I have been a bit slow to post my post-Christmas mantelpiece. I decided to go with fresh, clean colours.
A very quirky raku-fired ceramic bird by Valerie Willy. Hasn't she got character?
A beautiful hand-printed paper dress by my talented friend, Leonie Oakes, flanked by some cute white bits and pieces.
A close-up of my gorgeous dress :)
A pretty Tord Boontje vase with a couple of candles, both too pretty to burn. The jar is a Voluspa candle and the other is from Vintage by Lou Lou and smells divine with its French Pear fragrance.
I am still working on some art for over the mantel. I have printed a couple of images which I'll show you soon.

ReplyDeleteOh, squeal, Sarah! That dress is heavenly. I've had my eye on a similar one for ages - if only Planet Baby's budget would stretch that far. Sigh. Thanks for sharing your prettiness. J x
