Repurpose.........

What have I been up to lately?

A Lot!!

Affaire at Tiffany's is coming!

And I am in 5 swaps!!

A bottle, a tiara, a jewelry box, slippers and a charm.......

Oh my!

I am happy to say 4 out of 5 are DONE!!:)

Although I would love to show them all to you because they are so cute I don't want to give them away!!! I can't:( Who knows who reads this and I wouldn't want to spoil any surprises.....Erin ;)

But while I was making my bottle I got  the inspiration for this little beauty and since my hot glue gun was fired up and I had lace a flyin' I just kept on going............

Isn't she soooo stinkin' cute!!!

Her base is a vintage pharmacy bottle. Her top is a broken bit from a doll (that I got from Tara and Crystal who will be at Bead Works in Brea this coming weekend) and I hot glued it to a vintage tart tin for stability. Her skirt is cut up sari ribbon and lace with some bling chain thrown in. Also just some plain old chain that looks cool with beads and charms hanging from it.

This is how she started. I had three garage sale, flea market finds and I made them into something totally cool! If you have any artsy feeling in you, you totally understand. And if you don't well maybe you can least see the beauty of the insanity:)

Love her!!

Well time to get my head out of the clouds and go to work!

Have a great day!!
