Thank you for sharing these, I loved seeing how you displayed all your found treasures. You have a gift for putting them together that has such visual appeal!
Gives me wonderful ideas!!
Kelly I share your love of rocks and especially rocks in heart shapes. I have a few of those. I collect photos also of things that resemble hearts in nature, I know that one is kind of weird! But I collect buttons and I love your labels on your jars that look like chalk boards...how did you do that?
oh Mary! You are so sweet. From an awesome artist like you that is a huge compliment. Thank you.
Terri- for the chalkboard labels: I took chalkboard paint and painted clear contact paper. Cut a square out and plopped it on the jar. easy and cheap. my favorite!
that sounds much easier than what I've done Kelly... I put painters tape on the jars and painted the chalkboard paint right onto the jar. I think I'll try your way! Thanks!
- We collect buttons (how can you not- so darn cute, right!),
drift wood & shells from various oceans, rivers, & lakes (never thought to put in a clear jar- duh, how cute- thank you),
books (too many to count-especially from my old teaching days),
crosses,
roosters,
mason jars- love, love, love a good mason jar
and oh, beautiful finds & junk from the bottom of Les Courte Orelies at my parents cabin in WI.
Thanks for sharing Kelly- great stuff!
LOVE your collections! Great photos! I collects globes (only 2 so far!) and plates and pillows and books and quilts.
I am a collector of many things too! A friend once said I like to collect collections. I also love seeing other people's collections. I think collectors are just like that.
I fist love your heart rocks. I am a heart girl. I never knew that there were heart rocks. I'd be collecting them if I knew that. Great items you have!
xo,
Sena
Loved this one. :-)
