It's Monday again and time for Show and Tell! Thanks for stopping by! For today's Show and Tell I have a few things I would like to share.
I have been in my artful mood lately. I am painting on pillows again. I happen to love the Victorian era and love pictures of Victorian children. So I painted two little girls who I call "Little Sisters". I painted them on a beige rose designed fabric. I added some detail which I thought would be different. I sewed on sleeves and added white eyelet trim to the neckline. I also put pretty handmade roses on the heads of each girl. I still need to work on the bottom of the pillow,but as you can see it is almost done. Then I will list it. Hope you like it.
On Saturday I spent the day with my family at a Spring Festival. It was so much fun. We ate good food ,went on rides,played games ,listened to music and I even got to visit a few tables with crafts and vintage items. I bought a beautiful blond haired porcelain doll and these gorgeous handmade vintage Easter eggs as you can see below...
And would also love to share a wonderful gift I received from Jennifer of Cottage Flair. She had a giveaway recently and I won! Yay! It's such a good feeling to win. I won a book called "The Vision Board". I can't wait to read it! I love that the book tells you that it will change your life. We all need positive influence. So thank you to Jennifer!! And please visit her shop if you get a chance. She has the prettiest products!
Hope you enjoyed my Show and Tell. And please visit my pink sisters at Make Mine Pink to see what wonderful things they want to show you for Show and Tell.
Wishing you a wonderful week everyone!
