Vintage Spoons and Chandelier Crystals - More Addictions!!!

I often do my little confessions of my addictions

in this blog, as you know. Here are two

more...teeny tiny teaspoons

and

chandelier crystals.

I wish I could say this

was all I had of the above collections

but, it's only a sampler! I do have a purpose

though for these collections, I make

little creations with them.

This is my newest set of spoon ornaments.

The trick to these is to get to know the

guy in the hardware department at

Home Depot so when you go back to

get 3 more sets of drill bits after breaking

5 or more per spoon set, he will have them

all ready for you at the counter!

It's so worth the outcome though.

I would ask my husband to maybe show

me how to narrow down the

amount of drill bits I go through,

but I'm afraid he would wrap too

many words around the explaination

and I would start thinking about

laundry or unloading the dishwasher or something!

These are a fave of mine to make since I

am also addicted to vintage monograms!

Oh, and I'm also addicted to anything of the

vintage royal court. This goes for all movies of

the different court eras as well!

The next set of ornaments was created from images

I copied from a vintage set of playing cards I

found at an estate sale. The images are

stunning!!!

as you can see!

These ornaments can actually be left

up all year around, I have

several hanging from the chandeliers

in my bedroom and kitchen!
