First of all thank you to all the girls participating in the Tree Topper Swap. We have a great group and I know we can expect to see some beautiful things. If you have any questions or problems, please let me know. Mail date is December 7th.
Well, many of our friends are in Silver Bella Land!! I'm sure they are having a wonderful time. Lots of laughter and glitter flying all over the place! It will be fun to hear all about it.
I've made another Merry canvas which is QUITE over the top. I'm not sure why I kept adding and adding things to this. It's my tribute to Hetta Hopper. I have also left the sticker on my sunglasses as my tribute to Minnie Pearl! Why not have a canvas honoring Hetta Hopper?? All my family members roll their eyes at my sunglasses and Brian says my Merry canvas is out of balance. If it were up to him all objects would have their mirror image evenly by their sides. He knows nothing of true balance.
Just look at those incredible old glass bulbs with tinsel on them! It's just a big blob of vintage goodness! No wonder I couldn't stop piling it on.
Now, for something a little, actually, A LOT different. This is on a 5 inch round canvas. I love that huge vintage brooch and wanted to showcase it in some way. I think I like this. The wallpaper continues to be one of the favorites of my entire collection.
Also, please keep an eye out for some of my artwork at Speckled-Egg. I believe it starts November 25 or so. Some of my artwork along with several other artists will be for sale through December!
MERRY is mine..... i have to have that one! don't let anyone else buy it please, lol!

I do like the colors in the birdy medallion. It's very Daisy Cottage, to me.
