Shabby Winter Wedding

I'm so much in love with the shades of winter~ white of course, with mauve and gray and a generous helping of silvery blue.  What a lovely palette for a shabby winter wedding.

'Twas here my summer paused
What ripeness after then
To other scene or other soul
My sentence had begun.

To winter to remove
With winter to abide
Go manacle your icicle
Against your Tropic Bride.

~Emily Dickinson

Shabby Cranberry Earrings, Shiny Brites, and a vintage Candy Dish

I've always loved vintage glass.  Love the colors, the endless varieties of items, the memories of forgotten times.  Working with vintage glass beads is just a natural extension of that obsession.  These Cranberry Peach earrings are made with vintage two-toned German glass beads. I love the way the color shades from light to dark pink, and the tiny bubbles in the glass.

These are some of my absolute favorite vintage rhinestones. They are a very soft rosaline pink, vintage French mirror back glass stones, I think from the 1940's.  Simple, shabby, goes with everything, and absolutely free! Stop by my facebook page and enter the giveaway.
