Seeing Pink Elephants

❍  ❍  
So, it all started when I bought a simple little pair of tin pink elephant components made from a vintage, mid-century, cocktail tip tray. I loved the elephants so much I hunted down a couple of the trays!  To be honest, the trays are so adorable I'm not sure I can cut these up!


Here are the little guys from Shipwreckdandy that started my binge!



Pink elephants need bubbles so I used hollow blown glass beads.




And, using another portion of the tray...


 This time I thought some white elephant charms would really pop!  I added some vintage glass pearls to complete the bubbly effect. ❍❍❍




And, some smaller iridescent plastic bubbles!






Elegant Elephant Ears!!


Pewter charms by Inviciti with scattered various vintage pearls!



Lastly, I made some pins!

I had a lot of fun with this!  It's good to break out and just do things that make you feel happy :)

Thank you for stopping by today!

See you again in February!
