Love your roses! One of our guest rooms is painted in a pale blush pink, and I'm using roses -- on the fabrics, and with paintings, china, etc., in there. It's such fun! Love that hunt for the elusive perfect rose. Cass

Summer roses are not only found in the garden, but around the home. Now, I'm not one to plaster a whole room with roses, but touches here and there can bring about a smile.
What to do with a china tea cup that has lost it's saucer? Turn it into a pin cushion. It's pretty and useful. Cups with dainty feet are certainly my favorite, but any old cup will do. Fill the cup with stuffing, trim with fabric, and add a beautiful velvet rose.
[Image]Just look at these beautiful china salt and peppers. These were an etsy "love" purchase. [Image]A soft hanger is trimmed with a pretty velvet roses. A rose garden for the home. [Image]These gifts were sent to a friend. I hope she enjoys!
Blessings, Ele
