a few. My grandmother was an Avon Lady so I wanted to make some to honor her. I had so much fun making these. They are on vintage Avon powder cans. I put two on vintage tea cups and two on candy dishes. I made four of them, and when I was taking pictures of them, it started to rain and got dark, the light color ones did not come out too well, so I will share them another day. Here are two that I made. Thank you so much for visiting me today. I hope you are having a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri

Domino Book Swap

Our Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group just had a Domino Book Swap hosted by the lovely Holly of Paper Pieces of Me , she has a beautiful blog and also has a tutorial on making Domino Books. My partner was the lovely Debi of Life in my Studio , the first Domino Book is the one that I made for Debi and the second Domino Book is the one she made for me, which I truly love. She also made this beautiful box for me and inside was the Domino book wrapped in a vintage hanky, she also gave me a beautiful pair of pearl beaded gloves and a beautiful glove clip. I always love receiving mail for Debi, she wraps everything so beautifully. The third Domino Book is a precious tiny little one that Holly made for me, she made one for everyone that was in the swap. It was such a wonderful surprise. Look at the picture of Debi's and Holly's so that you can see how small Holly's Domino book is. It is just the sweetest. Thank you Holly for such a wonderful swap and for your tiny wonderful Domino book and thank you Debi for your wonderful Domino book. I will treasure these beautiful books. I hope you are having a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri

Tea Cup Tuesday

Hi Everyone, well today is Tea Cup Tuesday and I have to tell you that I think Spring has finally arrived here in Michigan. We are about a month behind. My violets are blooming right now, so today I am sharing with you two new tea cups that I just found at the Treasure Mart in Ann Arbor. When ever I see violet tea cups I get them, I don't know what it is about violets but I love them. I went outside today and picked a little bunch of them, you can see them in the pictures. This first cup is a Royal Albert, I love the violets and they even have a texture to them. I tried to photograph this but it would not show. I love the shape of the cup and the flowers are so beautiful. The second tea cup is a Queen Anne and I love the shape of the tea cup too. Thank you Terri and Martha for hosting Tea Cup Tuesday, please click on the tea cup on my side bar to visit the others joining Tea Cup Tuesday. I hope you are having a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri

Tea Cup Tuesday

Hello and thank you for visiting me today. The cup I want to share with you today, is a cup that I have had for a long time. I love the roses, who does not love roses and I love the color. It is not in perfect shape as the saucer has a shinny side and a dull side, but I love it anyway. I feel like someone else really loved it too and used it alot. The cup is made by Taylor and Kent of Longton, England. I want to thank Terri and Martha for hosting Tea Cup Tuesday. Please visit the other tea cups by clicking on the tea cup on my side bar. I want to wish everyone a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri
