Nature Behind Glass


I was just messing around in my studio today to get some stuff ready to take to the antique shop where I rent a small shelf.  I seldom start with a plan as.....I seem to do my best work when I'm spontaneous.
 
 
I've had this glass display case for a while with no inspiration and even tried to 'rust' the metal (it didn't work).  I actually now like the juxtaposition of the natural, rustic elements and the glass and metal.


"Nest" woven from Black Eyed Susan vine, assorted mosses, quail eggs, hornet's nests, tallow berries, a vintage clay pot, feathers and a few branches.....nature's bounty!


I'll be taking it to the shop tomorrow...

Thanks for stopping by, and I would love to hear from you.

Blessings,
Susie

  1. I love it. I'm with you. Creativity doesn't come until I start working on a project. That's why it's so hard for me to delegate to anyone what they can help me do. Yikes! That's how I get myself overloaded, but...oh well.

  5. This makes a sweet natural display. We don't have tallow berries. I love the look of them. Thanks for stopping by! The napkins are from William Sonoma! They are lovely and soft and they still carry them.
