Cottage & Family:
vintage bottles

Today is another creating
day waiting for Isaac's arrival ~
In our anticipation,
we dug out some vintage medicine bottles
and created these place card holders!
We love them :)

The very best part of
having a website is
getting to create!!
It is so much fun to
pile lace and stuff all
over the table and "play" ~

This is just a couple of
pictures of what we
have been working on while
we wait for Kristin's baby to
be born ~ 2 more days
until the due date !!

Today I got all of the
lace out of my flea market
shopping cart and got
busy tea dying it ~

The hot sun today was
perfect for drying the
lace fast :)

I needed a good drying
rack though and
remembered this ladder
in my yard ~

It worked perfect!!

The rungs gave alot
of area to drape the
lace over ~

After it was dry
and ironed I got busy
creating the bottles in
the picture above for
a shop in San Diego ~

My very favorite
part of what I do is
the creating part ❤

I haven't been blogging for about a week now because

my mom and dad have been here visiting from California ~

We always enjoy our times together and I truly miss

being closer to them ~

This picture is my dad, mom, hubby and daughter ~

My mom and I had fun creating one night and worked

on some vintage bottles and books ~

They are all on my Katies Rose Cottage website ~

The other thing I have been working on is adding some of

our new charms to Katies Rose Cottage Designs ~

There will be alot more added over the next few days too ~

I love all of the new designs so much !

It is time to list some more or go to bed .... hmmmm ~

I have been having fun creating more bottles and tying them with seam binding ribbon ~

This seam binding just sat in the HOT Texas sun after being bleached and tea dyed ~ It is all crinkled which is so cool ! I loved the way the colors looked when they were all piled together ~

We also just listed the new Somerset Life ~ It is beautiful as always !
You can find it here ~

I am always looking for vintage bottles when I am at flea markets and I found some at Canton last month ~ Yay !!!
It is so much fun to embellish them and these are the last ones that I did just today ~
I really love roses so these are probably some of my favorites so far ~

The vintage images are from Lunagirl.com

I also found these beautiful Robin's Egg Blue bottles too and I love them !
