Nothing Beats Vintage
Like Dawn at "Bohemian Valhalla" I too have an obsession for dressforms. I love vintage clothing also. Old wedding dresses, etc... Now these were one of a kind treasures. Old prom dresses are a favorite also. This dressform is one of mine. I have sold the others reluctantly. Off to my booth to paper walls and add some new. It's going to be around 70 degrees today. Oh happy day! judy

Chippy Is A Good Thing
I don't know what the facination with chippy old things is. The wood chair in the top photo is on my porch. The red can and green school bench are also mine. Don't you just love the little kid chairs on the blue porch? This was taken at a neighborhood called old town Rockwall, Texas. I did not have the good camera on me that day. Have a chippy day. judy

I Heart Hearts
I love the Valentine holiday because their are so many beautiful things that can be used all year round. Saw these and just loved the french words with the silver. It's a beautiful day here. Started at 25 degrees but now 43. Still not tops after the stomache thing last week. But pushing to feel better.

Vintage Purses
It's amazing to me how these pretties have stood the test of time. They seem so fragile. They hang on my wall so I can see them everyday. If they could only tell where they have been.
