My neighbour has a large creeper (huge white heavily perfumed fowers - must find out the name!) that tumbles from their side into our garden, so I am also blessed with "borrowed" perfume. It's particularly lovely in the cool of the evenings and I cannot get enough of the fragrance.Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626558959674808582.post-64709776987385079682010-11-28T02:29:17.917+02:002010-11-28T02:29:17.917+02:00The mosaic class sound so fun!

I was out today cleaning up and noticed my fuchsias were all frozen in the cold we had a few days ago, luckily they will all be back next summer. Star jasmine is a favorite of mine, I can almost smell your picture!Catherine@AGardenerinProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001060769253273283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626558959674808582.post-12494767351001901272010-11-27T23:21:44.939+02:002010-11-27T23:21:44.939+02:00Hi Alison:

Next time, don't be so tough on yourself.Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626558959674808582.post-89007107677748619922010-11-27T20:57:15.220+02:002010-11-27T20:57:15.220+02:00What?

I was dying to see it after your account of the class, and thought for sure your first picture would be of the mirror frame. I know how you feel about being the slow one, I have tried several mosaic pieces over the years, and have never finished a single one. I went through a time several years ago where I was madly breaking old plates, etc. for mosaics, but then never used them.<br /><br />I'm sure your project is beautiful, I love all the colors you picked, and I'd really like to see what you did with the bracelet pieces. I've seen lots of mosaics that use things like charms from charm bracelets, or (fake) pearls from pearl necklaces. I just don't have the talent for placing stuff.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.com
