Vintage finds...vintage creations

Breakfast...the writing on the tea string paper "the beauty of life is to experience it yourself"...what a pleasant way to start the morning
(vintage milk glass mug...I love my little collection)

DIY Sweater pillows! oh the savings! oh the look!!

My journeys through vintage shops and thrift store have given me many joys. This plaid blanket being one of them. Its incredible cozy! I have never found a blanket like a stadium blanket that wasn't as rough as sandpaper! So i was thrilled when i came across this one. But not only that it has this amazing pop of super bright orange...fell in love. Price...like $4 love that too!!!
I'm in love with the sweater pillows from places like Pottery Barn but for the price...no way. I was looking through blogs and how to's on pillows and came across some great ideas. Like scarf pillows or vintage buttons details, or using men's woven button down shirts to make pillows. I tried it with sweaters...it worked :) I found some great vintage sweaters and created these. I'm pretty proud. And saved a major buck!
