Treasures I found.....
Love kitchen gadgets and cookbooks.
Got about 13 of these McCalls Cookbooks.
They are from the 70's, and in perfect condition.
Paid $1.00 each. More than I would usually pay,
but I think they are worth it.
They are going in the store.

Love these. Not sure what to do with them yet.
Maybe just leave them as is and let someone else figure it out. =0)
Any ideas??
Now junkin' to find another unique piece for my nests.
Maybe for the giveaway!!
(see below for link).

My first ever baby shoe pin cushion.
I pictured it last week, but did not want anyone to miss seeing it. =-)
(shameful isn't it?) =-)

Decided the pink ribbon was too much.
Putting something else on instead.
(tea stained ribbon? Lace bow?).
Frantically looking for more baby shoes to 'antique'!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A 'new' nest art piece....
(and another shoe nest)
Altered by rain.
Yes. Left it too close to edge of patio when I sprayed it.
Can you believe that old music paper turned green?
And it matches the green I had painted the eggs.
Weird huh?
Wonderful accident!!

And here are two blue pics for you from 2006.

I absolutely adore the nest in the old coffee grinder. That could have come straight out of a French barn, complete with real nest and eggs. Totally authentic.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you've linked into every Monday meme! Happy Blue Monday.
ReplyDeleteHi Barb, The things with the scrollwork at the top, I can it done with the insert made up like your frames with a nest and bird or maybe do the spray chalkboard to the insert, and then do it up with your music sheets and bird and nest..

Hi Barbara Jean! LOVE the sweet photo of you and your granddaughter!.. and I like all the kitchen cookbooks and gadgets too! I have a few cookbooks like these, from my grandmother. I refused to part with them before the "big bad move"! I just love them! Happy Blue Monday to you! ~tina
ReplyDeleteYour designs are beautiful. Happy Blue Monday.
ReplyDeleteMine is here.
I love the frames, I think a family picture would look good on that with just a little bit of polishing.
ReplyDeleteMy son said That's so gross, find out why.
You are so good with those stuff.
