An award and some heart

Ahhh, finally I got some more valentine hearts finished and in my etsy shop. I am having so much fun digging through my vintage jewelry, ribbons and fabrics, and since my husband gave me a new glass cutter for Christmas I decided to add some personal touches with a few little charms I made. This pink rosey heart is my current fave, but since I hate to repeat myself I have a few other styles and colors too and I'm still working on more. Here is another I love...I call it True Love and it reminds me of pillow covers my grandmother had in her farmhouse. Beautiful rosebud ticking, I'm glad they still make it. Check out the rest at etsy.

A big thank you to Mary at the Little Red House for giving me the Daily Dose award:>) Mary is one of my own Daily stops and I always love the things she writes about! We share an obsession with dishes and so many other things! Thank you Mary, I am honored that you thought of me. I am going to pass this along to Tracey at Notes from a Cottage Industry who also provides one of my daily doses of creative inspiration. If you have never been there go check her out, she is a genius with paint and old furniture! Once again, I am feeling the love from blog land. Thanks for the sweet comments and the orders. You can't know what it means:>)

Kathy, the hearts are sooo pretty. I love the charms and jewelry accents:) I have some rose ticking fabric similar to yours. I have been saving it for awhile now, just waiting on it to speak to me and tell me what it would like to become....so far, it's not talking:)

Hi, I'm not sure that I let you know I ordered 2 hearts from you off your shop site. I sent payment yesterday thru PayPal. I can hardly wait to get them.
Thanks and hugs, bj
