Mending the heart

For Christmas, as one of my gifts, i commissioned JoAnna Pierotti to make me one of her stunning angels. she usually adds a word to her dolls, which in effect, gives them life. So i asked her to give my angel the words "mending the heart" to signify my journey through grief. i just think she is so beautiful. i couldn't wait to unwrap her on Christmas morning!



------------------------------------------------------------------

here is where my angel is hanging. over my bed i had hung a sheer coverlet that i strategically draped to be flouncy. in the center i added some faux wisteria flowers. so she is hanging in the center of the coverlet which overlooks my bed. so when i am laying in bed, she is right there watching over me.



You can find more of JoAnna's art in her etsy shoppe.

I still have a few more seats left in my 2 workshops coming up next weekend. take a peek and email me if you are interested (keeshagirl4@aol.com)

  4. Such a safe place for the lovely angel to be - i'm even comforted with the effervescence and honor she adds to your nest; always surrounding you with light and love - a perennial reminder of the private you, and the you that you share with all of us, your capabilites of reaching out, sharing, and also your great talent - she's capable of talking to you also - i know she has wonderful stories to tell, and quiet reminders and advice! the thing that describes "listen" and "believe" to the fullest extent! i love you - mom
