Vintage Black Friday...

Welcome to Vintage Black Friday!
I wanted to share with you my stash of vintage dominos.
I have been collecting them for awhile,
there isn't a complete set of any,
but I love them anyway!

The colored ones are my favorite!


The backs of them really have alot of texture.
I love the details!
Please stop by the French Cupboard for the complete
list of participants.

If you get a chance stop by her blog and check out her sale of one of a kind creations!
You won't be dissapointed!
I *LOVE* mine!
Thanks Gretchen.

Fan! Tastic!...

Awhile back I participated in the Rococo
Fan Swap hosted by Sonia . My partner was
Debi, we were a good match, we both
love pink! She made the most
gorgeous fan!

She coverd the blades with beautiful
roses cut from wallpaper.
I love all the pretty details in it.

The delicate glitter is just beautiful.
Thank you so much Debi!
This is the fan I sent her. I hear she
was tickled pink!

Sweet and Sinister Swap

My partner for this swap, hosted by Kari
at her Year of Color Blog, was Hope. She had
everything wrapped in vintage sheet music
and black netting!

She sent a very awesome collage package with a
vintage black frame and lots of goodies.


I love the letter brads spelling out
sinister.



She made this beautiful Halloween banner.
I had to lay it in a circle to show the
details in it.




And last she made this wonderful crepe
paper ruffles!
Thank you Hope! You were a great
partner and I love it all!
Please stop over and see Hope
she was a wonderful blog and some
great etsy shops!
