Re-designing a picture frame and metal vase

I decoupaged this tray with tissue copies of script and a French Label.
 
 
I aged the parts of the frame that I did'nt decoupage. I dry-brushed the script on the inside of the frame with watered down gesso.
 
I inserted a French perfume label.
 
 
Now I am on the hunt for some cute handles to finish it off!
 
 
I love the patina of the inside of this metal vase, just the right amount of variation in color and rust!
 
 
Just a pity that this fabulous patina did'nt favour the outside of this vase.
 
I decoupaged this vase with French script and an image of a lady playing the violin. I bathed the lace in an acrylic wash and used it as a frame for the image. I also painted the base and the edge of the vase with a mix of acrylic paints and did some distressing!
