CHRISTMAS IN PEACOCK PARADISE
Marie has once again been invited to show
her incredible miniature village at
the annual "Christmas on the Rails" event
at the Picayune Train Depot in
Picayune Mississippi!
Last year's event was incredible due to
Marie's huge display of her "village of old".
She puts it together so beautifully and
makes it come to life before your eyes.
A special holiday gift for you...
a video of "MARIE VILLAGE" created
by Marie Antoinette...
A special Thank You to Marie's hubby
for the filming of "Marie Village"!
*******
Darling Marie has been a busy
little elf working steadily in
her work shop to present
fabulous creations to
dazzle you!
Presenting...
THE BRIDAL CHRISTMAS "TREE"
This is so breathtaking!
Marie has created an elegant "tree" that
would look fabulous in any room.
It's so elegant and graceful!
Imagine this displayed at a Christmas wedding
or in your home as a bridal theme for an
upcoming wedding. The possibilities are
endless.
The gorgeous lace is just beginning to have
the faintest coloring of time.
Remember the sneak peek we gave you
of this beautiful vintage look cameo ornament?
That was the inspiration for this
timeless holiday bridal tree.
There are vintage looking ornaments all
throughout the lace, strands of beaded garland
draped , the palest pink peacock at the sleeves
from which a sparkling chandelier hangs,
topped with a shimmering gold crown...
and a delicate glass bird
perched on the shoulder!
Of course not!!
Presenting...
THE NUTCRACKER THEATRE DOLL
As the story goes...
Many Christmas Eves later Clara
is leaving soon for the Christmas Ball.
She sees the old Nutcracker that her
Godfather, Heer Drosslemeyer, gave
her so many years ago. He was an odd
sort of man but now she could see his
love for children through his careful
selection of gifts for them.
Clara recalls the dream she had that particular
Christmas Eve when she received that special
gift. Her Nutcracker came to life and
was fighting the Mouse King!
It all seemed so real. The details were still
etched into her mind.
It was a furious battle and then...
her Nutcracker defeated the Mouse King!
Right before her eyes
the Nutcracker turned into a
handsome Prince that lived in the
Land of the Sweets. Yes... he took her
there where fairies danced to
the most beautiful music.
Oh my, it's all flooding back...
my beloved Nutcracker and the Prince.
As Clara makes her way through her
beautiful gardens her eyes meet his...
her darling handsome husband...
who has the same face as the Prince
in her dream so many years ago.
She knew instantly the first time she
saw him... he was the one!
What a sweet life they had together.
Story by Edie Marie
Marie's exquisite Nutcracker Theater Doll
is incredible! Photos do not do it justice.
The fabric is a beautiful red embossed velvet.
So soft and lovely.
The theater within turns and is lite by a
crystal chandelier. The figures in the theater
are porcelain with fine detailing.
This doll will also be on display at
the Picayune Train Depot for
"Christmas on the Rails".
This is the most gorgeous doll I've
ever seen Marie make. They're all so
fabulous... how does she make each one
better?? Somehow she does! She's my
amazing blog partner and dear friend Marie!!

CHRISTMAS ON GOLDEN POND
Now lets have some fun in the studio!
I saw this idea on Pinterest (of course)
and wanted to give it a try.
Pinterest Inspiration
Christmas Project no1
On a difficulty scale of 1-10, I give
this project a 3. This was a fun and fairly
simple project for one person to tackle. I
would make another one of these, maybe
even two!
I had a
nice shaped bottle my dear friend Kitty
had given me. She hated to put it in
her re-cycling bin because it was too cool.
I found some old bottle brush trees at our
local antique mall and had plenty of ribbon
scraps and glitter to do the job!
Well, it does!
So here's my list of supplies:
Bottle, stopper, bottle brush tree, glitter,
adhesive (I used spray adhesive), ribbons,
do-dads.
1. I sprayed the tree with spray adhesive.
2. Sprinkle tree generously with glitter.
Then sprinkle it some more!
3. Tap, tap, tap off excess glitter.
4. I added some loose beads to my jar
then decided a small scrap of beaded
trim would coordinate for some
neck decoration. I glued & pinned
mine with a tiny straight pin.
5. Fabulous! Now glue your glittered tree
to the bottle stopper. My fav glue for such
applications is E6000. Very dependable.
6. I found a # plate "25" in my do-dads and
attached with some thin ribbon. Then
added a sheer black ribbon around the
bottle stopper/tree trunk to compliment
the black on the # plate.
7. Display and enjoy!
I had a lot of fun making
the bottle project.

