A Little Creativity
I just completed this "Paris Chic" Cigar Box. It was
created with an image from Dezinaworld.
And then other embellishments, including flowers and
vintage buttons were added....
And here are my latest jewelry designs!

"Mothering Instincts" Week Begins!
Shabby Chic Torso
Hi Everyone~
Welcome to “Mothering Instincts” Week here at Whimsical Musings. I’d like to start by showing you my latest project--this “Shabby Chic Torso” now available in my Etsy shop. I have used curly seam binding ribbon to adorn this piece.
Up Close
I had no idea that it would take 10 hours to create! But, it is a real favorite of mine and I thought it would make a memorable gift for Mother’s Day.
As many of you know, I design for Shabby Cottage Studio and the torso is from their wonderful online store! (The music note graphics are from The Graphics Fairy.)
I have some wonderful news~My Paris Collage has just been featured on The Graphics Fairy’s Craft Blog....I hope you’ll check it out ~and it’s a great place to visit for new ideas!
Paris Collage--Custom Order
And before you go, I want to ask you a question....What is your earliest memory of your mom? I’ll tell you mine. I was about 3 or 4 years old and my mom bought the Snow White Album from Disney. We listened to the story and read the accompanying book together. It was a really happy moment for me.

A Little Vintage Charm
Jackson Square/New Orleans
Last week, I went to visit the St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans.
Jeanne d'Arc Necklace
While I was there, I bought a medallion of Jeanne d’Arc for my
special daughter-in-law, Nikki and created this necklace for her
with a key, a crown, and gear for her birthday.
"Charmed" Wall Hanging
Then, I created this wall hanging for her. It includes one of my
favorite images from Shabby Cottage Studio. I couldn’t wait to
make a collage using this vintage blue necklace. It is being entered
in the Spot Prize challenge at Dezinaworld where the theme is
“Charming.”
Sugar-Sweet Lollipops
Then, I made these for my grandchildren to accompany
the other gifts. Of course, the sugar is actually white glitter!
The heart images are from Shabby Cottage Studio too!
They're fun to make--Honestly, I don't know how the idea
popped into my head--but I think they'd also be cute to
stick inside a planter in the house.
While at the cathedral last week, I prayed for all of my family
and friends--and that includes all of you that I have
met while blogging.
Wishing you a beautiful weekend~A Happy Pink Saturday!
and a Spiritual Sunday!!!
