WINTER BOTTLES FOR WHITE WEDNESDAY

I HAVE HAD A BOX OF VINTAGE, PAPER FLOWER PETALS THAT WERE NEVER FINISHED. I LOVE THE AGED, TISSUE LIKE LOOK OF THE OLD FLOWER PAPERS, BUT NEVER REALLY USED ANY OF THEM. WHEN I DECIDED TO MAKE SOME WINTRY TYPE BOTTLES, I THOUGHT THAT PERHAPS I WOULD TRY PUTTING SOME OF THE FLOWERS TOGETHER AND USE THEM TO TOP OFF THE GLITTERY BOTTLES. I LIKE THE WAY THEY TURNED OUT, AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE PUT AWAY WITH THE CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS.

Well Judy like everything you do, these are just beautiful. Yes, these should never be put away!!!
The details on them are wonderful.
I was delighted to read your message this morning. I'll bet your sweater wreaths were amazing! I now have all these little pieces of sweaters left over from this project last year and hope to make some tiny stockings with them this year.
Is everything busy at your shop? I hope it is a good season for you.
Everyone just loves my beautiful cuff!!! And I will have to send you a photo of where I hung the beautiful ornament.
Lots of hugs for you!
June

Hi Judy! I just love your bottles!! Such wonderful details you've used to embellish them...so pretty!!!

I hope to make it to Kane on Saturday, at least for a little while...I'll be sure and stop by your booth if I do!

Oh, and yes, I do sell the Jeanne d' Arc magazines on my website.


Hope the flea goes great for you!

Judy, the bottles look lovely! I haven't gotten mine done for the holidays, but now you have given me an idea that makes it okay to put off that project until New Years! (Why do I always have more ideas than time??)
Sorry so late with wishes for a super White Wednesday, so let's just make is a Fabulous Thursday!
Hugs -
Betty :)
