I used a medium grey Kim Klassen texture from the Febtrio collection.

The first piece of advice from this week’s
“Be Still 52” assignment on Prop Shopping was DO NOT purchase everything you
see. Fall in love first, and then decide. I started shopping on
Thursday - it was a therapeutic session because I was upset and decided a
little shopping would give me the opportunity to calm down and "be
still."
I was about 25 miles from home but ran
into one of the stores on the list for great prop bargains. Restricting myself to the clearance aisle I
picked up and examined cups, dishtowels, table runners and breadboards. I
popped a couple in my basket then made my way to the "full price” aisles.
There I found a wonderful white pitcher
with blue lettering. PITCHER was written across the top as if one needed
help identifying it's purpose.
The lettering and the pitcher were
beautiful, but full price. I already had a breadboard, a cup, some
labels, a journal, and some note paper in my basket, so I put the pitcher back on the shelf
and ran quickly to the cashier to pay for my bounty. I walked out of the
store content that I had done a great job - everything on sale.
This morning I took my items out for
a second look and was soooooo sorry I did not have the beautiful pitcher.
I couldn’t possibly drive the 25 miles back to the store where I had seen
the pitcher, but decided to spend sometime at a store in my neighborhood – just in
case I could find the same pitcher. I
did not fit the Blue Beauty, but, I found this little gem.
It works well with the last rose from my garden
and I don’t think the Blue Beauty would have worked at all. My Friday Find....
