Paint Party Friday

Ewe EEE...it's been a while since I participated. I really need to get back to my blogging routine. But you know how life has a way of taking you downstream.......like a leaf in a stream...well that's me it seems in a fast running stream to boot. So now I'm trying to swim back up. LOL So today's feature for Paint Party Friday is this beautiful china painted rosary box.

I painted it with a dogwood desing and then I thought, well it still needed something. I toyed with the idea of edging it in gold but then I thought I'd try some little scroll work around the edge. I like it much better with the scrolls. It's something different. I may do the other ones I have with scrollwork. But then again if I do too many it won't be different will it. Oh well.

I love dogwoods and I was thinking that rather than being headed for winter, I sure would love it to be spring. So it's spring in my mind.

If you like the Rosary Box, it's available in my Etsy shop. But I do a craft show tomorrow so I can't promise it will still be there in a day or so. I'm putting my Etsy shop on "vacation" mode tonight until Sunday. But here's the link.

Wow, I had to go back a reread to make sure you were saying you painted this. It's really beautiful. I can't even imagine painting on China, let alone so realistically.
