Dress Form Party!!

Join the Dress Form Party at The Polka Dot Closet!

I did and what fun!

and what fun taking pics of my crazy mannequin. Not enough light inside so I carried it outside.

Collecting dress forms have become increasingly difficult to find, and I love them.

An expandable mannequin comes in handy when altering garments, here it has been relegated to holding my pins. Many will be available at the Brayton Cottage shop.

Krumpet enjoyed the photo fun as well!

he loves to part of everything..

you must visit the

POLKA DOT CLOSET  to see all the dress forms.

and thanks  for visiting here,

Shopping in Paris part two

I know just where I would love to go again in Paris... 

where I want to dine...

with someone very special... 

how I would dine...

and what I would select...

always prepared for a day, at least, 

for casual shopping...

and what I would purchase.

More elegant shopping, 

wait, what in Paris is not elegant?

a splurge of a lifetime...

my retreat at the end of a Paris pink day, and coming back to the apartment with

more drawings to add to the wall that I sketched that day....

Ready to go?

BLOG GIVEAWAY: SHABBY APPLE JEWELRY

 Having a wonderful giveaway here at Brayton Homestead

for a lovely necklace from

SHABBY APPLE

 

SHABBY APPLE contacted me and asked if I would like to pick out
 a  piece of their vintage inspired jewelry for a giveaway. I was so excited as I thought their jewelry would be a perfect fit...

 

love the whole store, including this candle in the home section,
so with much thought, I selected  the

ALICE IN WONDERLAND

inspired necklace.

Shabby Apple is a wonderland to visit, it is fabulous!

Love the fashions, jewelry and home accents.

Love this outfit head to toe to accent..

with this necklace, pink of course...

My vintage Collage Jewelry creations





This is one of my jewelry collage necklaces that I made

for my vintagedchic shop.

My line is named

"Junket Krumpet"

named after you know who..

There are other pieces almost finished,

and perfect for Silver Sunday at

Gypsy Fish Journal.



... here is my newest necklace, I call the The Alice Spoon. A collage made up of an old spoon and hardware findings . It's a little French, a bit steam punk and all vintagedchic.

Vanity Clues

Atop her vanity a jewelry box overflows with mementos and memories; a violin pin her son gave her, a Mother pin she had given her Mom, a stain glass mirror from my friend Lisa and my favorite photo of my twin brother (on the left) and me ~tucked in the corner. Have I mentioned I love leopard?

Can a vanity top or jewelry box reveal something about a person? I think mine says I love vintage and pink, but you knew that by my blog. Nothing valuable, enjoy my baubles...
What does yours say about you?
