Hi Everybody! It's time for the Vintage Alphabet get-together. This month's letter is 'B'. Now, I have my Vintage Alphabet post up already. As you'll see my theme is 'B'ottle 'B'rush Trees, 'B'rooches, and of course 'B'irdhouses, you can show off your vintage 'B'arbie's, 'B'uttons, 'B'read boxes, 'B'rown transferware, 'B'lenko Glass, 'B'akelite, 'B'etty Boop.......these are just a few examples of whatever your vintage collection includes that begins with a 'B'. Mr. Linky is available below so you can join in. Just go to the link above. Remember you have plenty of time .....we'll leave this up for the week, so everyone has time to join the fun!!

The Gift of Giving....

I love purchasing from Etsy!!!! The ladies and gentlemen on Etsy know how to present their products to you. It feels like Christmas each time I receive my order. The box (or bag in this case) is usually wrapped up in beautiful tissue paper. Then you have the box or bag to open, usually with a beautiful stamp or ribbon closing it. When you finally get to the items, they are also featured on a beautiful paper or nesting in the box. Taking the time to present their goods, you know they love what they are doing. So much pride and love put into their little store!

Thanks Etsy and its vendors!

Valentine ~ You Won My Heart....

My Valentine ATC inspired me to make this Chatter Knob Hanger. I found this vintage photograph of a soldier and I took a old bingo card to create this wonderful piece.

It was hard to get a good picture and if you are wondering what the drippings are ...

It is BEESWAX!!!

I love to use it to finish off my pieces!

It will be on my ETSY soon.

Erma Bombeck "Family" Chatter Knob Hanger...

Another Chatter Knob Hanger~

This one about the Family with a Erma Bombeck quote!

I had fun with my new sewing machine stitching away!

I also finished this one with a layer of beeswax, one of my favorite finishes!

It hopefully will be listed on Etsy tomorrow!
