A Sweet Gift ..

Hello my dear friends,

today I would like to share a gift I received from my daughter Ashleigh from one of our outings last week.

It is a small standing mirror. When we saw it in the store first, I was telling her how I think that it would look amazing silver gilded and aged and since she knows how much I love to make things 'mine' she bought it for me as a sweet gift with the thought of me working with on it one day.

 I am going to think about what I could do with it for a while but right now I am going to enjoy it as it is!
 

 







 

I love these little birds looking into the mirror at themselves ~ so sweet!
 
 
 I can't wait for me to be able to start this project .. hopefully that will be soon!
Of course I couldn't resist heading to Michaels already with my 50% off coupon to purchase what I needed.


I bought the smallest packet of silver gilding just in case I don't become a fan of it.
Now all I need is the right idea and time to start.

It would be so nice if you were to come back soon and visit me again here at Todolwen.
 I have new treasures to share with you from this last weekend when church sale season started.

I hope you are well my dear friends and life is treating you kind.

Have a peaceful and creative day,


Karen B.

  3. If that isn't the sweetest thing I've ever seen....you've got my envy! If 'twere me I wouldn't be able to concentrate on much else thinking about what I was going to do with it.

    Lucky you having such a great daughter.
