Nutcracker Holiday

I decided to display my Vintage Nutcracker collection with a ReCycled/ ReDesign flair this year. I found this Vintage Library Ladder at a Tag Sale in the Fall and knew immediately what I would do! I think that they look very Regal.



I bartered this Fabulous Tiered Stand from my friend Gail. She is a very talented ReCycler/ReDesigner too. I have a chair that she did that I use at my desk. I dressed the pedestal with a Vintage Russian Scarf that I purchased when I was in Russia (at the time it was the Soviet Union) I love how the bright colors accent the colors of the Nutcrackers.

At the top are the characters from the Nutcracker Ballet.
I am sharing this on Funky Junk Interiors.

Victorian Fan Card

This is a pretty delicate Victorian Fan Image from a Vintage card. Enjoy.

Wedding Memories Wreath

How do you capture all those memories from your perfect day. Try a custom made Memory Wreath from JMG Design.


This wreath has clusters of flowers that were originally on the Wedding cake and Pew Bows.

This is one of the Wedding Favors made by the Bride's Grandmother. Also there is one of the custom Designed Monograms by JMG Design.

One of the Save the Date cards and a piece from the Invitation.

The memorabilia is pinned with pearl pins and can be changed or added to when ever the couple wishes. Pictures from the Honeymoon, 1st Anniversary can also be added.

This is truley a great way to ReCycle the elements from your special day.

Bee Art

Print this one on parchment and create Instant Art. This would look great with last weeks Apiary image.

I found another Vintage Apiary piece with Bees. Click, Print, Frame. So Easy.

St Louis Map

I found this Fun Vintage Map of my hometown St Louis. I thought it would be fun to share for all the Cards Fans.

Big Cats

I found a great Vintage Animal Images Book when I was picking yesterday. First up are two Big Cats. Since Animal Prints are en Vogue I thought I would start with a Tiger and a Leopard. These would look fantastic copied on to parchment, hand colored and framed or scanned on to fabric to create pillows bordered with matching animal print fabric.
