Painted Pine Cone Tutorial

Hello sweet friends!
I have been a busy girl crafting and getting ready for the holidays!
Every year I have the kids gather pine cones for me.
This year I painted and glittered my pine cones pink and white to use in wreaths, bowl fillers and outside decor. 
I love finding inexpensive pretty ways to decorate!
Here is a step by step tutorial of how I painted my pine cones.

Painted Pine Cone Tutorial
Step 1 :
Collect pine cones and mix up your favorite shade of pink paint. 

 Step 2:
Spread out a piece of plastic to paint over. Put your plastic gloves on, this craft gets messy. Using a generous dip of paint begin painting the outside of pine cone.

 Step 3:
Next, gently paint into the tips.
 
 Step 4:
While pine cone is still wet sprinkle with fairy dust glitter. Lay on plastic to dry. Take it a step further and embellish with ribbons, pearls and pretty baubles.
Display in a pretty bowl for a pretty hint of holiday romance.
 Have fun painting pine cones!
 Thank you so very much for stopping by for a visit with me!
Hope you all are having a day full of Joy and holiday good tiding!

Heavens Kiss

 Every once in awhile we need to be kissed by an angel,
sent from heaven above
wrapped in a guardians love.
Lifted beyond all that may trouble our weary hearts,
to a place of wonder and peace.
Kissed by an angel,
sent from heaven above.

Crafting brings me Peace

Hello my lovely friends!
I have been praying this morning on what blog post to share.
It comes to mind that I have been blessed with a poetic creative spirit and outlet!
This is a little corner in my home that I store my crafting supplies.
I threw it all together for a photo shoot I did for Casa Romantica Shabby Chic Magazine.
Trust me when I tell you, when I create...it NEVER looks this good.
It's always a big mess with sparkles flying!!
I must tell you that "creating", "crafting" and "decorating" brings Peace to my spirit!
It heals the parts of me that are broken and gives me an outlet for my hopeful romantic spirit!
"The Lord blesses his people with Peace." Psalm 29:11
 I get ridiculously excited about vintage laces, trims, ribbons and florals!!!
I am beyond blessed and thankful for every day that I am able to create!
Happy creating my darlings!
Thank you for stopping by!

This week I am partying with

Ruffled tablecloth

Hello my darling friends! 
I was so excited today to receive the most over the moon gorgeous ruffled tablecloth and throw from Rhoada's Ruffles on Etsy!
Rhoada sews tablecloths, umbrella covers, place mats, pillowcases, throws and over the moon gorgeous Christmas tree skirts!
 I first fell in love with Rhoada's ruffles when she made me a couple of pillow shams from my favorite Rachel Ashwell fabric. 
This is one of the beautiful pillows in her Shoppe.
 Rhoada is not only talented, she is one of the sweetest ladies I know and completely humble.
She is so giving and sweet!
 Isn't is amazing how God blesses us with our gifts and as we create that love comes out in our work.
Thank you all for stopping by!
Sending you much love and hugs for a gorgeous weekend!!!
