Cake Under Glass

Marty from a Stroll Thru Life brought to my attention the beauty of the "Cloche." I have always noticed this lovely work of art, but never really paid any attention to the possibilities of using one.
The ideas are endless, just use your imagination.
I created this yummy little slice of cake just for displaying on this pedestal cloche. I think it looks perfect, and just like all my other treats, this is fat free, calorie free and sugar free. You would never know by looking at her. : )


I think the addition of faux pearls adds the certain touch that creates some magic. I also started making my own clay roses and adding those as well.


Yummy! Looks good enough to eat.


The cloche can be on or off. Looks so good with or without the top. Serve this was and use the glass cloche for something else that's fabulous.


This and more can be found on my website, Someplace In Thyme. Gesh, suddenly I feel the need for something sweet.

Having Fun In My Studio Today

I have to admit, I count my blessings everyday. As I sit here and blog, I can smell the sweet scent of Jasmine coming in through the family room door. It's just beautiful and reminds me to not only stop and smell the roses, but also to be grateful for being able to do what I do......bringing you lovely items to enjoy. What a life!
This is my latest creation, a glass vanity bottle, decorated with lots and lots of pretties.
Working (maybe I should say "playing") with strands of faux pearls, crimped seam binding and lots of handmade as well as silk flowers, life is certainly a joy each day and working in my studio becomes not work at all.........just fun!

The topper has been painted a creamy white and decorated on one side with jewels. I also layered pearls around the top. Pearls, flowers, ribbons and glue, what more could a girl ask for??!!

This label is one of my favs. I added some little gems to the bottom and also surrounded the edges with an opaque glitter. Yummy!!

My latest pillow creation in lavenders and purples. It's a roll pillow with added blooms on the ends. What could be more romantic?

Isn't she just lovely? Surrounded by ribbons, flowers and hummingbirds. Soft and romantic, you get the feeling she is from another time.....
Below the image, this one of a kind pillow is embellished with an applique pearls and sequins.

Lots of pretty flowers on the ends.

This pillow has a double ruffle and the ends are a beautiful, sheer fabric.
What a day and I am very happy. I hope your days are as fun filled and bright as mine was today.
Thank you for stopping by and these two items can be found on my website, Someplace In Thyme.

VINTAGE DESSERT PLATE WITH CUPCAKE


A beautiful china dessert plate re-purposed onto a glass candle holder and there you have it.....a lovely pedestal to display something special like a faux cupcake.




Just look at all that yummy goodness! Pretty handmade paper roses and pansies too. The plate has pink roses and sagey green leaves. Very shabby and very sweet.


This and more can be found this week on my website, Someplace In Thyme. I hope you enjoy this latest creation. More coming right up.

Beautiful displayed on a beautiful dessert plate or perfect for gift giving too.

Such yummy goodness, this would also make a wonderful gift.

TRIO OF SNOW WOMEN

A sweet trio of snow people for your holiday decorating. Made of heavy cardboard, these sweeties have been painted, sugared with german glass glitter and decorated......

White paper roses and pink and white roses on the hat, this snow person is the only one of the trio with arms. A white satin ribbon bow at the neck.

This is a snowlady for sure with her faux pearls, pearls around her hat and a ribbon bow. She is a delight and as with the other two, she hangs 10" including the hanger.

These would be adorable on the tree, but thinking outside the box, each one would make a lovely teacher's gift or decoration on a package....very shabby and sweet. I hope you enjoy them, they will be available on my website later today.
