Milagos Papel Streames
I found these beautiful Mexican wedding decorations at artist Hazel Terry's blog The Art Room Plant. You can find them at Mexican Gallery shop Milagros Next to the Columbia Road Flower Market in London or online here.
Oh yes Lorna they remind me of circular ones my grandmother had on her sideboard....I recently saw an image of a wedding dress made by stitching them together..it was amazing.
Joan....these colours are lovely aren't they...I've just been over to look at yours....beautiful...
I love making things, drawing, reading and travelling to places that I've never been to before...going round the corner to see what's there. I am drawn like a moth to lights and lanterns, arthouse films, galleries, coffee shops, orchids, old black and white photographs, rooting around flea markets and jumble sales, newsprint and text, Brick Lane, Camden and Portobello Road.
They remind me of the crochet table covers I inherited from my great Aunt. They were from between the wars.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful..I've just been posting green and white..and yellow
