A Purple Passion!


Purple, amethyst, violet, lilac...
I love using these colors in my work.  Mixing violet and olive or emerald, like this:


Or, lilac with lavender:


I find the color combinations so stunning!

It is such a coincidence that Etsy Cottage Style would do a Purple Passion color feature because I just finished taking photos of a collection of vintage purple hankies that I will offer on my site.  While I am just the biggest fan of glitzy sparkle, I have always had a soft spot for vintage fabrics and  lace.  So I am happy to share my vintage hankie collection, starting with PURPLE!  




Thank you, Etsy Cottage Style, for letting us show off our Purple Passion!

Happy Tuesday and Happy FIRST DAY OF MARCH......we're getting closer to SPRING!!!!

  6. I've always like the color purple, and amethyst is my birthstone. When I was young, my mom let me paint my room purple! :) I love vintage stuff, too! Those hankies are gorgeous!