This is so breathtaking!
Marie has created an elegant "tree" that
would look fabulous in any room.
She has used the traditional tree shape to
put a whole new take on what you can
do with that vintage wedding gown
that's hanging in your closet!
It's so elegant and graceful!
Imagine this displayed at a Christmas wedding
or in your home as a bridal theme for an

ReplyDeleteSherry those bottles you created are outstanding too. Your talents and creative spirit are incredible. You too have been a busy girl in your studio there on golden pond. The inspiration you share always give encouragement. Thank you for sharing the steps to your project. Looks like a lot of glittering going on in all our studios. LOL
Thank you for the beautiful song too.
Going back to view the video again. You girls have a wonderful week and lots of fun as you create, decorate and enjoy the season.
Love to you both.

Your bridal tree looks awesome and unique. The color chosen for it is really wonderful to see. No words to describe the beauty of the tree.
ReplyDeleteGirls, thank you for the invitation. I so love to see what you are doing because it is always fabulous! What a treat for
ReplyDeletePt2
ReplyDelete...what a treat for Marie's community to see her work at Christmas time. The bridal gown tree is amazing.
Now I could not aspire to create on that level, but I sure do love the bottle, Sherry. It is as charming and sweet as can be. I know that I have bottles and trees, glitter and corks somewhere!
Good glory, you two......
ReplyDeleteThat dress tree....you are unbelievable. I would have NEVER, EVER thought of doing this, and you have DONE IT! CLAP CLAP CLAP!!!!!!!
My two beloved friends, thank you for your visit; I wish you ENCOUNTERS with the Most High as His angels watch over you!
BISOUS! (Oh how that dress is making me swoon!) Anita
Good morning! What beautiful ideas you have shown! The wedding dress tree is such a magnificent creation of loveliness, uniqueness and beauty! Everything is in AWE! Looks as if you are in full gear for the Holiday decor!!.....it will be different with me this year. Renovations at the cottage will keep decorating minimal this season. Glory to God in the Highest...Peace on Earth...Goodwill towards men! Your dress looks as if an angel should be wearing it! Blessings~~~Roxie
ReplyDeleteOf course I am dying to ask you all kinds of questions about your marvelous village like how long have you been collecting and wherever did you find such fabulous houses and animated objects? What an amazing display and you are such a doll to transport it and set it up for others to view. I can't imagine the work and the train loads it takes to get it all there. The ponds and the swans, the gazebos, the circus, the dancing Lords and Ladies - just blew me away and hubby was so kind to film it all too.
ReplyDeleteThe bridal tree is so fun and wouldn't that be the most amazing display for a Christmas wedding? I loved it.
Your Marie doll is wonderful too. You always do such a fabulous job on those. Wow, you sure have been a busy elf!!! Thanks for sharing.
oh my goodness! where do we start girls? first of all....MARIE!!! look at that miniature village oh....my....goodness!! It is amazing...and so beautiful ~ thank your dear husband for filming that for us! Little (ha ha!) displays like this are one of our favorite things to look at.....better than just one little dollhouse to decorate ~ right?!! Anyway it is simply amazing Marie ~ bravo!! Loved the idea of the wedding dress tree as well...caught that right away on the video and when we scrolled down to read we were pleased that we were right ~ lol! The nutcracker theater doll is gorgeous....the Nutcracker is one of our favorites! Every year when Karla's kiddos were younger we'd head to Toledo's theater for the show :) You've started our Christmas off right dear Marie!! If only we could have had you with Sherri at the Antique mall the a couple of weeks ago...oh the fun we could have had ~ lol!!! Sherri...LOVE the bottle brush tree on the bottle...tonight we are doing a class where we are putting bottle brush trees on candlestick holders and old china....bottles...duh?!! what were we thinking lol! I'll have to scrounge around for some today!
ReplyDeleteWishing you girls a very blessed Christmas! Love ya!
Karla & Karrie
You've been collecting for years and years, it is clear. What a marvelous Village that is! It is, without a doubt, the most widespread mini town I have ever seen. Hope all the birds a staying cheerful in your neck of the woods, ours have settled in nicely and no longer roam.
ReplyDeleteHELLO LADIES,
ReplyDeleteThe Bridal Christmas Tree should be displayed in a store window! I've never seen anything like it before. What a clever idea, and it brings back memories when Nel was a new bride last year. I have always loved the Nutcracker, so this theatre doll is special to me. And I love the RED she is wearing! Oh, those bottle brush tree bottles are gorgeous! I wish I would have known about this project before, as me and the girls had craft night together recently. Come on over and see the crafts that we did if you get a chance. I love these bottles so much. They kind of remind me of perfume bottles, which I collect. All the glitter, ribbon, and pearls really add a special touch and make these look so pretty.
It looks like you are enjoying the Christmas season. What a wonderful post this is. Thank you for inviting me to see it.
Love,
~Sheri
Hello Ladies: Marie, that doll is AMAZING. I can only imagine how much better it looks in person. You are so talented and have such a gift. What a job you did in setting up your Christmas village. It must have given so much enjoyment to all that were lucky enough to see it. Edie, your little tree bottle is precious and is a fun project. I too have seen them on Pinterest and really enjoy them..Thank you, ladies, for sharing all your talents with us..Happy Thursday..Judy
ReplyDeleteAnd I forgot to mention the bridal tree. One of a kind and so beautiful..J
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, what an amazing post, filled with the wonders of the holiday season. Wonder if it would be okay for me to live in Marie's village for the next couple of months. :) Her creations are unbelievable. And Edie, I love your bottles. wishing you both a happy happy Christmas. xo

