The thought, care and love behind it shine in every detail - the wonderful stamped burlap at the centre, the fabulous scraps of muslin on the vines, and those amazing clusters of embellishments in the corners. The houses look wonderful, and I love the circular "windows" of newspaper text - just brilliant.<br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing this stunning piece of artwork with us at Our Creative Corner.<br />Alison xxWords and Pictureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05672524847577136244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988193000034637284.post-29732133631562788552014-02-09T13:46:12.591-05:002014-02-09T13:46:12.591-05:00Truly wonderful post and creation Mary Elizabeth. ...Truly wonderful post and creation Mary Elizabeth. I love how personal it is to you. It really does evoke an era long ago when times were tough but that sure didn't stop anyone having treasures and beauty. It's a gorgeous make. I'm slightly upset tho cause I spent a long time last friday trying to achieve that colour scheme, without success. You've made it look terrific here. Hope this week is a good one for you.

Your beautiful frame with the burlap, buttons and houses really has this feel of treasured goods (using even the tiniest scraps of string or any things other people might throw away without looking at them twice). I love your buttons and that soda cap - but my favourite is the lovely handstitched doily that works as a frame for the burlap piece! This does sooo remind me of my son's great grandmothers - whom I had the luck to know and who both had these in their homes. Alongside with other treasures (like the old sewing chest for example)... I always enjoyed visiting and travelling back in time. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing this lovely piece and your beautiful story! <br /><br />Hugs,<br />Claudia xClaudia N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03577948083701178316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988193000034637284.post-76409452499971980312014-02-09T03:51:53.759-05:002014-02-09T03:51:53.759-05:00You have no idea how pleased I am to hear you were...You have no idea how pleased I am to hear you were inspired by this colour scheme theme Mary Elizabeth, and I have to say you have done a magnificent job here. It totally screams that primitive genre, with the stamped burlap, the distressed wood and of course all those delightful trims. This surely must have pride of place in your home and I'm so incredibly thrilled you have taken the time to enter our challenge at Our Creative Corner.
