Palace of London Key to Travel


I like images with advertising art, they always seem nostalgic to me. So I created this oval resin piece with a hotel advertising label in it, bright red, and set it in an oval ornate pewter frame.

I guess I have travel on my mind, it's almost time to start packing for Artfest. I can't wait!


This red oval has the words "PALACE HOTEL LONDON" and "Central to Everywhere" in it, it's translucent so light shines through when you hold it up to a light.

The attached key reminds me of some of the hotels and B&B I stayed in during the trip to Scotland.

It looks so ancient!

It's like your very own key to a special place far, far away. Love it!

Love the hotel key idea. I just adore skeleton keys -- reminds me of the keys tothe first house my husband and I rented just after we were married. Sweet!

When I traveled to Scotland I passed through London very quickly, but I haven't really visited - I'd like to go back one day.
