Bow tie Necklaces and Bakers Twine

{ bow tie necklace }

Recently, I found a collection of 1950's vintage bow ties. Now, they are lovely necklaces that still have the bow tie clip. By removing the necklace chain, your boyfriend/husband can wear it too. Isn't it cool?

Check the collection of bow tie necklaces here! I will be listing a few more in the next couple of days.



{ chunky bakers twine }


I love baker's twine and finally found one chunky enough to adorn my packages. It is so pretty that I now have it available in my shop.

Ideas:
1. Adorn gift packages and tags.
2. Hang your Christmas tree ornaments.
3. Give as gift.
4. Knit or crochet.
5. Scrapbook.
6. Embellish wedding or birthday favors.
7. Card making.
8. Hang paper or fabric bunting.
9. Decorate a box full of homemade cookies or cupcakes.
10. St Valentines Day crafts.


Have a cheerful holiday season!

Freshly sewn! . . . Buntings and Pillows



After moving to my new home, I wanted to make a bunting and pillow to decorate my new sewing studio. I couldn't stop making them and made a few for the shop!

All of them were made with vintage finds. Aren't they pretty?
