Tiny Collectibles

Thought I'd post a pic of some small things I have collected - a tiny metal vase with shell flowers, a petite chalkware frame, tiny cup, pink jeweled box, a tiny shaker that I use for stickpins, and a tramp art tin chair....

Mid Century Modern Dollhouse Furniture

I found some old mid century modern dollhouse furniture, painted it charcoal gray, added cushions and decoupaged the coffee table with an image from The Graphics Fairy.

Embellished Bottles

I just completed these two embellished bottles.  They were so fun to do.  I pulled from my stash of vintage laces, images and jewelry findings.  I really need to use this stuff to get my inventory down..

Farmhouse Style Storage Box

My latest project is a vintage wood box upcycle. I painted the box, then distressed it slightly.  I decoupaged it with pretty farmhouse style papers and the cow image from The Graphics Fairy.  The box was then sealed with spray sealer and the metal knob added to the top.  Use it to store your vintage findings, trinkets, charger cords, whatever you like.  I am adding it to my Etsy shop.

Summer's End


A few of the last rosebuds from my garden, placed in vintage glass bottles on my kitchen window sill.

Latest Find - A Vintage Doll Bed

This wooden dollbed has the most wonderful chippy blue-green paint. I discovered it in a disassembled pile. All pieces were there except for the wooden slat as a base for a mattress, which my husband cut out and put in place, then added screws.
