My Sewing box...

All day long I have been busy in my studio.

Tidy up time came together as a lovely exercise of eye catching little gems....Silks,ric-rac,ribbons,antique lace, buttons, pearls and thread all in pinks, aqua and ivory.

I am so happy when I design and make with beautiful things.It gave me so much pleasure putting this little story board  together.

I hope you enjoy it too!

Shoes to compliment!

I have really enjoyed decorating these shoes to go with my Sarah Gown. They have a small court heel which complements this dress beautifully as worn in the Jane Austin Era.

In my studio I have a mass of wonderful boxes all crammed full of little gems to decorate my shoes. From flowers,shells and ribbons to the tiniest little seed pearls. I have collected things for years and put them away knowing that one day they will be used!I love decorating and making things look beautiful and I get hours of satisfaction from these fiddly tasks!
