Craft Show!!!

March 19 I'm doing a craft show/fundraiser at a school here locally.. If you are interested in attending, please message me and I will get the details to you. My friend Carrie (http://www.swankyladyvintage.etsy.com/) will have her stuff up for sale too at my booth. So we'll have a good mix of vintage goodies.

I'm going to be busy these next few weeks getting everything ready!! I'm sure I'll be posting alot of pictures :)

My Country Tis of Thee...




Is it ever too early to celebrate our independence? No need for the 4th of July. My bestie inspired me to pick up some red, white, and blue ribbon when she gave me some patriotic songbooks from the 30's and an enamal pin (which I love!).

Somethin for the Kiddies




These are for the little ones... or for those who are just young at heart. I tried to find ribbon that reminded me of vintage fabric.

More Feathers






Lovin the wispy black feathers! They lay nice in the hair. And the black flower with silver center is one of my favorites. I'll be making myself one!

Before & After


I'm not a big recycler, but this was a good use of something that would just have been thrown away. And I needed some more storage!





This Makes Me Happy


Lots of new ribbons mixed with my old stored in my pretty little basket. This really does make me happy. It's like a new box of crayons. And I love crayons. I buy a box of 2 (or 4) every school season when the stores have them for .25. I just can't help it. And my ribbon is starting to be the same. How can you pass up a half off sale?! Wait until you see my new buttons!! lol.

Tea Roses


This design is a keeper I think. Looks like she's ready for a tea party. Little sissy was wearing it, but refused to pose so it was up to big sissy to do it. I think this one will also be in our own collection. I will be making several for purchase.
