I think Vintage Betty hit this one right on. Nothing over the top, nothing showy. This is his event, and you're there to support him. Congrats to you both!
If this isn't allowed, please feel free to remove it, but for any one looking to expand or start their collection of buttons - vintage or otherwise - I highly recommend Etsy. The prices are reasonable and the sellers are usually clearing out their own personal stashes which means the buttons...

Thanks! I've actually seen a couple floating around on Etsy in the vintage listings...I wanted something festive, but not strictly Christmas...pine cones know no season! lol
Ok, you've inspired me to take a look and see what could be found on Etsy. God Bless Etsy!
I don't think these are too terribly vintage as I saw a lot of shops had them listed, but I was hypnotized by their swirliness...
...and how could you resist the charm of these little crows...
Some recent purchases...
I've become quite addicted to pins and brooches - I've picked these three up over the last few weeks...
And this one is an early birthday present to myself :)
True, to some it may seem extravagant with the current state of the economy, but I see it differently - you were making memories for your family, and most of all your parents. You can't put a price tag on something like that. Well done, Miss Betty! :eusa_clap
:)
Just a couple things...
I've made lots of things in the last few months, but these are all I have photos of at the moment...
Some tasty treats for co-workers and friends - chocolate covered marshmallows to stir your hot cocoa with!
And I designed my Aunt & Uncle's Christmas cards this...
Wow-whee!
Gosh, I haven't been here in a LOOOONNNNNGGG time!
LD - what lucky friends and family you have to receive such a thoughtful gift!
Miss Dottie - I LOVE those cute little towels!!
Inky - thanks for posting those links - I can't wait to take the time to really look through them!
How exciting! Thanks to the lovely Vintage Betty for organizing this fun experience and a chance for us Loungettes to meet up as we hand-off the hat. It was a pleasure and a treat to participate and I hope we can do something like this again in the near future!
Have horrible dreams, darlings!
I was going for Vampira (original horror hostess & vampire girl in Plan 9 from Outer Space), but couldn't get the eyebrows figured out with the limited resources I had...so this will have to do...
Left to Right: killer cousin (not sure what he was supposed...
Ooh, what a lovely wreath Lauren!
Recently I've made:
Owl/Autumn Leaves Pillow...
Autumn Leaves Necklace & Earring Set...
And a booklet of autumn quotes and poetry...
These were all for a craft swap I did on Craftster.org - the theme was "I Love Fall!"...and I do! :)