ReplyDeleteThank you for the thoughtful visit and comment left on my blog. Your Christmas video is fun. Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteMarie, I just love your Xmas Village. I remember when I first saw what I now think may be a slightly smaller version(?) on your site, I really wanted one for myself :).
ReplyDeleteBut I don't have the space for such a splendourous display so a good alternative is to hang out here whenever I feel like one.
Thank you, Marie, this is indeed a very special post.
OMG!!!! The Bridal tree is to die for!! I actually have my wedding gown on a dress form and would love to do something like this. A truly fantastic post, ladies!!

I am positively enchanted with your stunning wedding gown Christmas tree - and especially your Nutcracker Suite Theatre.

Is that something that would be acceptable to you?
Anyway - I love the way you "see" the things around you and make such enchanting and delightful items from them! Merriest of holidays to you...and, please, let me know if it's acceptable for me to do a blog post on your Nutcracker Theatre!

How pretty they are! You girls are so talented and full of inspiration. I really enjoy visiting you. Wishing you both a very Merry Christmas, and sending many hugs your way! xoxo

ReplyDeleteHave a magical New Year dear ones...
Wow, look at all of those comments!! And I can understand why! Everything is just magnificent! The Marie Village is amazing, so much to ooh and ahh over. That Bridal Christmas tree is gorgeous, love all the glass balls but my favorite is the cameo one, love the crown on top and teh little birdie on the shoulder. And OH MY, love, love, love the Theater doll! Pretty figures and a great story! Thanks for sharing all that beauty with us and thanks for visiting my Olde Curiosity Shop post, I like it that you noticed the little details in it that tell little stories about the scene. I so appreciate your visit and kind comment!
