Holiday French Market...

I had the most fun this weekend with Mom at the Holiday Market, I thought I would share with you some of the great items I picked up for my home. I love sparkly things and actually had to go back a second time to look at everything!

Everything is vintage sheet music and glittered with german glass like these cute little jingle bells. I am using them for one of my trees (pictures will come soon). I tied mine with hand dyed and scented seem binding ribbon in the color scheme I wanted this year.

 I am addicted to Bottle Brush Trees so... the collection grew again this year!

I got a new vintage pine tree this year, so of course I am in need of new ornaments! These are adorable glittered glass owl ornaments. They are a reproduction not vintage but you can't really tell. I did pick up some more glass owls for my tree and will share those next blog!

I think one of things I love most about this quant little holiday market was the attention to detail. The displays were mesmeriszing not to mention the boxed lunch! One a terrific and very old fashioned idea. You could buy a pink boxed lunch, which consited of a yummy 1/2 sandwich, cup of soup (it was chilly out) and chips. All done up in a pink cake box, I loved this. Nothing like a little lunch after all that shopping! I'll be back to share the pictures of my home and more new treasures I found this time around!

Happy Holidays and Joyous Noel!

Dream... Altered Art

My last project was not Halloween themed at all but a larger altered art piece that looks like a big heavy book, but actually is a hidden compartment much like a jewelery box. I love altered art, but this is by far one of largest pieces I have worked with. I hope you enjoy!

A Vintage Halloween...

Have you ever completed a piece of artwork and realized that you really like it and wanted to keep it for yourself? Over the years I have on occasion wondered "why didn't I make one for me" I think this year I will at least try and create something that is mine to keep! For now... Here is my newest Halloween treat cone. I love the very vintage trick or treat pattern on this one. It has those little Black cats, devils and pumpkins. I trimmed this one with some vintage looking black and orange Halloween garland.

I am so ready for Halloween! Its almost here.
hugs,

Devastated By Fire... The View Point Inn One of Twilights Own How you can help too.

The View Point Inn in Portland, Oregon, was devastated by fire on Sunday July 10. 2011 which hosted the Twilight Prom where Edward and Bella danced under a gorgeously lite gazebo from the first movie of The Twilight Saga. Its top floor totally burned after it was engulfed by flames

I will be donating a dollar from each sale of my Twilight related art! Your purchase helps me to help them! Even if your not a Twilight fan, the Inn is a historic landmark rich in history.

How I am going to help:

For every Twilight related Art Item I sell I will donate one dollar from My sister shop on etsy: My Brand of Heroin which carries one of kind Twilight hand made items like luminaries and altered art books.

Slipping down the Rabbit Hole...

Good Saturday Evening...

Just wanted to update everyone, contrary to popular belief I have not fallen down the rabbit hole with Alice, shrunk, stretched, scratched or stuffed into a teapot! Just feels like it.

I have been absent for a bit and missing you all terrible! This is day 8 after my little guys surgery. Its going to be a long few weeks yet but he is doing great. Its been a little rough on him and mom is pretty tired too.

More news from the Hollow, my blog and my website is getting an overhaul, please be patient until I get the website finished and back up and running with a brand new look. Until then, Im late, Im late... you know the rest.

hugs,
Heather
