A surprise for my ladies!!

Firstly thank you Cindy! How generous artist we have here! without saying anything .. She presented my  new etsy shop on his blog! I'm speechless address your comments ladies! Thank you from my heart!


Now a bit of news!

Normally we use to  restore the old objects into new parts ..  My passion (well ,one of my many passions ...) is to alter the new into the old .. although very old.
My work this afternoon was to age  2 frames of brass, too gold, too shiny for my taste ..

and voila !! cameos in baroque style;

I put  tin solder, crystals, and time!









Do you see this one ?? not te little blue, nononooo the orange one?? it is the larger of the two, measuring 2 inches, and to celebrate my shop and my first sale, well ... it is "give away". yepaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!



Go ladies! you enter at the bottom to this  post,  your name, and a some words in french (héhéhéhé)  you can also speak about  it on your blogs .. and we will know the  winner  Tuesday.

*No obligation to become a follower of this blog is really to share something with you, having 20,000 folowers it's nothing to me if they do not like my work .. or do not  really want  to follow me  .. I do not force people each one is free! *
