It's hard to believe it's the middle of March already, and that means it's time for the first sale at Flourishes! Click on the picture above to get a better view of the schedule, and then see Aleta's blog The Silly Bear for beautiful "sneak peeks" of just some of the treasures awaiting your arrival....
The little papier mache chicks are each in their own brown paper nest. The bunny pins, created using an antique French chocolate mold, are gently rubbed to give that aged and 'worn with love' patina. Each is presented on a card perfect for your bunny's basket!
Vintage ephemera is used to create the butterflies adorned with beautifully custom-mixed glitter that will age and have a warm glow, but will not darken like some of the glass glitters. Everything is on it's way to Flourishes...Are you?!
Beautiful lovely things...I wish I was going!!! Next time!!
