Key Box

Last week I found these key boxes and bought a few,
knowing me I couldn't just leave them as they were...





A bit of lace left and right to leave my mark.


I left enough space to see the numbers and keys through the window. 


I was glad to find some fresh spring flowers in the market,
next time I visit Holland I should remember to buy lots of bulbs to
take with me back to Dubai so I will have more flowers growing at home.


I'm still showing off my vintage keys and my pink Toile.


My whole rooms smells so sweet thanks to the Hyacinth.

    I love the enameled numbers in your key box and your lace embellishments are the perfect additions, Angela!
    The smell of hyacinths is wonderful, isn't it?

    Boy do I ever like that key box! I like the way you made it 'yours' with the added lace. Very pretty. Are the keys and the box antiques? Have a blessed weekend. Pamela

    I had to comment again after looking at your blog further. Your Moses baskets are so beautiful! You are very talented. Our nephew lives in Dubai and my sister-in-law was on one of those desert rides last year! Small world isn't it? Pam

    This key box is wonderful, and of course adding the lace makes it so pretty. The addition of the flowers and toile make such a gorgeous vignette. Thanks for sharing with VIF!
    hugs,
