CENTER PIECE OR NAPKIN RINGS??????????????:-)

HI

I guess most of us will know that these flowers made of stockings are used mostly as center pieces. When done with lot of colours we can make a good center piece. Most of the flowers can be replicated in stockings though we can never ever go anywhere near "THE CREATION".
Now to the discussion of flowers, i did make some flowers with long stalks. Not that i will intuitive enough to know i would be having a different use for it in the future, just that i had a taller vase:-). The other day while i was browsing the internet i found a video on you tube about this flower being used a s a napkin ring......... Well.....rest is what you see:-)





I tried to get the link for you all but am not able to find it anymore, dunno if it is removed by the author.will try to post the link as soon as i find it..that's a promise

After doing all this i thought i could do some and keep it as a gift so that its a pleasure to the one who receives it that it could be used as both.........is it not a great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FLORAL PHOTO FRAME

Its been a while that i have blogged here, got a little busy with things at home and i kept saying to myself and others that "I AM BUSY":-).This changed the other day..... wondering why??????????
Well well I had to buy supplies for my silk paintings and had been to my nearest pebeo dealer. He stacks almost all art supplies and while i was picking up the dyes i saw my gynecologist enter the shop. I was surprised. I wondered as to what a DOCTOR could possibly do in an art shop and told myself that she might have come down to buy something for her son.well! i just couldn't stop myself from blurting out"HI DR UMA! YOU PAINT AS WELL?" and the instant reply was "oh yeah! i do dabble". That made me think.....This person is a leading gynecologist and has a very busy schedule and if she can afford a little time for her hobbies, then............................
SO i immediately set to work and this is the creation inspired by doctor whose time management stunned me..

hmmmm i just am not ready to create a wooden photo frame so thought may be i will decorate one!!!!!!!!!:-)


The credit of taking the pictures goes to my daughter , she did it with lot of patience since it has a mirror, the first few pictures had her image as well but her persistence paid off:-)
