Collection Cabinet

necklace 'jolie Fleur' click on the picture to go to my shop

A while ago I went to an outlet sale of vintage findings..... everything was so tempting... I know, I spend too much money on these beautiful treasures I took home with me, not knowing what to do with it yet, but I am sure to use in my future creations. (I used the velvet flower in the necklace 'jolie fleur' on top of this blogpost)

Beautiful vintage buttons in horn,mother of pearl, lucite, african glass beads, some gorgeous olive velvet ribbon and lipstick red trim, a bunch of vintage sacks with an original turquoise pattern...
(read more about vintage buttons on this very informative blog)


and a new black room-mate (I already had a white one), isn't she cute (and a pretty figure :-))

shell of my childhood....


The new Challenge theme of the European street Team challenge is this time 'back to your childhood' hosted by febystandesigns.


Graving in my memories I found this old box with my old shell collection. When I was a child we often went to the seaside on holiday , with mum, dad, my brother and sister (not the Belgian coast but the French one) I did not like to swim, did not like the salty taste in my mouth, and while my brother and sister were building sand castles I roamed on the beach looking for little treasuries, I enjoyed collecting shells, and it never stopped, even now if I am on a beach I am always looking for those beautiful treasures of nature!


I took one of this beautiful shells with a gorgeous colorpallette (deep orange and shades of lilac purple, a beauty!) and tried to match with semi-precious stonesn dangling on a handfelted choker.
