Talented Time Travelers in Focus #39

YOU CAN JOIN THIS WEEK'S PARTY—STILL IN PROGRESS—HERE!

But let's also take a peek at some of the pretties linked by the participants of last week's party.

Grandpas are good for sooo many things—big bear hugs, lots of love, and surprise gifts. 

Christie @ Claremont Avenue has her grandpa to thank for the uniquely decorative piece above.  He presented it to her in its original state—as an old lantern-style light fixture.

Christie tweaked it, to create this unique and stylish candleholder.

One of the unexpected pleasures I've discovered through blogging is the opportunity to learn about other cultures—via my following friends from all over the world.  It's fun to observe the similarities and differences.

For instance, my blogging friend from India @ Adithis' Amma Sews and I both love to sew.  However, while she creates beautiful fashions, I prefer sewing items for my home.

Spring is popping up all over the blogosphere and Sue @ Sullivan and Murphy shared her china hutch all decked out for this much anticipated season. 

But it was the gorgeous transferware and ironstone that stole the show for me.

I'm always game for a good transformation project.  Aren't you?

Well, Lisa @ Recaptured Charm put faith in her transformation skills to bring a tired old piece back to life.  Was it worth it?  I would say so.


And that's a wrap for another fun party.  Now what creative endeavors are you linking this week?
