Repurposed Vintage Cabinet

10/16/2018

0 Comments

 
At the end of the month I will have a space in a gallery for my vintage and handmade items.  I am really excited and I will write a post about it as soon as I have photos to share.  I just finished repurposing this cabinet for display.  I painted it, decoupaged parts of it and, and waxed it.  I can put items in the drawers and change out the vintage clothing to keep it fresh.  I can't wait to see how my new adventure goes!!

Clothespin Bag

I made this clothespin bag out of vintage linen.  When I finished it, I wasn't too excited about it, and decided to embellish it with a little dress I made years ago after I saw one in a magazine.  It's not practical for outside, but it would look cute in a laundry room!

Pocket Sewing Kit

I made this pocket sewing kit out of a piece of antique quilt my sister gave me.  I am fascinated with the antique soldier's "housewife" kits that were made in the middle of the 18th century.

Collaging With Vintage Materials

10/3/2018

This is one of those days when I just started pulling out materials and let my creativity take over.  As you know, I love buttons!  I decided to make a couple of buttons cards, and that turned into making a large card that can be mailed or given as a gift.  Then I started adding collaged materials onto an envelope.  These are a few of the projects I created.
