Vintage Charm

Well, Spring is in full swing here and the weather has been beautiful! Doesn't it make you want to dive into some lovely magazines and get some inspiration? I came across a gorgeous publication, Creating Vintage Charm magazine, and editor Sonia Crouse was so sweet to include an item from my shop in the Market Place section of their May, 2013 issue.

You can view samples of previous issues or order your own at Creating Vintage Charm Magazine

And, to celebrate spring, I ordered a shipment of fresh French lavender and my whole house smells like heaven. I am working on some very pretty, shabby chic sachets which will be available in my shop very soon.

I absolutely love these sachets. I used premium grade lavender and several different Rachel Ashwell fabrics to create these gorgeous decorative sachets. I will be listing these, and many more new items in the next few months, so don't forget to stop by! Enjoy your Spring!!!

Vintage Inspired French Lavender Sachets

 Spring is on it's way and I will be listing some new french lavender sachets that not only smell fantastic, but are beautiful as well. I like to take a handful of them and display them together in a decorative container. I love the way they add a little pop of color while scenting my room at the same time.

Happy New Year!!!!

Well, I have been a terrible blogger. I have had a very busy holiday season, and am ready to get back to business!!!! I thought I would get back into the swing of things by posting a freebie. Valentine's Day will be here before you know it, so I thought I would share some beautiful vintage Valentine images. I hope you will make something beautiful with them.

New Supplies, New Items!!

Summer is in full swing here and it has been almost impossible to keep cool, but I have been busy gathering new supplies, making new items, and designing some new products! I was very excited to receive my shipment of  beautiful Cath Kidston paper which I purchased from my good friend at Sugar Pink Boutique.
I love the colors and beautiful floral designs. I also have been working on new bunting banners and will be listing them soon.
Enjoy your summer and stop by again for a fun DIY tutorial I will be posting soon!
