| This wardrobe had light blue painted trim.I trimmed over the blue with Poetry Green.I painted green vines and decoupaged some pink roses.Sorry,couldn't get the 'computer camera' any closer. |
 |
 |
| I made this topiary and put it in my old copper teakettle.I got a round styrofoam ball,glued green moss(dried,storebought) around it,cut off some silk roses,stuck them in the ball.I put a small dowel in the ball and glued a square piece of styrofoam in the bottom of the kettle,stuck the dowel in that.I stuffed some moss in the top of the kettle. |

| You can cover pillows with doileys and sew them right over top. |
 |
| I first stamped the rose and leaves,then shaded roses,added tendrils and white dots.This lampshade was dark green,so I painted and stenciled it to 'match' the chair. |
