The silver borders are simple peel-offs that I had in a 'give-away' box, because I didn't know how to value them properly. My son Joël had given them as a gift last Christmas - now I wish he had brought some more with him!! Isn't that nice to actually be happy with something you thought you would never use??
I embossed over the hangers about three to four times, this is what gives them that ornamental feel.
Thank you Lynn for sharing a piece of your art with me! It is great to have a close-up to be inspired.
Jacqueline They came out Beautifully. The silver peel offs look perfect on them. So glad I could inspire you. I see more to come in the future I'm sure!!! Now you Inspire me!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hangers, Jacqueline!
ReplyDeleteWhat perfect little vintage ornaments! The embossing is a great touch and the silver border really makes them special, so lucky to have them on hand...I love how things work out that way. Both you and Lynn inspire me!
ReplyDeletesuch lovely christmas ornaments - very beautiful Jacqueline
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic. I love the stickers around the edges. I thought it was embossed with silver embossing but this is better because it stands out beautifully and looks like it is framed.
ReplyDeleteOh, so pretty! Each one a little masterpiece! Love how bright the colors are!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised you didn't like the silver edging right away....seems like it would go perfectly with your art. But you've found a great use for them now....such gorgeous vintage ornaments.
ReplyDelete(I decorate my tree this year with only my handmade ornaments .... and a few from friends such as you, and it looked so lovely!)
Oh wow, very neat effect with the borders and the additional embossing! Beautiful work - love these tags!
ReplyDeletejust love these and that edging suits them so well..
ReplyDeleteI can just picture a Christmas tree filled with white lights, vintage ornaments and your pretty creations!! Love these! The silver looks amazing- so glad you found a use for it- I agree, that is fun! :) Happy New Year! Thanks for all you have shared on your blog in 2009. I look forward to another year of your creativity!!
ReplyDeleteThey are so beautiful and the embossing edges add so much, well done.
ReplyDeleteWOW, these are stunning Jacqueline! Your vintage look is so classy. Happy New Year! Doing Project 365 over at my blog. Check it out!
ReplyDeleteStunning 'hangers' the way you have used the peel offs is an inspiration, I like the term you used 'to value them properly' I think a lot of us have items in our stash that are not valued properly and can become beautiful with a little love and inspiration TFS XXX
ReplyDeleteTotally stunning, Jacqueline! Love them all!
