~Belle et Douce~ Beautiful & Sweet ~

 ~Belle et Douce~ Beautiful & Sweet
 is made up with some of my 
Most Favorite and Treasured Pieces. 
 I Love that Each Piece 
tells a Story from the Past.
 I Look at the Beautiful Piece
 of Edwardian Lace
And Wonder about the Dress it Came From.
What it Looked Like when it was New.
 I wonder about Who sipped Soup
 from this Silver spoon
and the Woman who Wore this
Rhinestone Pin.
 I Love using Antique & Vintage Elements 
In my Art Work. 
I just Feel it gives them something Unique and Special, 
Making all a Truly One of a Kind Piece. 
By the Way...
 These Paper Whimsy  
Sweethearts
are So Lovely..
They were Inspiration in themselves.
Have a Wonderful Weekend My Friends

    This is a beautiful piece..all the elements are perfection. It's interesting to wonder about the people who used/wore these things.. and they all found a new and beautiful home.
