Home is Where the Heart is....







               So true and has more meaning once a loved one is away...sigh.   I think my husband is feeling this sweet expression of late.   I have not created a whole heck of a lot except for a few design team projects.  I had bought three of these hearts off a website and really enjoy making each one unique and different.   This one I actually painted a "custom" color...three different colors to get the color I had in my mind.  Not sure how it looks on your  moniter but it is a lovely shade of aqua green in real life.  I dug into my goodies and used up some old trims and made a linen blossom with a bit of vintage hankie.  Added some fun archectural resin pieces....I LOVE this window.  It symbolizes home to me...and of course a button here...a bow there...and so forth till it felt right to me.  I added just a smidgeon of glitter to the front of it for a bit of sugary glimmer.   Hope you enjoy it!  hugs, cherry

  6. I certainly love this! I love heart designs, so this speaks to me. Love the shabby look to it and, of course, the touch of glitter. Everything is better with glitter!
