A little Bit About Me

Someplace in Thyme

I have been creating since I was a little girl. I am happy to say that having my own website has opened up a whole new world for me. Trying new mediums is a joy and sometimes a real eye opener. I sell what I create on etsy and my website, someplaceinthyme. If you have questions,please email me at cpeterson72@q.com. I welcome new blog friends and am honored if you find my little piece of heaven interesting enough to follow.

FEELING BLUE? THE COLOR THAT IS.........

Most of what I create for my website is in the pink tones. I think that must be because pink is the people's choice. Don't get me wrong, I like the color pink, but as you know by now, it's not my favorite......yellow is and has been my whole life. What's not to like, it's sunny, bright and cheerful, makes me ever so happy, like a warm puppy or a soft blanket.
Sooooo, that being said, I came across this heavenly beautiful child with blue ribbons in her hair, gorgeous eyes and a pretty dress. I had to make something special with her. Blue it was. This was a little welcome change for me. I love the dots and the stripes together.

Couldn't you just hold her precious face in your hands and love her? She looks like an angel. Blue is calming and clean. I don't know why I don't use this color more often. Maybe I will in the future, we'll see.

With some extra fabric I was able to create this sweet pincushion and I call this the blue teddy bears picnic.

Handmade roses and other blooms along with faux pearls and of course the star: a sweet teddy. These can be found on my website, someplace in thyme.
Please don't forget TUESDAY TREASURES on Shabbylaneshops. This week the theme is "The Vintage Kitchen." You can go to my site and see what I have to offer this week. Simply click on the shabbylane shops link and see what others are offering too. Thanks for stopping in, please be sure to leave comments, I love reading them and love followers too.

Blue is a fave though I think I join PS more :-) I have grown to make a special place for pink as well.

She has such a lovely face and the pin cushion teddy is pretty pretty pretty! Blue is just the perfect color. Perfect color and shade with the teddy and pearls and ribbons! :-)
