Vintage Chic Pet Bed

Just finished these pet beds for Perfectly Charming.  I found some great vintage, down pillows that fit perfect in an old drawer, and VOILA!

Vintage Button Rings

I have been trying to find the time to make these for some time now, and finally was able to put a few together to sell at my shop space.  I absolutely love the necklaces, bracelets and rings that are being made out of old vintage findings!!  I have been collecting lots of treasures to make more of these one of a kind pieces to sell!

Glitter Pumpkin

I made this black glittery pumpkin to sell.  I purchased a papier mache pumpkin that I spray painted black.  When it dried, I brushed on white craft glue and dipped into a bowl of black glitter!  I had to do the top first and let dry before I did the rest of the pumpkin.

Happy Fall!

I have been busy with my mom putting together our flea market and garage sale finds to make "spooky" jars and other fun Halloween items.  I have posted a few pictures here.
Other news:  I recently quit my "day job" and hope to be able to work with my treasures and decorating full time now.  No better time to start than the Holidays!  I have a massive to-do pile of projects to put together for Christmas. (my poor husband)   But, I finally set up a little studio for myself so that I can be inspired by all my vintage trinkets and treasures, and we can now eat at our dining room table again.  I have also opened a shop on Etsy and have loads of items to post.  Stay tuned!
