Nature pincussion , and beach finds

Although I am sewing angels for my own shop, I just had to make this little pincussion

today, in the mittle of all the angel creating.

I loved to ecco the branches on the beautifull image (I will try to find out,from where I got it)

with some real branches.It looks beautifull together with all the white.

__________It will be in my Etsy___________

On one of my beach tours, I found those small driftwood pieces

(the black one is from a tire)

And turned one of them into a holder for some stamped cotton ribbons,

that are now on it`s way to a sweet blogging friend.

I so hope you all have a wonderfull week-end

it has turned cold and very stormy here, but I have seen the sun,too .

Many dear thoughts to you all,with

hugs and love.

Little heart angels for my ETSY

I made 3 small  ( app.6")  heart angels for my Etsy-

here is one of them- --you can click the link to go see all 3.

They are made in beautifull cotton fabric , with wings of tulle

and a "heart-wort" added with buttons

***********

Thiese other pincussions with some spoonfulls of  lavender inside,

are made with old embroidered flower flacons, where I added a vintage

immage, and some buttons .

Some of them may be in Etsy later.

And this is a fabulous buquet, of gorgeus roses.

I`m sending all of you lots of hugs, and love-

with hopes for a happy day/evening.

A new idea, ---and photoes from my house and shop

This is a  ATC like small thing, that just had to be done today,before closing up my shop....

The new in it  -for me anyway- is the bupple plastic,that I used between

the layers of fabric--it gives the piece a feeling of heaviness,and I like the look ,when adding a bit of paint over it.

Yesterday my dear friend Diane and her daughter Holly (click to see their wonderfull Etsy shop)

asked me to see where i`m living on this beautifull island,--So I took some photoes of my house, and shop,for you to see.

This is the yard, the windows on the right is my kitchen.

The  angel in front of the parkingplace, and the privat house in the right.

You can see how close the water is...

This is in front of my shop

Here a funny street sign,that my husbond had in birthday gift from our friend Matthias Masswig, a german friend  and artist visiting us every summer.

The sign over my shop

An old mail box, with a plant inside

The privat house and garden again

Here around the corner to show you the view to the sea again

I got the photoes mixed up, and blogger will not let me take them back,---so this is how it will stay for this time.

************************

I hope you enjoyed the trip, and wishes all a happy evening-

also I welcome the newest followers, ---I`m now at my 200-----

I`m so happy to meet everyone of you, thanks to you all to visit me here, it means a lot to me.

*********************

I will soon celebrate the 200 followers with a little sweet giveaway!!!!!

Lots og hugs, and love

NOTEBOOK- from Beth and Karla`s workshop

Back home again, to a wonderfull september weather,

I could not resist making  Beth`s notebook, from the

Gothic tales .

I would have used the images given in the workshop, but then I discovered that JAN  from

Digital Antiques just offered a wonderfull dige sheet with Gothic Arches.

I bought it straight away, and used some of the images, for a

quick and easy , mini noteboog.

The little bird on the right is a stamp!

But the rest is from the digi sheet-in wonderfull brownish tones.

My book is for now with 5 pages-I used old hanging maps ,from some office, as background,

and have more or less note- place on the pages.

This is the backside of the book.

I will try to find time for making the Tote bag, too, but ----I must also sew to my real shop,here.

I hope all of you are having great september dayes, and wishes you

a beautifull day.

Love and hugs, Dorthe

New golden mermaid

This little sweet mermaid will be added to my Etsy later.

She is a lovely creature from the East sea.

A beautifull flower greeting, I love them rose colored .

But there are not many flowers left here anymore, some of my roses

will bloom again, but almost everything else, have said goodbye for the summer,

waiting to gather power, for a review next spring--where did the summer go?

Passed away so quickly!!!

But some of you are just about to enjoy summer now, the rest of us will enjoy autumn,-

I will anyway.

Have a lovely evening all,

Love to you, with hugs.

Last artch piece, and the finished banner

Today was the last artch-piece , for the banner,and I thought I would use

a photo I just took,the other night --of the moon--

The poor hunted woman standing under the artch,waiting for something to happen--

UUHHHH

Here you can see, my use of gold glitter

I made the banner to hang from a tiny golden methallic thread,

on a cord---black/white.

As you maybe notice I added a twig to the second piece,-and a black lace to the first one--

just had to ,to make me feel sattisfied!

Thanks for this first great class.

Hope you are all well,

love and hugs, Dorthe
