                                 Today I want to show you two boxes I altered.
                                   A wooden oval that I found in a thrift shop,
                                   and a little cheese box of the laughing cow.

                                    It is so fun to make something special of
                             things that otherwise would have been thrown away.....

                                        I finally finished this wooden box .
                                            I made the lid ages ago and
                                                shared it on my blog ,
                                but could never come to finish the whole thing ,
                               there were a lot of other items I wanted to make......... : )
                               now here's the end result and I'm so glad I can
                                                  display it properly...........
                                       

 

                                             Before and after.............

Fabric Book for Doni 2/4

                                            Hello dear Blog Friends,

                     Last week I showed you the outside of the fabric book
                          I made for Doni from Faith , Grace and Crafts.
                              here are the photo's of the first six pages......

           ( some of them are made in an earlier state , so there will be missing things
                          I added later,............... sorry about that )
                   

 

 

I made pockets . Also because I love the back of the fabric.

 

 

                            The two swans hold a little needle book.

 

                   Tried to personalize this pages. Doni plays the violin and I wanted
                   to show some of the Faith , Grace ( and graceful : ) and Crafts here.....


                  

This music ( below ) goes with a little story .

I was looking for some music to go with the image

of this lovely lady . 

Found this 

on Pinterest and pinned it .

A few days later there was a comment on this pin .

It was from Doni , who told me that she won her scolarship

with playing this particular music .

Can you believe that !!!!

                        
                 Made two tags to go with the book. There will be some pockets left
                                       when they have been taken out .
                                   

 

  

 

                                       To be continued......



                                        Hope you enjoyed.......


                                                                     With Love,
                                                                                  Wilma.

   

My first Doily Book

                                    Hello my dear Blog sisters  : )

                     Last week I posted about my adventure in Limburg .
                      Today I want to share one of the things I made
                                         for this occasion .


                         On You Tube I saw some lovely Doily Books
                                just had to try and make one myself......

                                      
                    Doni, I'm sure you'll recognize some of the beautiful
                   things you sent me.........most of the pink goodies : ) !!
                                Thank you again, dear friend ......
                                   

                                  This little butterfly I had for years,
                       it sat on an antique Christmas decoration that broke,
                                   but I couldn't let the butterfly go.
                               At last I found it a new place to stay : )

                             The pretty Victorian Lady was gifted to me
                                    by a very dear, supportive friend ,
                            who's always looking out for things I can use
                                             in my creations.
                                    Thank you so much Yvonne... !!!
                           I think it's the most wonderful place for her.....
                                         admiring the butterfly..... !!!!!
