I have to apologize for keeping all of my fantastic finds to myself!
I have just been so distracted with creating and doing local craft shows for the holidays I have not been able to put my mind into writing or editing photos for my blog.
I really want to post things that inspire and not just post something to just put up a post.
I have been to several great sales this fall and found so many things I want to make into great stuff! I finally finished all the I Pad and Nook cases that I had designed and cut out so now I can start working with my vintage finds.
I found this great bookcase for $2.00!
I plan to paint it and use it to organize the following fabrics.
The linens above and the next 5 images were from an estate sale that was in a building in downtown Dayton where these people had a costume rental business but they were also hoarders.
Jack pot! 1 sale, unbelievable.
This dress/nightie is beautiful. And the photo below is of 5 very old aprons. I plan to rework 2 of them into something I can wear to my summer shows. I need to dress like my booth, I think.
Jewels to add to bags, bottles or maybe I'll just wear some of them myself. At the same store I found the jewelry I found this box of typewriter keys! I have been wanting a charm bracelet with these type keys in my families initials for a few years and they were all here! My friend Julie is going to make them into my bracelet. I can't wait.
I have a thing for watch faces. These reminded me of my Mom so I picked them up pretty cheep.
Had big hopes for these fall colored fabrics but I ran out of time so I guess they will have to wait till next fall. The basket is already holding fabrics I'm in the process of re~purposing!
I hope I gave some of you some eye candy to enjoy.
