HOUSES OF LOVE
Taking a cue from Jeremiah's Mom, I replaced the French knots on the wreath with beads (A huge shout out to Katie for that pretty snowman post you did, what a great idea!:) -- See, that's what bloghopping can get you, tips from pros! I feel these beads really added more Christmas pizzazz on this piece.
The final touch of yellow flowers and stars on the black background somehow gives it a blinking multi-colored Christmas lights effect.
This is how my ORT jar looked like after it was all done. I have another story about it, but I'll reserve it for my next post.
Now, the question is: what is that thing beside the word LOVE? Is that ice cream? a tub of popcorn? or a basket (of what)? I'm leaning towards food, hah!
Thanks for visiting. Happy Stitching!
That is BEAUTIFUL! I love this design!!! You did an amazing job!
ReplyDeleteI think maybe it's popcorn? Or, with Jeremiah Junction, maybe a Christmas-y beehive?
Lol yep I think it's popcorn! Congrats on a great finish!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! It's an amazing finish. I love all the bright colors. Hmm, I've always thought that was popcorn.
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant! So bright and colourful! you've done a great job with it, it's LOVEly :)) I think its an ice cream next to LOVE :) it's definitely food LOL and I must be crazy cause I love French knots haha :))
ReplyDeleteOh so beautiful, your finish. This piece has really lovely motifs and colours. Wonderful. The little thing next to the word Love? Maybe a cactus? But that would be a strange thing next to Love, wouldn't it? Lol.
ReplyDeleteOooh Congrats!!!! Looks amazing :)
ReplyDeleteCould it be a basket full of LovE?! You're right, not sure what it's supposed to look like :D
Wohoo Congrats!!! Aw thanks for the shout out. It wasn't my idea though. I've noticed a lot of other people do the same thing. I do think the beads look fantastic! Enjoy your happy dance.
ReplyDeleteOh wow what a beautiful finish!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! What a beautiful finish. It's so bright and cheerful!
ReplyDeleteAnother vote for popcorn...
Yes, see I knew as I progressed into the future-past I would find a finish! It looks so pretty! :D I also vote for popcorn because of that little white thing to the top left of it. Plus popcorn comes in those fun striped buckets!
