First of all… I want to thank all of you who participated in the “Creations Under Glass” segment! What wonderful displays for our eyes to behold! However, there were several friends that I had asked to participate, that for one reason or another, where not able to do so at the time.

Recently, I’ve had the pleasure of seeing some of their finished creations, so I decided to have a “part 2″ to the segment. How could I resist with such sumptuous pretties to enjoy!


In case you missed it, here is part one of this segment:
Creations Under Glass – Creative Displays to Fuel The Imagination

Carol

Just look at the beautiful creations that Carol has put together for us to enjoy… all the way from Germany!

And… if you love her work here, you’re going to love her blog BoxwoodCottage, where she shares all kinds of ideas about crafting, gardening, and decorating!

Be sure to click on the pictures & leave some “luv” in her Flickr comments!

Eunice

You’ll love her Etsy shop with all of her pretty little things!

Jo

Have a great time visiting Jo’s blog Old Flowers For Me, and her Flickr pictures as well!

I love how Jo uses a piece of an old wedding veil along with the little paper flowers, a bird’s nest, and some other odds & ends to make this beautiful display!

Cammy

Visit Cammy at Freckled Farm! You’ll find lots to take in & be inspired by!

** My next big segment will be “Creative Spaces – Where Creativity Rules”, in which we will share the special spaces that allow your creativity to shine! We want to highlight the ways you organize, how you decorate your creative space, beautiful shelves, etc.

Please feel free to send in your pictures, flickr links, and blog address if you would like to participate.

If you would like to be a part – please feel free to contact me!

Oh Pearl thank you so much for including me in this beautiful post, I’m so glad that you did a segment 2 because I was so sad to miss the first one! I also love Andrea’s chocolate bowl with the beautiful robin eggs, Eunices cute bird nest, as well as Jo’s and Cammy’s nests and all the whimsical creations of Debra! Carol xox

Something about the onset of Spring just makes us all want to nest… so I thought I’d share some ideas to help us create some beautiful ones ;)

Beautiful.
I love the background (toile design) of your blog. Toile’s are my absolute favourite textile design – recently I did a toile range of fabrics for a lady (Im a textile designer) and it was so much fun.
I really enjoyed reading your blog and hope to come back and read again.
If you have some time it would be great if you could pop into my blog and if you wish, leave feedback.

Wendren ~ Thank you for the kind words about my blog design. The toile background was my first try at creating ;)
