This Recreated compote was completed for the 2005 Exhibition. A number of items with decoupaged roses had been included in my range of newly designed Treasures that year. This too found a new home & is proudly displayed there. Many of these items are used as decorative features which can brighten up any little corner, dresser, mantle or kitchen. They can be paired up or grouped with similar pieces. I like to team them up with gorgeously flowing sheer tablecloths trimmed with silky fringing, or tassells – either soft bodied or beaded ones, casually draped over the dish or base of the compote. You could easily find little trinkets, vases, silk roses, candle-holders or any nifty little items, cloths, laces or runners & arrange them in a display.
