Today's playing around

Took a few of the items I have been creating up to my booth at Merchant Square today.  Check it out.

Please don't let the size of these mannequins fool you.  They are both tiny and all the clothes are pinned behind them in order to make them look better.  There's my newly recovered bench as well!

These two necklaces are made from vintage lamp crystals and an old pocket watch.  Several other necklaces are on the glass between the two display forms.  Hard to see.

Here's the torso mannequin that I purchased from Karen Lackey of Starshine Salon.  I love the jewelry draped on it.  Wonderful display piece!

Here's the corner filled with wonderful girlie clothes items.  Come for a visit at Merchant Square soon!

More projects finished

I worked on black slip dress and it is now finished.  Am happy with the end result and it will find it's way to my booth, dress form and all, this week.

Here is a close up of the top of the slip and a necklace I created.

I used a piece of vintage lace trim, dyed roses and corsage petals for the large corsage and tiny ones at the top.  The necklace was created using bits and pieces I have in my stash. 

Have also been working on necklaces made out of old keys, an old watch, and some Tim Holtz bits.  The earrings at the top of the form are out of my stash.  Click on the pictures to get a larger view in order to see detail of the slip dress and the necklaces.

This mannequin was made by Karen Lackey of Starshine Salon.  If you like this mannequin, you can find several for sale in her booth at Merchant Square.  The torso mannequins are well made and weighted so they stand up.  Check them out!
