Hello my dear friends, I had such a lovely time yesterday evening. Being creative was exactly what I needed and I am happy to share what I made with all of you. I love Victorian pieces and especially ones that are beautiful 'working pieces'. With that in mind I went to work on my newest pincushion using the little antique wire work basket I had shared with you in yesterday's post. Gray colored velvet and of course seam binding were a must too. You all already knew that my vintage velvet violets were going to be a part of this creation and I also decided to use one of the only two old tattered velvet violet leaves as well. All together they have become a lovely new pincushion which I have named ... "A Basket Full Of Posies". And this is it ... I couldn't be happier with my newest creation because it turned out exactly the way I had pictured it in my mind. Old and used and just so pretty too. I will be listing this pincushion for sale in my Etsy shop some time tomorrow morning in case any of you might be interested. I hope you have enjoyed my newest piece of work. Thank you for stopping by and visiting me here at Todolwen. It is always so nice when you do. I hope you are well my dear friends and life is treating you kind. Have a peaceful and creative day.

Hello my dear friends, after what seems like such a long time I ventured out with my daughter Ashleigh today to one of the antique stores I visit and I found something lovely! I actually had seen this beauty some time ago and then it was gone ~ sold I thought but today it was back and I wasn't going to let it get away again and now it is mine. I am talking about a lovely vintage hat covered in vintage millnery flowers in the form of velvet violets. Small ones and larger ones ... light ones and darker ones ... many, many voilets! Needless to say that after arriving home with it, it didn't take long for the scissors to came out and play, clipping threads here and there and freeing the lovely blooms from their bed of dark blue fabric. To tell you the truth I haven't got any creation in mind just yet for these beautiful blossoms but I am sure if I look at them long and often enought something will grow in my mind to give them a new life! Such beauty! All together I 'picked' 75 vintage tattered voilets! I am so excited to see what new creation will come to blossom from these violets! Please be sure to stop by Todolwen every now and again to see what I am up to, and to see what happens with this wonderful treasure I picked up today! I hope you are well and life is treating you kind. Have a peaceful and creative day, Karen B. ~ Todolwen
A look at the different 1920s hat embellishments I can use to make my modern Marks & Spencer cloche look more authentic.
"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." ~Coco Chanel Why do we love french things? For me it is almost an obsession! French antiques, french decor, french fashion, books, music, photographs, buildings, street lamps, food, and the unmistakable presence of french femininity - all of these things fascinate me! If I round the corner of a shop and standing before me is a piece of furniture with rare curved lines and gold detail I know immediately that it is french. Nothing else comes close to the beauty of french antiques and decor. My Mum and I are constantly on the hunt for these treasures! This summer my Mum happened (completely by chance in one of those extraordinary and thrilling moments of discovery) upon an incredible french piece. A beautiful cabinet on tall legs with gorgeous gold designs all over it's perfect creamy surface! We were in raptures! I have been working on this little photoshoot for awhile - never quite convinced that I have perfectly captured how pretty our french room looks now. I added a few things for the pictures like my beautiful white chair with the GORGEOUS ruffled throws from Shabby Fufu, the small flower back chair, the antique gold frame, french china, and drippy crystal candelabra. Ici, c'est notre beau français chambre! I am linking with: What's It Wednesday Tuesday Treasures

These cherry blossoms were part of a misguided sewing project. So I took it apart--with my beloved Gingher seam ripper--and saved the flowers. They were rolling around on my desk, so I put them in a jar to keep them...

Hi All, I have been looking high and low thru all forums, publications, etc for instructions for a ROSE shaped pillow made of velvet that I made at least 7 years ago. It was mainly a long triangle of velvet, coiled and hand stitched. Does anyone recall where I might find these instructions? Thanks so much, Susan Day, Springfield, IL
