Lost n' found ~

Another sunset to share with you....

we've been having so many gorgeous evenings lately!!!

So what was lost then found???

My pressed flowers!!!

We've lived here almost a year now (the end of Sept.)

and I stashed it away and haven't been able to find it this whole time ~

Finally, today I ran across it!!

Look at how teeny this fern is...I placed a pin beside it to give you an idea of it's size.

These are African violet blooms....I know I've shown you these before ~

 Here's a variety of flowers, nothing fancy ~

I love the texture of these....

I picked a hydrangea bloom and wanted to see if I could press pieces of it...

The color is fading on these but I love them so ~

Do you know what this is? I found it growing in our flower bed!

It's a little meaty to press but I have to try ~

My wonderful and fabulous flower press...a big ol' yellow pages book!

Have you heard of this store?

Our son Brad just loves it and he found me a few treasures here this past weekend ~

I guess their Spring items are on clearance and he bought me this set of three nests!!!

They are pine needles held together with something...I just love them ~

And what am I doing in the studio right now?

I've had a few commission jobs to work on

and one is a sweet little charm

for a friend ~

I love using these microscope slides but they are very tricky to cut smaller...

The charm holds an old photograph of Pam's father ~

she lost him several years ago but wanted to have charm

to wear in memory of him...

I'm a little rusty with the soldering but it came out pretty good!

It's only 1" x 1", teeny, right? :)

I need to get these projects completed (finishing my flea bag is next!)

so I can get the studio cleaned up for

Where Blogger's Create this Friday!!!!

I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday precious friends ~

hugs and love,

Dawn
