Well, I'm confident that you'll get the general idea, and rejoice with me.
Further to my last entry about these beaded wires,we returned to N.S.W.via a beautiful route with magnificent views of coast and mountains, back to the op shop where I found the stash last week. I was optimistic that there would be more wires for sale. My luck was in! Not only were there more available for purchase, BUT there was a fifty per cent sale on all bric a brac! OOOH was I happy! Yes. I bought some more and I have added them to my display.
I also returned to the most attractive and well stocked kitchen shop, where last week I purchased two trinket boxes, disguised as confectionery and bought another to add to my tea trolly of tea things. Check this out and have a drool!
In case you are wondering, I became interested in faux food a couple of years ago, when I saw a fabric tea pot and knitted and crocheted cakes in a magazine. I was fascinated and hooked! I had to make some of my own.
One thing led to another, that necessitated a tiered cake plate on which to place them and a tea trolley on which to appropriately display, my "tea things". The collection includes 'delights' made in other mediums, selected for their authenticity - check out the chocolate biscuits on the bottom shelf! I purchased them at a craft extravaganza and while walking to the check out, so real did they appear to people that several asked could they have one for morning tea!
Something interesting that I have learned about myself, why make one when you can make several...different colours, materials...MMMmmmm
Have a giggle and remember things aren't always what they seem!
Happy Weekend
