Cottage & Family [Search results for vintage purse] 

The other day I was in at Lone Star Antique Mall

and found (at Bountiful ) this most precious purse filled with

shredded vintage paper and a sweet vintage photograph ~

I just adore it so it is going in my bedroom that is

going to be transformed after the hub bub of Christmas ~

I am loving transferring images to fabric

so today I washed some muslin bags to

make them look wonderfully crinkly and then

added some crowns ~

Also the other thing that I just love lately

is shredded vintage paper ~

How cute it is in so many things just like the purse ~

I will have some for sale soon .... just because it is fun !

So I just looked at my clock on my

computer and it is only 8:30 and

I am sleepy ~ What is up with that !

When does the time change again ??

Last night I got to go

to Lisa's house for a

Christmas crafting night ~ It is

so much fun to get together with

people who "get" the same stuff that

you do ~

Her house was recently in the

Dallas Morning News with some

beautiful pictures of her holiday decor ~

Well needless to say I knew that

I would pretty much not get any crafting

done because I really wanted to

look at all of her beautiful

Christmas decorating and awesome

vintage vignettes everywhere ~

Here are just a few of them ~

~ this is above the bathtub ~

~ over a doorway ~

~ this is the top of her headboard

with a mirror above it ~

It ended up that everyone pretty

much admired her home in awe, ate, chatted

and watched Charlene make

a necklace for Lisa out of some

of Lisa's vintage finds ~

( Lisa, Charlene & Cindy )

I have been wanting to make a

necklace with an old coin purse

for awhile so it was really fun to watch ~

Right before we left Cindy

had Lisa autograph her copy

of the newspaper ❤ ~

We were totally goofing around

with having her sign the paper

just because it was too fun ~

You've gotta love crafting with friends!
