Broken china earrings are one of my least favorite things to make. It can be so difficult to make two identical,( and while I am a big fan of wearing non identical earrings, it is a real art to make a pair that looks great and not just like you failed at making them identical.
But they are also one of the things I make that I enjoy looking at (and wearing) the most. C'est la vie.
Items of joy.
Pair of dangling earrings from one of my favourite broken/damaged pieces donated by the generous Robyn of @wildhorses_interiors
It was a gorgeous abstract design terracota plate (possibly Mediterranean?).
Kicking myself for not taking a photo of it beforehand.
Wish I was in this garden.
This serene scene is from a Royal Winton Grimwades Pekin creamer, a piece of Chinoiserie from the 1950s.
Found in a charity shop with a hairline crack going across the spout.
Looking forward to @hornimanmarket tomorrow.
I'll be there 10-3PM, by the bandstand.
Come for a nice stroll, coffee, some local handmade retail therapy and great views.
Follow the sun.
Loving the sunny weather we've been having.
Hope it carries through to Sunday, when I'll be back @hornimanmarket for Secondhand Sundays.
See you then!
Our front garden Japanese Acer currently has the sweetest tiny blooms, which (very conveniently) look a lot like the charming little blossoms in this latest broken china necklace. 🌿🌼
