I was playing around with some ideas for a little vignette and wanted to share some photos.....
I love the soft colors of old mason jars complete with zinc lids, something about the combination. The other is an old bottle (alcohol) and it has a very soft Lavender hint to it. The zinc vase is a flea market find for a yard sale price of $3....Crazy, right? The garden clippers have the most perfect patina of rust with hints of aqua (listed in my Etsy). The box that I use in some of these vignettes was once an old drawer that belonged to an antique dresser I have, but the other matching drawer fell out during our move and completely broke beyond repair....whats a girl to do?? Just throw the other drawer away right?....Wrong! Put some use to it, it's amazing how certain odds/ends can become so useful in your home......Anyhow, I wish you all a lovely week! P.S. I would love to ask you all a big favor? If you could please send some prayers this way, I have a minor surgery tomorrow and I am scared to pieces....I am scared of the procedure and scared of results....Thank you!! Xo ~Ashley
