Victorian Umbrella Adornment


 My sweet friend Patti has been at it again.

 She's the friend whose immense talent for creating beautiful objects never ceases to amaze me.


 She and a sister of mine, Barb, are two of the most talented women I know when it comes to crafting.

 Patti brought over this Victorian umbrella wall decoration filled to the brim with sumptuous pink and white roses and even pearls!


It was actually one of several fall birthday gifts she presented me with.  

I'm very sure it was made with lots of love. Her work always reflects that. 


 Hubs finally found time to hang it up in the dining room so now I can share it with you.

Isn't it the pizazz?

It's on a wall between my dollhouse and a Guatemalan hutch currently filled with an assortment of dolls from my collection.



We'll post on the dollies another day so stay tuned.

DO YOU LIKE VICTORIAN DECOR?

    Beautiful arrangement in an unusual basket. I do like some Victorian decor, altho as a whole, it is kind of dark for me.

    I bet the Victorian basket would look great with some real pine stuck in among the roses!
