I wanted to share with you
some of the Hearts in my personal collection...
you got have heart!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A new piece that is going to be a Valentine
for someone very special....
I call her "Sew Sweet".
She is a thread holder, scissor holder and a pin keep.
The inspiration for this piece came from a
wonderful old Fraktur Angel and a sweet, very worn
antique pin keep. I used an antique German
porcelain doll's head, some hand-dyed velvet, silk ribbon,
some vintage German milliner's flowers and
a wool paisley from the 1800's to make the pin keep.
It is filled with sawdust and a small amount
of cherry tobacco for a wonderful faint aroma.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here is a selection of pieces from my website
that may tug at your heartstrings or
be the perfect thing for your sweetheart...

Hope you all have a Happy Valentine!
