The Yellow Rose of Texas Incense Holder was created with a vintage Texas souvenir dish that I found in a Nebraska thrift store. Added a gold tapestry tile, painted gold glass gems, a red glass heart, flora from a vintage plate and porcelain yellow roses from a vintage bouquet. Love this piece.
The Yellow Rose of Texas Mosaic Tile Incense holder measures 4″ inches wide x 9″ inches long x 3/4″inches thick with a built-in stick incense holder and can be found at the Balsam Studio shop on Etsy.
Blank canvas. Plastic no less.
Glued the same tile until I couldn’t see straight. Hoped for the best.
Perfectly Perky!

A jar of glass marbles jumped off the shelf, inspiration granted.
The vintage window was purchased in Orange, California with my sista friend, Alice. A fun day was had by all.
Lovin’ the glass heart porthole! Sorry, sold.
“Don’t think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It’s self-conscious and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can’t “try” to do things. You simply “must” do things.” — Ray Bradbury
“The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive. To him… a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover is a god, and failure is death. Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create — so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating.” — Pearl S. Buck
