Introspection......... :)

                                           Hello my dear Blogfriends .

                                           It has been a long time........
                                        2015 was a hard year for me.
                                      There were a lot of health issues ,
                                         so the best thing to do was
                                      withdraw, take a rest and do some
                                                  introspection......

                                        I 've been thinking a lot about
                                         the best way to use my time .
                           Having a weblog is wonderful , and I really enjoy it ,
                                       but , for me , it will be too much 
                  if I would be back with my "Shabby Royale" the way it used to be ,
                             and to keep up with all of your beautiful blogs .
                                         
                                          

                        I wanted to let you know the reason of the silence
                in my place , and why it probably will be like this in the future .
                 My blog will stay for now , not sure what to do with it yet ,
                   and in this way I hope to visit your blogs now and again : ).


                                           THANK YOU ALL


                     for being a follower or visitor , for your time , visits and
                           all of your sweet and encouraging comments !!
           It was so good to have friends here and to share the love for creating !!
                   I have learned a lot from you and I thank you for sharing
                   all of your beautiful and inspiring creations on your blogs ,
                                          but most of all for your

                                        INSPIRING WORDS.
                          

                                 I feel sad writing this , but I know
                             it 's the right decision to spend less time
                             on the internet and focus on other things .

                                      
                               

                       "May God hold you in the palm of His Hand" !!!
                                              
                                                                           With Love ,
                                                                                      Wilma .

Where Bloggers Create 2015

Hello everyone,

Welcome to my little space

in Blogland !!

First of all 

Thank you so, so much Karen Valentine

at ' My Desert Cottage' !!

for hosting this wonderful event

The Where Bloggers Create Party 2015. 

My name is Wilma, I'm honored

that you take time to visit my blog,

to see my creative space.

This is my second time I participate,

in 2013 was my first and

if you'd like to see the make over,

by Mr.B.,

of our attic to my work space 

click Here.

Last year my Mr. B.

made a dream come true

by adding a lot of shelves

to my work table.

You see the result in the pictures

that I want to share with you. 

I'm not going to do a lot of text,

and really hope you'll feel at home :)

here we go........

                                   Above containers with things
                                            I made to sell.

                              The 'chocolate' cakes I made for centerpieces......

                                In this wicker basket I keep lots of fabric snippets,
                                       find it hard to throw them away...... :)

                                  Love to alter perfume bottles, there are some
                                   lovely friends that save their empty bottles
                                                        for me.....

                                         The book is a work in progress
                                         it contains little thriftshop finds,
                                 that I have for years and didn't know where
                                                     to put them
                                              a ' junk book ' to be....... : )
                                         Hope to show you in a later post
                                                  when it's finished........

                                   the man in the photo seems to be family,
                                          from a long looong time ago,
                                         but no one knows who he was.............
                                    well, kinda weird photo anyway  LOL               
                                          

                                  This desk with the (white) sewing machine
                                   is the one my father made his sermons at.
                                         He passed away in 1973 and I'm
                                         very happy to have this memory.

                            an other work in progress...it's an old jewelry box.....
                               

                                     Some decoupage on the Ikea drawers....

                             This crazy quilt block is the result
                           of a CQ course I did some months ago.
                        It was given by Kathy Shaw, to see her blog
