Fun Finds and Some Help

Aren't these cute stamps?
Over 25 years old used by local teacher.
The one on the bottom right says
'Felix's Magic Bag' whatever that means.
And then one poor ol' letter 'M' all by itself.
Look horrible, but still work great.
Did you notice how many negative stamps there are? =(
These are about 1 1/4" tall stamped and are available.
Fun hardware finds.
They are little twist locks I think.Wouldn't they be fun screwed across a piece
of wood to hang jewelry from?
New fun items from the store.
Tiny vials with watch parts in them. (vials only 1 1/4" long)
Have empty ones too if anyone is interested.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here is my need help question:

I have this sewing machine cabinet.

It has places for three drawers on each side.
I have placed some treasures in the empty spaces for display.
What I am wondering is, should I just take the drawer frames off??
They just unscrew from the base.
Can you think of anything to use them for?
On or off the machine?
Finally today, here is a page out of an old primer.
What do you think she's doing with that poor dog?

thanks all and blessings

Fun Finds & a Little Rusty Love


Here is a little pile of treasures from
the flea market last week.

I love that baby picutre.
It's an old cover from a magazine all framed up.

OOOH. Fuzzy. sorry.
These are for putting letters on leather, like punches.
At least that is what the guy told me.
I thought they'd be cool just sitting around.
Hmmm. Should I rust them???

And love this silver creamer.
Tarnished to perfection, and love the base of it,
and swirly design around edge.
Aren't these little glass drawers sweet?
I got two of hem. They were drawers out of a spice cabinet.
England?? Think that is what she said.


And these are some staples my sweet fella took out of
some fence boards we used.
Surely could not throw those away. They were rusty you know. =)
So, what to do with them?

Spell love of course!!!!
Any other ideas???
You can see I have a few. =)

Blessings, and thank you so much for coming by.
