pretty things


This handmade vintage place setting was given to me by my friend Natasha. I love things like this, that have been so carefully made, and I imagine this being used for a special occasion. Natasha has a lovely inspiring blog, actually she's responsible for getting me in to this wonderful world of blogging.

 


I couldn't resist these vintage tea cups, you can never have too many? At least I have an excuse, as I also need them for my garden cafe which is open along side my open studio exhibition in May.



This little button purse was sold a while ago, but it's nice to look back at older work.
I wonder where it is now ....?
