I have so many memories playing with these barrettes as a child.  Sneaking into mom’s jewelry box and adorning them along with bright, red lipstick.  They belonged to my great Aunt Peggy, the classiest lady I’ve known.

Thirteen yards of this amazing screen printed vintage fabric for less than ten dollars.  I’ve got a big project on my hands.

I didn’t get a before picture of this suitcase, and the fun the previous child owner had with it.  Thankfully the drawings and writing were left to the front and back, not the sides, making it pretty easy to recover.  Another unplanned savior was that this suitcase has a plastic lip around the edges where I was able to hide the edge of the wallpaper.

I’m finally making time to work on my etsy shop.  Excited to share when it’s ready!

last weekend the flea market was in town, and it was the BIG one of the year.  it took nearly an hour to park, but was well worth it.  a day filled with great finds and great friends.

i found this perfect bicycle ring.  John found this Polaroid 400 from the 1970s, in fabulous condition.  here’s the first photo it produced.
