I could use these bottles for so many things, but today I’ll share my first attempt at using broken bottles as mosaic tiles to give an old mirror a makeover.
A quick rundown of what I did: found a mirror hanging around the house, scored it, got out my little container of adhesive grout, broke some wine bottles & stuck them all together & viola mosaic mirror.
Oh, how I long to be a goddess… to be worshiped & anointed with oils & adorned with jewels, to do as I please when I please. To be free of all these earthly ways that hold down my spirit & force me to toil with tasks.
Ahh, to dream… I suppose it’s time to make dinner.
I adore cob homes & live for the day I find myself living the life of a fairy in my little home that looks like a drawing of some fantasy woodland harem in hobbit territory. It would have colorful glass & crystals embedded all throughout & when the sun shine hit just right, it would make one gasp with amazement. Lush gardens with edibles & flowers would surround & live atop the roof…. I could go on & on…dreaming.
I borrowed these pictures from a wonderful site that has a huge gallery of cob & lots of great info. Click here to visit them. As for now I hope you will enjoy these few pics I found & love so much.
Chris & Alisha get hitched!
Ahhh, isn’t love a beautiful thing?
Maybe it was the few brass trinkets from India brought back by my grandfather, maybe the stories of Ali Baba & his cave of treasures, or maybe it was the days I’d stay home from school sick watching repeats of I dream of Jeanie wishing I could live in her bottle.
I want to go to there...
Today I dreamed of embellished silk dupioni, sari’s, embroidered pillows and other such luxuriant things as I often do. Gathering inspirations for my own little slice of bohemian heaven is always at the top of my to do list.
So I followed my dream of silk drapes
through ebay & then on to fabric stores. I will have them someday even if I have to make them myself!
I definitely have too many wishes, wants & dreams of projects to come to list them all in this post. So, until next time, shine on you crazy diamond!
