Recreated Treasures

Sorting through photos of my work I came across this one which shows some of my Recreated Treasures. Old candleholders have been given a new look with a paint finish and beaded fringing.
The oval tray - an ex-silver tray, has roses decoupaged onto it.



The items are all sitting gracefully on a red lace runner with gold fringing.

Little Treasures

They say that great gifts can come in small packages so here are a few cute, little gift picks to browse through. The first photo shows three divinely scented natural soaps in a pink fluffy organza gift bag, sitting pretty on a pink & gold recreated bowl.



A tower of mini cushions add a whimsical, decorative touch to any room. These three are made from a gorgeous gold jacquard drape material, and trimmed with cute off-white bobble fringing.



Useful and collectable - this jewellery pouch is nestled nicely in a recreated bowl. They can be used teamed up together or separated. The jewellery pouch is handy to hold your precious jewels when travelling, and the little bowl can be left on display as a mini decor piece .... although I'd probably fill it with chocolates.

Little Bowl of Yellow Roses

This Recreated piece was in a sad state when I bought it from a recycling yard. Originally it would have had a fixed overhead handle, but the handle must have been long gone before I found the bowl. The silver that did cover it once was also long gone & the bowl needed a good clean & scrub in preparation for the recreation process. This is the final result of that recreation.

The bowl now has a ‘new life’ …. and is indeed in ‘pride-of-place’ in a new home standing proud as gorgeous little Recreated Treasure.
