A Promise

I made a promise to myself

that the first order of business

today would be blogging.

I am keeping that

promise!

We have been doing a lot of this

since arriving at our condo in

Miramar Beach.

Can you blame us?

I do have some things to share,

so let's start today with the

below.....

Can you tell what this is? 

Many of you will recognize that it is

Pattern Tissue Paper 

from a vintage pattern.

 This is what it has been turned into...

A delicious looking very large flower!

The center is made out of

shredded sheet music...

My brain will not bring up the

correct word for what the center part

of the flower is really called.

Guess I should have googled it.

Here it is on my wall

framed with

a beautiful

vintage frame

painted

and 

distressed

with 

Annie Sloan

Old White

Chalk Paint.

Of course, it doesn't

look

quite like

this.

I almost wish 

it did!

I played with my

IPhone Snapseed AP

again.

Hope you have a  very promising day!
