Miss Rita let Lisa teach her class out of her studio there. It was a hot day but we sure enjoyed it this class and it was very relaxing and fun.

Miss Rita's Studio of imagination.

Bella was there to make a presence while she watched us create our Bling Baby's.

We had so much fun creating our bling babies. My Mom Lori took hers to a totally different level of bling. Lisa was quite amazed at how creative she was. I knew after the many years of my mom making stuff and selling it at boutiques when i was little. Working in different antique stores over the years. Back to the days when she worked at DnJ Dolls n Bears in Huntington Beach.The countless displays she has created in our stores. She always trys to take our display one level different at the shows we do. She is a natural at creating an amazing doll. She was definitely meant to create. To this i hope it gave her enough inspiration to start creating. She is a very talented woman and very creative. I am blessed to get that gene from her. Here is her Boudoir Bling Doll

Everything is dripping with diamonds antique jewels, feathers, lace and tassels.

Waking Up To Roses

Oh what a beautiful and hot morning it is as we are sipping on our coffee on the porch looking out on the beautiful rose garden out front. We decided to cut some of the fresh roses for the kitchen and display them in some of the victorian china my mom has collected over the years. I just love the way roses look in old rose china it is so romantic and charming.

Dont you just love the way they look in these victorian water pitchers? The green soldered bottle vase was given to us as a gift from our good feathered friend Rita

I hung black victorian hooks on each side of my window for the two hanging vases.

We just love roses so much and have been collecting Christie Repasy paintings for years. But dont they look so dreamy next to the rose vases.
