Look what is blooming!

I am on a total flower kick right now. Last night wasn't as productive as the night before, though I did get some more reading about Dewey the Library Cat done, but I revisited the flower making. First was more of the organza type, only this time in rust and champagne tones.


I really love these, have I mentioned that? I need more practice, there is actually a fine art to the melting process. I also need to find more old necklaces with beads that are strung. I went to some estate/garage sales this morning in hopes of finding some, but another girl got to those goodie bags before me and bought all of them. :(

My second set of flowers are torn paper flowers. I like how grungy they are and are completely different from the organza blooms. I pulled out some scraps and went to town.

I have some more flower ideas that I would like to try. Maybe tonight. Then again, maybe not. We shall see.
