Filling the Shelves~

It seems I have been filling the shelves of my shoppe for Christmas since last July. Yes, it really starts that early. The last few weeks are in full motion and most of my hand painted treasures are enjoying new homes for the holidays.

Here are a few more whites just completed and I hope they give you some ideas for creating too.


Recently I found these wonderful spoon racks. The design is different from those I usually find and the good part, I found 3. Here are two creations one with my cottage roses and the other with simply just a french label shared from The Graphics Fairy.




The ice skates are back and this pair is gorgeous in white with cottage roses and glitter.
Cottage boxes ready to decorate for a unique gift package.
Carved wood Trees glittered for wintertime~
Lastly a little transitional piece I hand painted called Hydrangea Lace. A soft wintertime piece that will make way to spring. I love this different style vintage tray with the additional leaves and flower bud off to one side. My friend Ann from Ann's finds, found this tray as part of a 3 piece set in 3 sizes too. Loved creating with it.
Thank you for stopping by as I join Timewashed for Blissful Whites Wednesday. It's back to the fun in my studio. Blessings, Celestina Marie

Wow, you really did start early! Those ice skates are gorgeous! And so are your spoon holders! Whenever I come across them while out treasure hunting, I'm tempted to pick them up. But I never know what to do with them! Thanks for the great inspirations:)

Those spoon racks had gorgeous bones and your painting is wonderful. Oh, I skipped Christmas projects this year for wedding projects 11 days!!

I would use those spoon racks to hold my laces and trims. My creative mind is slowly kicking into gear again. I've been working old scraps and almost to the end. Once done, onward to my pretties!! I love my skates I got from you last year and i'm getting reading to pull out my tree and ornies. I shall be stopping by for ornies soon enough. Hugs. T

Hi dear Celeste!
That plate!!!! Oooooooh my is that beautiful! You are amazing when that brush touches your hand. Wow! I would love to own that tray. My heart is beating so fast since I saw it! All I can do is sit here drooling LOL. I love those spoon racks too. They could maybe also be used for crochet hooks lol. Maybe with a little round silicon or paper slider on the hook and then they will stay hanging. Really pretty! I often have looked in your shop on Etsy but noticed you don't ship to Europe. Wish I lived closer, sigh........... Anyway, viewing all your pretty artwork is making me so happy as well :)
Big hugs
