Not finished yet....


My Teabag Rose Bouquets.

I've been playing with my teabag roses lately.
(tutorial on sidebar)

My friend Dawn, at The Feathered Nest,
saw them and said how cute they would be in a baby shoe.
(If you have never been over to Dawn's blog you should go visit.
She always has lots of lovelies to share.)

Well you k now I loved that idea and could not wait to try it.

So ......

I made up some more bouquets.....

and tucked them....

into the only baby shoe I had at home.

It is my husbands, from when he was a baby. (DUH.)
He sure was not wearing them yesterday!!. =)

So, for now they are just sitting there, unfinished.
I do not want to glue things onto it.
The shoes are precious just the way they are.

So look out little shoes at the shop.
Here I come, and I'll have some done to show all of you soon.

Boy, do I have enough shoes to do nests, pin cushions, and, mini bouquets?
We'll see.

Blessings and thanks for doming by.

    What a sweet use of a baby shoe. Now tell me what to do with mine that my mom had bronzed!

    Hi Barbara - stopping by to comment about your garage sailing comment over at Between Naps on the Porch -

    Spent almost 2 hours with a group of old timers at the one-and-only yard sale I went to today. Had fun and didn't need to go to any others!

    See ya Sat.
