Glass Cloches




To me glass cloches are like sending little love notes... I seem to place little photos or objects I love under glass and change them quite often. I have a couple photos of two more I changed over for a couple weeks... My very large cloche on my table usually displays a faux cake over the summer months but now has a wonderful old looking bunnie with none other than aged book page shred and crinkle ribbon... The other features the other prayer card given to me by Tracey and I have it on my mantle of my fireplace for now...also with a page from a french book given to me with the prayer cards... Objects displayed under glass really catches my eye. My eye through the years of floral and design have been trained to catch the smallest of detail... It is a affair of the heart and senses... The tinest of buttons or a glimpse of a rhinestone adds glam for me... I have also worked with some whom never notice little details... for them little details are of no importance... for me they bring pleasure.. This all proving er are all different and spend many hours of a day enjoying different things.. No rights.. no wrongs... just what we love... As always for me you will probably find me at home... reading a magazine... writing a post... surfing the new... scrapping... cooking or cleaning... and hhhhhhaa... my new habit taking a nap. It has taken me three years to learn to lay down and indulge in a nap... Hum how nice....
Ps. I had a question what was in the one cloche... it is a vintage pearl collar... a lace and rhinestone wristlette { I made} and a rhinestone vintage belt buckle....

Love your cloche designs!

I have lots of cake and cheese covers I user, but the tall ones are harder to find.

Off to see more of your place.

Your cloches are beautiful. I love the bunny one with the shredded book pages. I have the cheese cloches that I use, I need to put small things in these. I usually need a tall one like yours. So pretty....

Beautiful cloches Marietta. I love what you have put inside every one of them. The paper shred and bunny are so sweet!

You can share with your readers if you want to that if they live near a Home Goods store they can usually find large cloches very reasonable. I have a huge one that I paid $14.99for versus a lot more at a garden store.
Have a wonderful Thursday!!
