    The Vase and Bowl were actually from a shiney upholstery fabric I found in a antique shop yrs ago...I then fussy cut out the flowers in one large piece from floral fabric. The Camera's and teacups again pre printed fabrics. The flowers in the basket are 3D which I made and hand stitched...I'll add some close ups...I used my sewing machine to write out the titles of each book since it was much neater then my handwriting. The photo is of my husbands GG which I stitched out from a photo w/my emb machine...Most of the book titles are family members showing date of birth and death of that person...family history books.

    I love your "wood" fabric. That tall vase on the bottom shelf looks real!
