I Love Aqua!




You all know that I love Pink...Obviously!! But, I have a equal love for AQUA!
We went junking a while back in another town, and I found this Fabulous Aqua Chiffon Nightie Set at Salvation Army. I was immediately drawn to the Dreamy Color!
This looks to be from the 60's, around the Doris Day, (another FAV), era.

After a good soaking and fresh air drying, I thought I might list her in my LPT shop on Etsy, but I don't know...I just LOVE the COLOR! I might have to keep her in my "hang it on the wall" collection!

Welcome New Friend!


I found this darling "earless elephant" vintage stuffed toy on Etsy and just had to get her! This is a pic of Ellie and her new vintage friends I've collected from Etsy and Thrift stores along the way. They had a "Jelly Bean Party" for Ellie!
(she's the third from the left)
Silly? That's fine with me!
The seller is storibookvintage on Etsy!

Sewing with an Old Lady


My DD and I were poking around in our storage building & found this Old Lady! We've been playing with and sewing with her all afternoon! She weighs a ton! But she stitches beautifully!

I have a treadle machine that sews wonderfully as well but I couldn't get the cabinet in my car along with my thrift finds, DD and Shih Tzu today. I think I might go get it though & use it in my Diva Do classes this fall! Check my Diva Do blog with the link on the right.

My daughter wants to use the Old Lady to make Blythe clothes!
