Distracting Projects


Projects:

I admit it.  I'm easily distracted. In my defence - this is a hobby and I am supposed to be having fun!

To try and add character to this familiar plastic hour-glass dress form I cut tissue strips from the French language portion of an old pattern. I then decoupaged the tissue to the form and trimmed it with matching lace.





I've been considering planters for the courtyard. Over time I have picked up a few varieties of napkin holders from the Thrift Store.  These are a bargain at about .50 cents a box.  I like the shapes and would like to find some use for them.  The one in the foreground is my favourite.


I am enjoying rusting items so applied a little moss to the top of this teapot before I treated it.




Making roses..... still developing the best system for me.





Not quite right yet but I like the colour!

Where are your little projects taking you?
