I've been taking a little break from making flowers over the last week and a half, but there have been other wedding related things going on. Our hessian rose heads arrived from Accents and Petals, they are so effective, I just need to work out how to get them on a stem!
I have also worked my way through our collection of jars, rewashing and trying to make sure all the glue has been removed, with a little help from my friend bicarbonate of soda. Then I had to cut paper inserts, cutting leaf shapes out for the light to pass through. Oh don't worry, they won't catch fire, we are using LED candles. Fingers suffered a fair bit, all sores and blisters, as each jar took about and hour to cut, ouch! The jars will also need to be finished with a ribbon.
This week I was very excited at the car boot at seeing small dogs being pushed around in a pushchair - What is not to love? I spent a day hanging out with my friend and her little dude. We went for lunch at the Lion and Lamb Bistro in Farnham, love that little courtyard! Little dude Archie is just at the point where he is starting to smile, super cute! We had parcels from afar! The Philippines to be exact, I've never seen so many stamps in one place - there were some on the bottom too! So now we have a vintage suitcase full of wood shaving flowers, they are so pretty and I'm so pleased with them! They are available form Accents and Petals on Artfire.
