Vintage Amethyst Part two

Thank you all for your lovely comments on my last post and a big welcome to new friends...we had a little make over at 'Shabbily By The Sea' this morning...with the chill in the air and the darker nights closing in we needed a little pink to warm things up a little around here and a new header picture with some of my favourite pieces.......



The 'Vintage Style Glass Dishes arrived with my wall organiser and i thought i would stage a few wedding vignette's....they are lovely and deep,so perfect for church candles,i filled mine with fresh rose petals first,they go perfect with my vintage cake stand and the sweet little musical bride was bought for me by my lovely Mum......

I added a sweet roses china plate to one and stood a vintage roses jug on top...then filled with napkins,wouldn't this look lovely on a table at a wedding?....

Before pictures of bridal jewels by candle light?......

The ruffled rose in the glass dish above next to the candle is David Austin 'Cottage Rose and the beautiful blousy roses on the table are David Austin 'Spirit Of Freedom'....i adore both....although i can hardly wait come June to smell 'Spirit Of Freedom' again.....

I love this vintage cheese dish so very much it is covered in roses and lily of the valley...it will be sitting on my wedding table for sure.....

I love,love,love this Victorian vase dripping in jewels and so wish i could paint roses like that,don't you?......

Looking at these pictures makes me very happy that i ordered these glass dishes as they go perfectly with everything i already have......

I found these vintage aurora borealis earings in a charity shop and they go perfect with my dress as it is covered in them...i couldn't resist putting them in the roses but then they do look oh so pretty.....

The Vintage Style Glass dish can be found here Vintage Amethyst

Vintage Amethyst part one

The lovely Alison at Vintage Amethyst had  a super offer for us girls in the Uk to have free postage and packing over the weekend and i snapped her arm of with some pretty things i have had my eye on for a while.....first was this 'Vintage Style Wall Organiser'.......It will be hung on the wall of the cottage in my sewing room....

It has lots of storage spaces with cute little name plates which i am going to make little cards for.....the 'divine twine' and velvet Raffit ribbons are from Donna Flower i just love her name by the way.....

Such a handy place to store my pretties and bits and bobs for inspiration....

Or to place items for a particular project i am working on,instead of having everything all over my desk......

It also has a very handy draw.....i have placed cards of vintage trims and embroidery silks in mine........

You can see from the picture above of the draw that it has a lovely aged texture and lots of worn paint which i adore...it really is a lovely piece and i am so happy i ordered one.......

Want one?....need one.......gotta have one?......... go here Vintage Amethyst
