Candy box blue ribbon,
much older lace,
beige ticking that covered an old mattress until I tore it off.
French postcard of a
girl in blue
holding an egg.
New life old age.

Not an Easter bonnet for me! A pouch to collect the Easter eggs when the church bells ring!
I created this pouch to honor those arts and craft bloggers, who I admire. Their daily creative talent! Thank you for showing me to live an artistic way! To create!
If you go to my ABOUT page you will see my links, there you will see some of my favorite Arts and Crafts blogs.

This is yummy in all its forms. I just adore the victorian woman and egg. I have always wished I lived during that time period. So romantic!

The lady is so beautiful. I wonder what her story was...? Wouldn't it be fun to know?

I love the 'nest' in the postcard. No namby-pamby melange of twigs, that is a nest to respect.

Corey, You definitely live in an artistic way... and I love being able to witness it each day with each new post... new life old age recreating becoming.. it could become one of my mantras.

It looks like something from the turn of the century rather than a modern day creation.
I think it's a really charming way to collect easter eggs :)

I really like the muted tones of this photograph...just a touch of blue like the robin's egg. Your love of beautiful vintage things is so evident in the way you present them to us...pieces of wonderful treasures that hold many secret stories.
