Sorting out my workroom when an idea came.


I have been trying to get some sort of order in my workroom as well as think about what I would do next. I came across these pages from an old book I have had for years. I have collected pictures paintings and postcards of women for as long as I can remember so I do have many of them. I stopped the sorting then and just looked for more pictures I liked ,I also pulled out boxes of lace and choose some I thought looked pretty and sat down to make the first page to a new journal.
I often look at other peoples journals and love the way people can arrange lace etc on their pages it all looks so free. I realised years ago I find it very hard to move away from straight lines but accept now that's the way I do it.This time I have used the actuall page but think I will print some of the others onto fabric.

  1. Great minds think alike! After seeing so many beautiful artworks lavished with lace I went a little crazy and bought loads of lace to try it out for myself. I haven't made anything yet but it's next on the list.

    Your journal cover is gorgeous! I can't wait to see what else you do, keep it up!

  2. Thank you for stopping by my blog with your comments about LOTR and Harry Potter.
    I like what you are doing with the vintage lady photos and the lace. It is amazing what people are coming up with in the way of combing vintage finds, putting them into collages. Very lovely indeed!
    Cheers!
