'Le Vie en Rose'

Posted by Knottylady Designs Showstoppers on 12/15/2006

Rose-scented geraniums (Pelargonium graveolens), with a delicate, spicy rose-scent came to mind together with 'Le Vie en Rose' (Edith Piaf/french singer) as these gorgeous organic wool/soy yarns felted. These two beautiful bowls with trivet & coasters have a myriad of uses. Rose-scented geranium petals are used for potpourri,preserves,teas, vinegars & sachets. Enjoy my 'rose geranium organic pottery & think of Paris & 'the little French sparrow' singing' Le Vie en Rose'. (No real fragrances used in creating these.) Enjoy!

Trendy or traditional ; pretty and petite are perfect adjectives for these gorgeous knitted , felted & needle felted bags. Until I have a bag in the works and complete it; I have never "FELT" this kind of passion for an art form which is not unique to this era but has been handed down though generations and has become more popular for bags, slippers,mittens, scarves and anything that can be knitted with the gorgeous wools on the market along with so many beautiful novelty yarns. I hope that you enjoy looking at my felted pieces as much as I enjoy the whole process from hand spun yarn to kettle dyeing to the final felting process it is a challenging and fulfilling artform. The process of needle felting adds decorative wool 'pictures' to my finished felted pieces & at times gives the piece a three dimentional look. It is a very rewarding process. I have used many mediums and this is one of my favorites because it is like 'PAINTING WITH YARN". My theme bags/totes are exciting to create but I have other artistic creations that I will enjoy sharing with you. Thank You for stopping by. Patricia Maxwell
