Things are BLOOMing over in our Etsy shop!

Spring has really sprung in our ever blooming glass plate flowers garden. 5 new blooms have just popped up. They are all impatiently waiting to be adopted and wish to bring some color and joy to your garden! You can view them all on Etsy.

Flower number one is a beautiful blend of red, green, gold and white.The green accent piece is a vintage saucer.

Flower number two is beautiful and blue. Fresh and floral......perfect for the blue lover. The center medallion is a gorgeous vintage piece.

Flower number three is bright and "sunny." The red and yellow palette is just cheerful and the amazing sunflower plate is superb.

 Flower number four is oozing with vintage charm. It is created from a gold rimmed egg plate, a pink china bowl, a vintage flower and accented with a shiny gold vintage button.

Flower number five is happy and colorful to the max. It just says "Hi, notice me." The base plate is very artsy and is topped with vibrant layers of yellow and blue.

LOVE the concept but not the colors, shapes....just contact me and I will be happy to work with you on designing your own custom flower. If you have sentimental dishes that you would like us to use, we are happy to do that as well. We call it Memory Glass.....it is such a joy for me to look out into my yard and see flowers and totems that I have made from both of my Grandmother's dishes.

As always, we welcome your feedback. We'd LOVE for you to share our blog with you friends, family and associates. Any questions, give us a shout. Contact me here, on Facebook or our Etsy Shop! Love the concept....by all means, let us know. We LOVE custom orders!

What's on the worktable - new stained glass mosaic windows

Thought I would share my B-I-G news! I was contacted by a gal about my stained glass mosaic windows. She saw them on Etsy and loved them! <--googley-eyed grin.
She is opening a coffee shop over near Delray Beach, Fl and wanted to use them as the focal point for her decor! Woo Hoo! I am so excited. She ordered EIGHT of them.....the four I had listed and 4 more I am currently working on. In addition I am working on 6 others, 4 for Etsy and 2 for a possible consignment location. I'll share them as I go so you can see their progress.

She asked for some oranges, reds and yellows as two are mostly blues. Here is my orange version in the rough cut stage.

Here is another 9 pane I am making for the Etsy shop. I just LOVE this window! It will have a clear glass mosaic background when completed.

I have 2 more rough cut out to share soon......one a Frank Lloyd Wright inspired "wheat" design in primary colors and the other a beautiful muted shades of purple, green and gold featuring some amazing daisy patterned pressed glass. Stay tuned! :)

Don't forget our 20% off sale is still going on through the end of the month!

Moving sale continues and a project.....

So, we are still in a holding pattern on housing, but hey, why worry yet, right. We still have 13 days! Ack! Will we rent, buy, build? Will we live in a hollow tree (Hey FREE cookies). Who knows? Meanwhile, I have decided to continue our moving sale until the end of the month. I, thanks to Wonder Boy's brilliant suggestion, packed nearly everything up in coded, ready to ship boxes, so all is well. :)

Today I have done some Markdowns & Re-listings, the  20% coupon is still valid until 9/30 [MOVING20] and 10 new windows are in the works over in the Etsy shoppe.......hope you'll stop by! :)

I actually have still been repurposing a bit, here & there. It's hard when your toys are all packed up! :::sniffle, sigh:::. But I can share the newest addition to the "Perfectly Pink, Peacock, Princess, Pirate bedroom" that belongs to Her Royal Majesty Princess Pookie and her humble Mistress Servant, me!

I scooped up this amazing (albeit disgustingly dirty lamp) this summer at a sale. I knew it was the perfect bedside lamp I had been dreaming of. So, Hubs and I tackled her.

He rewired her and I repainted her "parts" Flat Black (After using my fave Krylon Gray primer of course).

While he is rewiring her, he says, "You know that the bottom glass lights up too, right? 
Squeal!! Why no, no I did not. How seriously cools is that?
I have my own beautiful night light.....awesome. I already have one repurposed light on my dresser with a gorgeous black beaded shade (which I just happened to have another one of) So, now she is adorned with proper, shiny head wear! What do you think? I think she is purrrrrrfect.

Oh, btw, ignore the naked nightstand. It is usually adorned with pretties and a to-die-for embroidered vintage peacock dresser scarf....but you know....it's packed! :::Sigh:::

My first created Treasury on Etsy - Repurpose

Today I made my first Treasury on Etsy. It is 16 totally unique and repurposed pieces that I think are worthy of your time! Please take a peek and share the love! Enjoy!

...and then there was reprupose

Newly listed dessert stands today on Etsy.....

Finally had a few minutes to list some new goodies on Etsy this afternoon. Here is a sneak peek at some of them! More to come in the next few days! Seems I am in a blue mood! Let me know what you think. Do you have a favorite?

Another new window and two etched repurposed mirrors....

....that also made their debut at last weekend's show in Winter Haven. We had a good day sans the blistering sunburn and the gale force winds which saw fit to claim a few of our pieces! Ugh! But the people were great and we gave some ART new homes and that is why we were there. I think I may have picked up a couple of custom window jobs too which I truly LOVE to do!
Anywho.....here is the new window called "Denim Dreams."

also added 2 new mirrors to the lineup.....one has already sold. Every time I use this verse, "His eye is on the sparrow, I know he watches me" I can't keep it in stock! :) It was my Gma's verse! The other mirror is a fave of mine and says simply, "BELIEVE."

The sparrow mirror was repurposed from a vintage medicine cabinet that DH added a hanger to the back up that I rescued from a church tag sale! :) Check out our Etsy shop for these and other great repurposed works of ART.
