Want Something Different for the Holidays?

How about some decoupaged pretties!? Oval boxes, picture frames, journals, plates ~ even a stylish dress form!

These items are hand-made and imperfect which adds to their charm. Each one made with tender loving care ~ and some whimsy added in here and there.

All items pictured are available for purchase right now (except for the picture frame ~ it's spoken for). These are intended for decorative use mainly. The journals can be used however they are not intended for teens/children because of their delicate nature.

Because of the nature of decoupaging, there will be imperfections and slight warping on some items. But they are sure to light up someone's face when they receive a completely unique gift from you. Perfect for that shabby chic guest room, a bride to be, or just because! You can contact me (ishakeyourhandwarmly@gmail.com) for more photos/prices. New items will be added soon!
