Rosette Party today!

I hope you wonderful rosette makers out there
will bear with me today. I decided last night...at the
last minute that I wanted to join the
French Cupboard rosette party.
Definitely not much time to prepare so be warned
that these are not the most beautiful photos you will
ever see , but they are definitely rosettes.

I made this rosette pin a few days ago by tearing off a
strip of old white fabric that had the crochet trim still
attached. I love how it turned out. One of my
favorites right now.

I made these on the spur of the moment last night. I took two silk roses apart and stamped, stamped,
stamped Parisian images on the petals. That is as far as I have gotten...more work to be done
on these.

I made most of these rosettes at one time or another
except the colored ones. I am sure you know who
made them. Yes it was Erica of Meadowstreet! Love her work!!

{ I posted this wristlet several days ago,
but am reposting it for this rosette party}

I cut the shabby trim off the top of a skirt
and made this ivory rosette wristlet.
I wanted it to be simple so all I did was add a small
muslin rosette that I had made and some tiny
vintage lace.

These white gauze rosettes are in my Etsy
store right now. I love working with this
dreamy thin fabric. No two are ever alike.

These are some of the first rosettes I ever made.
I hooked three of them together and added
some ribbon tails and a button like Erica did.

I know there are gorgeous rosettes out there
in blogland. You can see many more by
attending the rosette party today through
the weekend.

Oops White Wednesday

Kathleen at Faded Charm is hosting yet another
WW today for us bloggers. I just love to see all the
whites that everyone comes up with each week.

What do you think of my little makeover project?

The original photo of this sweet lady even has a white
rose in her hair so I had to add one of my
tattered roses as well.

It started out as this clock body and I transformed
it into what you see above.
The glass was missing when I found it , but
it did still have the old metal clock face so I kept
that to decorate with.

now comes the oops...

I was messing around with it to shabby it up before taking it up to my booth and guess what happened??

the knob on the top fell off!!

I had glued it on with E6000 glue and thought that would hold it , but apparantly not. Now I am trying to figure out what to use or just leave it off, but I do like it there. Any suggestions?

Happy White Wednesday!
