No surprise that my theme is anything coastal. First of all I thought Id jazz up the key itself and I wondered if some frantage would work on it. Yes it did but oh my how hot does the actual key get while melting the embossing powder! I used some shabby teal. Next up I wrapped a piece of vintage book paper round the key and attached with some rusty wire. I then added a tiny bottle with sand from the beach at my beloved Beadnell (yes I do have a glass vase of the sand along with some sea glass from Beadnell on display in my downstairs loo) and a seahorse charm with some turquoise beads which came from an old earring which was broken. Its off in the post now to Karen and I cant wait to see what everyone adds to it as it goes off on its rounds
I have received Lou's key in the post and her theme is vintage sewing room. Thinking caps on as to what I might add to this one.
what a lovely idea for a swap :-)
