Here is the first project from the collection of "good stuff" I acquired a couple of days ago. The cake cover, with its acorn knob and acorn and oak leaf border, just begged for an autumn scene. This is a broad interpretation of a pattern I got from Debbie
Richey at
The Sugar Bucket. I love everything about it, especially that big sunflower! I rubbed the acorn boarder with a metallic copper stamp ink to highlight it. The knob was perfect as it came --- I like to think of all the times it was used to lift the cover off a baker's delight inside.

You do wonders with your finds. Love it!
Hi, I wanted to leave comment yesterday on your post about all your new "good finds", but suddenly time ran short. But I just have to leave comment today, because I LOVE what you did with the cake cover. When I saw that cover in its original condition, it transported me right back to my childhood because my mother had a cover just like that, well minus the acorn! :-) I have always wondered what happened to it. Well, your art work is SOO impressive, it is just amazing!! Wow, what talent you have. Very nice indeed!! Have a great weekend, Debby
Love it Martha! Just what a cake cover with an acorn on top needed!
Make this a day filled with laughter.
Blessings, Susie
Awesome!!
I just knew you would get to that right away!
And so cute!
You do such beautiful work.
My problem with 'gathering', is that i gather, but don't usually get things done. I need to be more like you. Buy it, paint it!!
Blessings on your day.
