Restoring a Coaster + Delft Lotta

I have had this really pretty coaster for a while now. I do not even know where it came from. It's damaged and I had meant to fix it so much sooner but now that I've left it so long, the damages are so bad that I need to restore the image on the coaster.

I decided to go ahead and finally fix it now that I have access to all my art supplies. First I had to apply glue to paste down parts of the image that were coming loose and would soon come off. Then, I began to apply paint onto the parts of the image that are missing.

I didn't think to take this picture until I'd already applied clear glue to save the parts that are left and began painting.

I'm just starting with a base of the colours and will fill in details later. 

After applying a base of paint.

One thing I did not do was repair the background yet. It's stained, most likely from tea. I need to create a proper off-white to do this but felt it should be left until everything else had dried. This is probably going to be a long project as there are many fine details in the image. I will have to decide just how detailed I will go into what I add back in. Once the painting is done, I will have to make sure to seal it.

Here is a coordinate on my dress form for my new Delft Lotta jumperskirt from Innocent World. Somehow I wound up with what I am pretty sure is the long version. >;( I've been trying to decide whether or not I want to alter it, wait to find the short version for sale or just run with it and try out a long style dress. I am really digging this dress and this coordinate I've created. I can't believe I was able to find the matching head bow as well. It's a perfect size <3 The material is quite light-weight and doesn't seem to require ironing. The material is not the exact same as my Marie Rose dress, but the effect is the same. They are both a nice polyester.

Btw, delft is a type of pottery art from Europe (English or Dutch, I guess) which typically has an image in blue on a white background. Cool to know where this dress got such an odd (to me) name!
