Silver Sunday



Linking up with Beth of Gypsy Fish Studios today for Silver Sunday




this was really hard to get a photo of. it's a really old 3 paneled vanity mirror. i picked it up in Maine this summer. I like to use it as shows on my table. this last show it broke at the show, so i had my girlfriend, Jane, go and sew me a quick flower to cover up the biggest part of the break. i think it adds to its charm.

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




this is an old silver teapot that i like to house "long" items in (such as knitting needles, paint brushes, rulers, screw drivers, etc.)

and then another cool silver/pewter tea pot. this one holds some of my vintage scissors (also silver!)

  2. Hi Kecia,
    the mirror photo is outstanding. It is hard to realize, what object ist is. If you had not told us, I couldn't guess it. It looked miraculous. The mirror is a treaure. And your silver items look lovely, too.
    Greetings, Johanna

  3. Hi Kecia, I love what you have done with all the old silver pc's. I hope to someday have a nice craft room where I can do the same... It has such a warm glow to it, and adds so much character! The mirror is beautiful! Such a shame about the break! What a clever idea to cover it with a flower!! Have a wonderful Sunday!! ;p

  12. I'm late getting to all the Silver Sunday posts so am trying to catch up this evening before the next one rolls around. The silver filled with the brushes, is a nice touch, but I especially liked the one with scissors. I've a passion for scissors myself. Fun to see yours! Thanks for sharing. ~ sarah
