Bathing Beauties

Nostalgic collages of yesteryear, this pair adds a delightful
twist to wall art. The canvases may be hung vertically or
horizontally, or propped against the wall on a shelf.

Ordinary terra cotta pots are beautifully transformed
with fabric, paint, and embellishments, and put to use
as decorative catch-alls. Delve into your scrap bins for
fabrics to coordinate with your color schemes.
