**UPDATED **
In anticipation of the Fall season ahead, although it is certainly had to imagine that in the warmer areas, we have begun to think of muted, earthy palettes and soulful, faded tints.
These are our August Dreams...
We begin with a spectacular vintage-floral linen, and surround it with ivory canvas, French ephemera, sparkly beads, handmade tulle-and-crystal ruffle, .... !
Almost one full yard of this exquisite fabric, because it is beautiful and we wanted you to have as much as possible!
Seriously?! This is gorgeous, if we do say so ourselves... A 7" multi-layer tulle ruffle with an under layer of taupe roses, fastened onto a yard of seam binding and finished with a strand of crystal chain.
Yes. We die.
7 Large, Faceted Mercury Glass Beads
2 Sequin Covered Ball Trims
9 Handmade Crochet and Mirror Buttons ~ 5 Taupe and 4 Vintage Pink
9 Vintage Glass Bead Drops
18" 8mm Crystal Chain. This is a very large size ~ so pretty, with lots of sparkle!
18" Smoky Topaz Bi-Cone Rosary Chain
19" Antique Bronze Jewelry Chain
(Do you feel a jewelry project coming on? Me, too!.)
1 Sheet Vintage French Ledger Paper ~ This is a heavyweight paper stock. (Think manilla folder.) We brought these back from France this summer, and each one is on the same ledger page, with unique writing.
2 Truly Beautiful Sequin & Bead Appliques
Stitched on ivory tulle, and rendered in coppery, gold-y, silvery threads and beads. Swoon.
1 Vial Silver German Glass Glitter. Fine grit. 1.25 ounces.
