I am happy to be all finished with my 2014 angels. Two of my designs were influenced by my recent trip to France. I found such an interesting variety of the Fleur-de-lis in the tile and walls of a little side chapel of a church in a small town of France. There were little spheres tucked inside the top petals of the lily image. I researched this to find out that they represented the stamens of the lily blossom. My 4” angel holds this Fleur-de-lis.

My 3” angel holds a mistletoe bouquet that was influenced by the bare branched winter trees decorated with globes of mistletoe all over the French countryside.

Merci pour les souvenirs.
