Decoupage and New Treasures


Hello darlings,

We hope you had a lovely weekend.  Our weekend was great, we had such gorgeous weather... and we enjoyed every bit of it.  I want to share with you two craft projects that I did this past weekend.  My very first decoupage candle. 
                                         (Click photos to enlarge)
I LOVE it!

This is the rose I used to decorated
the candle.   

I had so much fun creating this candle, that
I couldn't stop there...  I also made a decoupage
soap.

This is the original look...
An English Lavender soap.

Now I will show you my new finds...
I love pretty boxes...

with pink roses

I'm always hunting for anything with
pink roses

We also found a big candle holder that matches perfectly
with our mantel and furniture.

A tiny porcelain box


A miniature plate of The Queen Mother
Queen Elizabeth

Displayed beautifully in company of more
blue pieces.


A lovely small vase and ...

a small bowl with pretty pink roses

By the way our knock-out roses are blooming beautifully!
How about your roses?  Do you still have them?


A lovely bouquet for you!

We found this mini candle holder
for just one dollar.

I added some crystals and candles to take
this picture, but I'll be adding a few more crystals
later on.

It's looking so pretty!
Don't you think?

I have more treasures, but this post is
 getting too long so this is it. 
Keep hunting for treasures darlings!

With lots of love,

I am joining

and

Thank you for hosting!

  3. Dearest Wendy,

    Glad for you as you really had something to show here. The candle and soap decoupage is lovely and so are some other treasures found by you. I'm very impressed by your perfect Knockout roses. Yes, last week Sunday I had also three roses from our garden. After all the heat, the few that have survived were bouncing back. It feels good to get such a reward this late in the year.
    Enjoy all your pretty things and roses.
    Love to you,

    Mariette

  9. How beautiful! I love the candle and your roses are gorgeous, Wendy!

    I didn't know soaps could be decoupaged! Does the Modge Podge just come off when someone uses the soap?

    Either way, I like the idea!
