More Sweet Stacks for Sweet Creativity



Cotton Candy Creativity Stacks. Here is more Sweet Stacks of Creative Sparks for you to enjoy!

Imagine the possibilities with gorgeous vintage papers and emphemera like this. Simply endless.

Its so fun to rummage through some one else's belongings isn't it? A passtime I've enjoyed since at the very earliest the age of 5. I would be thrilled when someone passes on (not literally) a large trunk full of vintage goodies or the thrill of the catch when you move into a new home and find all those left behind treasures. I'd take on 15 different personalities in on one play date. Pearls and clasp purses, ear bobs and stiff dresses, old fans, and the almighty sewing case complete with half darned socks. That my friend is the start of a life long love affair, as I have with Old But Beautiful ~things.

Do you go to yard sales? I've found some pretty nice stuff at those. Unlike antique shops people who put on yard sales don't always know the stuff is worth money so you can find some great deals!

it is fun to rummage! Check out my shop dustydrawers.etsy.com - I've got some rummaged things there. I really like how you put things together - that must be fun.

Since we started the photography gig I don't have as much time for the rummaging I used to love. That doesn't mean the bug is gone, however...antique shops, yard sales, thrift stores, oh yes, that's fun stuff to be sure!
