Vintage Printables for Your Walls

I had to share my 2 favorite sites for vintage printables and graphics...

Print them at home... email them to a copy center. Frame them...decoupage them to something! Have fun!

VintagePrintable.com

Check out this ad I found over at The Graphics Fairy !

The bicycle first caught my eye...but then the name of the wheel makers stopped me in my tracks! Apparently there's wheel makers on my husbands side of the family! I am thinking of actually paying to get this printed off huge, and making a big vintage sign out of it!

Stirring...

Sorry peeps...it's been too long.

I was the lucky recipient last week of a nasty cold, which is really a downer on productivity.

But I'm feeling better, and ready to get back at it.

Needing, um I mean wanting, a wreath for my lovely front door...my decision to "stir" as much as I can of what I already have...resulted in this:

All I used was some of my dried leaves from another dried arrangement I no longer wanted. Some sticks and dried naturals I already owned. An old wood frame. My trusty staple gun. In under one hour I was done. YEAH!

What's Better Than Cheap?

FREE...of course!
I love decorating with old books and am always on the lookout for them...look at what I found at the public library the other day...free books!

I always am on the lookout for an interesting title and coloring. Perhaps something I can change out seasonally. But, what if they have a title I don't want to display?

I just turn them around...the simplicity of the cream pages and the variation of cover colors are beautiful. Sometimes you have to peak under a dust jacket to see the possibility, but once it's home just take that dust jacket off.

Stack them on a shelf horizontally or vertically or put them under something to elevate it.

Check out your local library for a free section...if you can't find one, ask the librarian what happens to the old books they no longer want...you may find some treasures!

Pretty Names

I wish I had graphic design skills...but some days I can barely get Microsoft Word to work right...thankfully there are much more skilled people than me sharing what they know! Here's what I did in just a couple minutes! Think of the possibilities...stickers...tags...stationary... Go here to make your own! Just do a search for your name in the top right corner...even if they don't have your name (they didn't have Ella) I was still able to "suggest" a name.

Spring Is In The Air...

I'm a list maker...usually...it helps me free up valuable brain space. Sometimes there is so much to remember I think my head is going to spin right off of my neck...but if I can write it down, I don't have to worry about remembering! And a pretty piece of paper to write that list on... pretty and useful...it couldn't get much better...oh but it can...add free to the list!
