Christmas Tree Skirt

I I have always wanted a tree skirt but never found one I loved until today.  I found this hand sitched on at the thrift store next to mine.  I will post a photo once it is on the tree.

Sweet Pink

This sweet little dress was made using vintage linen table cloth and a linen hand towel. I have not sewn a dress for a little one in some time, it brought back memories of my little girls.

A Little halloween fun!

My sister encouraged me to go to the dark side, this was a close as dark I could get for now but I love it. It kind of reminds me of my daughters when they were little and they had a cat. That poor cat never had a chance.  The piece is full of vintage finds, and I waxed over the top of it.

Help me I am addicted to vintage


I found this great vintage wedding cake topper at To Every Nation Thrift store and I had to take it home. What I will do with it I am unsure all I know is I could not leave without it. I also found the great crown pin. It is a great place to volunteer at it is like treasure hunting.

New life for an old Fossil watchband

I loved this old leather watch band I picked up at To Every Nation Thrift Store.  I knew it would make a great cuff. I removed the watch and added some vintage jewelry pieces and it is ready to wear tommorrow.
