classic delft
Delft ... I'm not sure why but I've always loved it. To me, it's like wearing blue jeans and a t shirt - you really can't go wrong - it's classic... end of story.
Don't get me wrong... I love colour - all sorts of colour, but if there's 2 jugs in the room and one is blue and white, there's a good chance that's the one I'll be taking home.
Look at all these gorgeous pieces I found tonight ... Vintage Delft ...

The photos below are of the first ever (a bit shonky) mosaic pot I did.
I was dying to use my 'Canal Houses' tile purchased in Amsterdam years ago! I made the pot with 3 sides of tulips and the front featuring the Canal Houses ... sits pride of place outside out kitchen window so I can see it every day. Love it.

creative sunday
i've decided to add my creations on here as well as my usual ramblings ...
so, today i was feeling in a very collagey mood ... (is collagey a word???) well, that's how I was feeling anyway...
i'm calling it my *Inspiration Tag* ... basically 3 cards collaged both sides on a ring so you can flip them over depending on what you want to look at and be inspired by.
it was fun.
