When I asked Michelle to make one of her beautiful inspiration holders for my giveaway, I asked her to make one for me too...
Debbie's is hiding behind mine...hee hee!
I asked her for a glass knob since we grew up with them adorning all the doors in our house. I also asked her to surprise me with the rest and boy did she ever!
Voila...
Just look at how the glass knob sparkles!
I love how she repurposes the old cards ~ a tribute to my family of four...
And I adore what she put in the beautiful buckle...
How cute is the fleur de lis charm!
Did I ever tell you how I came up with the name for my blog?
cot-tage: a usually small frame one-family house
I have always lived in houses with small, cozy rooms and have always embraced cottage style, going from country to shabby to my current mix of shabby, french farmhouse.
muse: a state of deep thought or dreamy abstraction
In addition to fitting the definition (blogging and now pinning are definitely dreamy abstractions) my maiden name is Muise. It is pronounced a bit different, with a softer s but I just thought the similarity was perfect!
Again, thank you Michelle, I just love my new inspiration holder...
Debbie...you will LOVE yours too!
I am sharing today with Kathleen for White Wednesday.
