Empty

The pain of her shattered heart has not been healed by time.

The ache remains and she is empty now.

Locked away in her world of sadness.

 Tormented by her memories.

"Nothing is forever"

"Always is a lie"

"I can only love you til the day I die"

A wooden box of feelings.

A collage of repurposed antiques.

Thanks for looking!

Let me know what you think.

I appreciate your comments.

Sunshine & Children

Do you remember the 4th Of July as a child?

Picnics and bare feet.

Twirling in a summer dress.

Eating cupcakes with sugary frosting.

And the anticipation of sparklers and fireworks.

Hiking and exploring.

Fun food and too much soda pop.

And Miss Kitty.

I hope the sun was shining on your picnic today.

Happy 4th Of July!

Not Forgotten

Remembering a day long ago.

Playing on the beach while mom sat nearby.

Small bits of lace and buttons from her sundress and yours.

Some torn linen from the tablecloth where you had your picnic together.

Freshwater pearls from the shop on the boardwalk.

Time goes by so quickly.

It seems like only yesterday.

Hand stitched bits of antique linen and lace.

Antique and vintage buttons.

Freshwater pearls.

A vintage watch case altered to hold a little girls picture and a free moving pearl.

Remembering special moments.

They are Not Forgotten.

This one of a kind art wear necklace will be available for sale in my Etsy shop.

Thanks for stopping by.

Please take a minute to say hi while you're here.

Happy 4th of July weekend to you all.
