LAUNDRY JAR AND 15 CUPS OF HANDMADE LAVENDER LAUNDRY SOAP






Just between us girls...I have always loved beautiful containers to store items in. Just don't like those plastic tubs and holders. Never did. I recently made this vintage gallon jar into a laundry soap container. I added the image of our darling girl doing her doll laundry. The top is painted a great jadeite green with the little girl image and a beautiful French green ribbon has been added to the jar with a tag with the same image you see on the jar. The images are clear coated to protect the art work.The jar hold 15 cups of handmade lavender laundry soap which is included with the jar. You can also buy the jar without the laundry soap. The jar is listed both ways on Ebay and you can find the jar on Etsy also. I hope to make more decorative storage jars soon. Keep in watching.

Thank you for stopping in. Please leave a comment because I love to hear from you.

OOOH GIRLS LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT CHERYL AND JAMES DACK AND THEIR CONFECTIONS FABRIC






Today I finally finished a doll quilt for my vintage doll bassinet. I am not showing you the completed project yet ....just the doll quilt. I ordered this "yummy" fabric from Cheryl and James Dack who have just recently created the most delightful website called CONFECTIONS FABRIC and you can find them at http://www.confectionsfabric.com/. This beautiful fabric with the roses which borders my doll quilt was found there and I can tell you it is just perfect for this project. I embroidered the sun bonnet girl with the market basket on a piece of vintage linen and the pink fabric with the beautiful roses from CONFECTIONS FABRIC became a wide border. The back of the quilt is

that wonderful shabby chic quilted roses we have all fallen in love with. If you need fabric Cheryl and James Dack are the people to see.

Please leave me a comment as I adore hearing from you.

Thank you so very much!!!
