                                                  Hi everyone , 

                                              Long time no see...... ,
                              I've been busy to get my things ready for the
                                          Victorian Christmas Fair.

                  I'm far from what I have in mind , so it's still a work in progress ,
                                       but I'm okay with what I see .

                                      Wanted to give you an update......
                           so here are pictures of some of my efforts so far.

                       The first time I saw Christmas Boots like these was at
                             Jennelise's gorgeous Blog. So this is where my
                              inspiration came from. Click Here and Here
                                    to see the most romantic blog ever !!

Memories Birthday Present

Hi everyone, (scroll just a bit to read the English text : ).

Vorige week was mijn vriendin jarig. Met mijn cadeautje voor haar wilde ik iets uit haar leven uitlichten.

Het idee om een memoriespel te veranderen kwam van Viola van "Shabby Chic Inspired"
Om haar prachtige weblog te zien klik "HIER"
"Dank je wel Viola, jouw kunst is echt zó prachtig.
Dit is zo'n leuk idee, ik wilde er ook graag iets mee doen....".

Dit is het resultaat......

De afbeeldingen die gebruikt zijn komen van de Freebiesblogs die in de sidebar vermeld staan.

Mijn gedachte was om afbeeldingen te vinden die momenten, fases, processen en passie's in Annette's

leven aangeven. Soms is één plaatje natuurlijk niet alleen maar één van alles, maar meerdere daarvan tegelijk.

Last week my friend celebrated her birthday and I decided to make her a present that shows a little bit of her life.
The altering of the memoriegame was inspired by Viola's "Shabby chic inspired".
You can find her in the sidebar of my weblog under favorites.....
"Thank you Viola, your art is absolutely wonderful.
I loved your idea so much that I wanted to try and do something with it.......".

My plan was to find images that represent moments, fases, passions and processes in Annette's live.
Ofcourse in some cases one picture is not just one of all but more of it at the same time.
(sometimes I'm not so sure of my expression in English....
hope you understand what I'm trying to say :).

The images I used came from the Freebiesblogs mentioned in the sidebar.

A few pictures of my workingprocess.....  :)

Before and after.....

Congratulations Annette..........!!

See you next week,

With love,

                     Wilma

Teacups

                                       Hi everyone ,

         It's not that long ago that I wouldn't dream of going to a thrift shop
                               to look for old pieces of china .
                 I can't imagine I felt like that....! I love to go there now.
                    I'm very fortunate....... mr.B. likes to go with me : )).
                  We found our favorite places where we regularly go
                         to see if they've got some "new" old stuff .
         Sometimes it isn't even a problem when it's been broken and mended .
                              Just because the old look of it ,
                      .....or the colour...... or how it's decorated .
                             Like this cream and sugar set .
                  I like to use pieces to decorate with or make them
                                   a part in my work .
                        The little vase was my grandmother's ,
                        I can still see it standing on her table........

                    Maybe it's fun to show you some of my finds .............
