Embellished Vintage Glass Shakers & Beautiful Giveaway I Won

Good Tuesday morning everyone!! The sun is shining today here in Michigan, after the cloudy and in some areas, snowy day yesterday. Most of the snow fell in the southern part of the state, from just north of Grand Rapids to the south. Here in Grant we did see a few flakes fall, but nothing that stuck...thank goodness!! The weather is saying that we could see a snow/rain mix tomorrow...ugghh!! It's spring for goodness sakes; it's suppose to be sunny and warm. Eventually winter will get the hint and finally go away, lol :)

Yesterday I embellished some vintage glass shakers with new and vintage millinery roses and ribbon trims, and will be listing them soon on both Ebay and Etsy. Each has their silver tops painted a pretty pink ~ these would be sweet to give as a gift for Mother's Day, Birthdays, Anniversary, or simply "just because".



A while back I entered a Giveaway at Brenda's blog,COZY LITTLE HOUSE, which was a chance to win this gorgeous handmade bag by Jana, whose blog is COLLECTED TREASURES for the HOME, HEART and SOUL, and I was the lucky winner!! This bag is 2DIE4!! It is created with lots of gorgeous vintage laces and a huge vintage millinery rose ~ I've chosen to display it on my Manny...she's stylin' now ladies :) Thank you Brenda for hosting this wonderful and generous giveaway, and Thank you Jana, for creating such a beautiful, gorgeous bag... I LOVE IT!!!







Thanks so much for your visit, and as always, I LOVE reading each and every comment that you all leave for me :) I have something very exciting that is in the works right now, but I cannot yet tell you about it...soon though :) It is REALLY, REALLY, exciting!!!
