My Love of Vintage Photos!




For several years now I have been collecting vintage photos from my very favorite decade, the 1940's , my sister thinks it's so weird, but i love everything about the 1940's. I wonder who they were?  What were their names? Are they still living? and most of all what were there stories?

Rid-Jid Ironing Board

I bought an old Rid-Jid ironing board at Goodwill for $3.00 about a year ago, i finally got around to fixing her up! i still need to get some rust remover for a few areas, but she cleaned up nicely!





I purchased the polka dot ironing board cover and a new ironing boad pad from City Chic County Mouse on Etsy, they also have some pretty clothes pin bags i would like to have.

Waiting for Spring!

I am so ready for winter to be over...my new leopard print sandals from Boden are ready to see the sunshine!

Valentines Continued...


My new Cath Kidston Apron.... LOVE LOVE LOVE!


I found these UNUSED and COMPLETE over 50 year old valentine books on Etsy.


On the back cover of one is this game, pin the heart on the apron....LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!!!!!



I still can't believe they are totally uncut after all these years!! I wanted to make something out of them, but changed my mind, i just can't cut them up.

Valentines Day Wreath



My new valentine wreath i made.  I so love holidays!! It's very simple to make i bought a simple wreath form at the Dollar Tree and tied 5 different ribbons around it, it took exactly 4 spools, each, of the 5 different ribbons, and Voila! you have a simple, cheap, beautiful wreath!
