Puppies and Glitter

Yep, that is my therapy!  

We're having lots of fun with our Katie, but boy can she be a handful!

 You would never guess it by that sweet little face, would you?

I know that it won't last forever, that she is just doing what puppies are supposed to do!

 She is really growing fast!  Tomorrow she will be 3 months old.

Unless she is sleeping or her daddy is around to watch her, it has been a bit difficult to get much done around the house!  If I am not watching her like a hawk, you just never know what mischief she will get into!

Well, you know how much I love playing with glitter.  It always manages to put a smile on my face!
So I thought I'd share with you one of my latest projects, that I made for my Etsy shop.

 I'd had this neat vintage bottle for awhile, just waiting to be transformed. So, I decoupaged one of my all time favorite French labels from the Graphics Fairy to the front.  Isn't it just the prettiest?  I love the colors.  It might be hard to tell from the photos, but I've covered the label with my favorite clear coarse glitter from Martha Stewart.  I think I should by stock in the stuff, as much as I go thru:)

 To the neck of the bottle I tied a very generous bow of wonderfully crinkly taupe seam binding.  I also added this neat skeleton key imprinted with the word "heart".
And for more sparkly fun, I added this pretty silk hydrangea blossom that I just had to glitter!

It was a fun project, I really do love how it turned out.
Puppies + glitter = good therapy!!

On a more solemn note, saying prayers for all of those who are hurting.  It has been such a difficult week for so many people in our country.
Praying that the Lord will bless the people in Boston and Texas who have been affected by loss and tragedy.
