Now, These Are MY Kind Of Eggs!

All I can say is Wow!  

Martha has instructions Here for something similar using food coloring.  The eggs above are definitely brighter than what food coloring can do, with the addition of gold leaf.  I also found These instructions...  

Any ideas???

Erin's Masks...

I've been a big fan of Erin Fetherston for quite a while!  Her clothing is always whimsical, ethereal and fairytale like...  For her Fall 09 collection some of her models wore sparkling masks with her dresses - masks created by her husband Hedi Ferjani. Lovely..!

Sunday Dreaming...

“If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time.”

Prison Yard Herb Garden...

This is a beautiful re-creation of a medieval herb garden in what was the former prison excercise yard of Ypres Tower, Rye, East Sussex.  I cannot help thinking how wonderful this would be in our current Prison environments...  Link  

Spiritual Herbalist...

This is a delightful representation of Hildegard of Bingen by Mark Clarke for his exhibition 'Cabinets of Cures'.

"Mark Clarke has devised five ‘cabinets of cures’ for Wellcome Collection. Created from his personal hoard of reclaimed fabrics and found objects, each cabinet tells of a personality or story from the history of our struggle against sickness and disease."
