Today, I'd like to share with you some embellishments that I created to enhance your decorative accessories. These little accents can be used on lampshades, rose bowls, votive holders, dinner napkins, decorative bath towels, wreath ribbons, window treatments, or anywhere you'd like to add a little extra flair. The most wonderful thing is that the embellishments are versatile. Since they are not permanently attached, they can be removed at any time, and reused on other items, giving you a fresh look each time!
I have crosses...
I took some of these to a home show; and to my surprise, they sold out completely! They not only make excellent accents for your own home, but they make great gifts, as well.
I am enjoying the creative process these days; and I will be stocking new items in my Etsy shop, along the way.
Thanks so much for your visit and have a great day!!
Verse of the Day:
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.Colossians 3:23-24

Shenita, those items are very pretty. I am happy for you that all your pretty creations sold out. That must have been a great feeling knowing others enjoy your embellished decorative items! Good luck with your etsy shop.
ReplyDeleteYou are so talented. I am not surprised they were sold out. Happy to see you getting back to doing something you love so much =)
ReplyDeleteNo wonder! They are gorgeous! XO, Clydia threemangoseeds.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteWow, those are great! I just visited your Etsy store! You have some great products for sale :-) I have a turkey platter just like the one you found. I've owned it since about 1979 so it could go back that far!
ReplyDeleteI like decorating with crosses and crowns. They're so pretty especially when embellished with something sparkly or glowing (like a candle). Your designs look very nice. That's wonderful that you're selling out so fast.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful items, Shenita...so many different looks to the lampshade...all wonderful. Have a great weekend with your family!
ReplyDeleteHi Shenita, I just found your beautiful blog and Etsy shoppe! I just placed my order!! I look forward to reading your blog and getting to know you. xoxo Jeanette
ReplyDeleteHi Shenita- My name is Stacey, I am a friend of Donna. I feel like I know you because we talk about you at work all the time! I have a very random question- have you ever used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint? It gives a French country look- I am thinking of refinishing my kitchen cabinets myself but I dont know anyone who has used it before. When I saw some of the pieces on Pintrest it reminded me of your style. My email is thatrubyfamily@gmail.com Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Shenita, I see why all your home embellishments sold out at the show, they're gorgeous.! Love the header too. You are very creative.

These are adorable, Shenita! I can see why they all sold out at your party!
ReplyDeleteHi Shenita! I saw when u listed these on Etsy and they got my mind spinning! I have more if a transitional style mixed with traditional, but I think I've found several uses! Is it possible to get a matching pair? I'll convo you on Etsy. Joyfully, Nicole
ReplyDeleteThey are all s beautiful but my fab is the candle with the cross embellishment. Thats just Perfect to my eyes. I agree with all your other posters. You have such a creative talent. So glad to hear you are getting back to it.
ReplyDeleteShenita, all your creations are wonderful, and it's clear to see how talented you are. I love your lamp with the beaded trim. Each look is nice, but the one with the matching red cross is my favorite. I'm sure you'll have no problem selling them. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Shennita, I love your crosses, so elegant all of them. The crown is great too. Thank you for your always lovely and kind visit. Have a nice weekend.

Fantastic! You will probably sell out a few more times, they are stunning.
ReplyDeleteHey Shennita it's been a long time since I've had time to comment. You've got some great ideas. What "home show" did you go to?

ReplyDeleteThe cross on the candle is a nice idea.
ReplyDeleteShenita, I have not been to New Orleans since the hurricane! I'd love to go sit on the patio at Broussard's on Conti Street. Our favorite restuarant in N.O. by far. Thanks for reminding me that it is time to go back. :)
