A Collection of Love Tokens.............
Will be available this month on eBay, and the TDIPT Mercantile on the 15th of this month! The fabric covered mache keepsake box will be on the Mercantile~ with its bubble covered vignette in the lid~ Ohh I love making these. A reproduction of an 1830 fashion plate, along with vintage flowers & ribbon is arranged permanently in the lid. See the hat in the box behind the lid???? It is a reproduction c1835 bonnet~ sized perfect for dolly~ all hand stitched together of fabric covered board~ it goes along with the keepsake box~ woohoo!
I have made just a couple special shadow box Valentines~ This one here is accented with the teensy guard feathers from a peacock quill around the engraving, with loops of precious hair~ these have come from one of our horses, 'Apple'................SO beautiful! I think I will list one of these on eBay later on tonight.....
Ohhhhhhhh there will be some of my glass glittered 'candy heartes'.....to use for ornaments or bowl fillers...... and some special lil Valentine's Day Cupids I'm SO in love with! They are hand sculpted mache, with lil wire & tinsel Halos....nestled up in a mica covered 'cloud'....each has a banner that dangles so daintily, and each are different~ all one of a kind pretties I hope you will enjoy!

I really like the "new" look. The different choices for archives are GREAT! Now I can look at all your dollies, or your gorgeous museum pieces or whatever I feel like drooling over! Super great change, Honey.

Love these designs, Rachel. I still have the beautiful start ornament from the ornie exchange. That heart with Angel reminds me so much of it.
