Romantic Whites Around My Home
I almost didn't do a post this beautiful White Wednesday. Felt a little Blog Block or something. Then, I caught a glimpse of the Victoria magazine cover with its pretty mother of pearl buttons and whatnot on the cover and I started looking around my house for inspiration. One thing led to another and I had enough white fodder to make a couple of pretty mosaics. I love making photo mosaics, particularly when there is a theme like the color white involved. There are a number of ways for you to make these, but my favorite is Big Huge Labs. It's FREE and you have a nice selection of orientations for your mosaics and it's very easy to use. They have other applications, but to be honest, I've never tried anything but their mosaic maker. Perhaps one of these days, I'll fiddle around with some of the other programs they have.
I'm linking up this post to Kathleen's White Wednesday. Pop on over and check out all of the beautiful, dreamy, vintage, and serene whites that other bloggers have for you to look at. If you need to stay warm this beautiful January day, this ought to help you.
Until next time,
