It glows :)

Liberty of London have released their new Art Prints range recently. You could never, not ever accuse them of being boring! Or predictable!

One of the new fabrics is titled Dr Tulloch and to say that I am madly in love with it is an understatement!

The description from the Liberty website is as follows.
"
This digital print was created from a watercolour painting of a chaotic bookcase in the writing room tucked away in the gardens of Glencot House in Somerset. The books were thrown together as if in a textured pile creating an abstract pattern.
"


I have used the fabric in the blue and red colour ways in my Danish style mahogany wooden brooches, I hope that you like them as much as I do! They have a real 'glow' about them and a shimmer with the gold tones, just beautiful.


Isn't it pretty? Almost opalescent!

And I've used the red in some lovely large hair ties. Pretty! 


Enjoy the rest of your week! XX

Two Song Tuesday

Ok I originally wanted to call this post 'I like country AND western' but I didn't want to turn off any potential readers. Country and Western can be seen as dirty words, but not to me, oh no, and not to my friends. We like our men in cowboy shirts, we wear cowboy boots, we love Lucinda Williams and Patsy Cline,  Wilco and Johnny Cash and of course, of COURSE ...


Dolly.

To celebrate Dolly's Australian Tour (to which I have a ticket, Yee-HAW!) I'm getting into the right mood, and have made up a small selection of C&W style hair ties and brooches. They will make it onto the Etsy store later today, and the fabric is from Heather Ross's latest gorgeous collection, Far Far Away 3, Playing with Horses.




Horse Ties are $5 or 3 for $12
Brooches are $7
