What a fantastic topic. I, for one, am horrible with posture. So much so that my back will actually hurt at week's end because of my tendency to slouch at my desk.
As we speak I'm in horrible form here at work! I really need to get a girdle :)
This is something I definitely need to work...
Oh I am envious of you ladies!!!!
Such beautiful rings! Fabulous ideas for when I meet that special guy...again...oh dear!
For those of you have vintage rings that aren't family heirlooms, where did you find your beautiful rings?
Mine doesn't....it's cloth (old school...my Mom gave it to me).
I picked up a regular inch/cm one at WalMart this weekend. Now all I have to do is set up my sewing machine and try it out! :)
I've been reading on here a bit how long everyone goes between washings. I wash every day otherwise I get so overwhelmingly oily and gross. I wish I could go longer between washings!
I wash and set at night (though I let my hair dry first)...I do have poofiness in the AM. I found this...

I know that my feet swell by the end of the day...never thought to try on shoes at that point! It also depends a lot on how my day goes (if I'm on my feet all day, at my desk, etc.).
I have a discrepancy between my feet as well...my right foot is bigger than my left. Sometimes I will try on...
Hello crafty ladies!
I'm fairly new to sewing, but as I'm on a limited budget I'd really like to try to make my own vintage style designs. My question is: to try these lutterloh patterns, do I have to invest in a lutterloh tape measure or is there a way to use the patterns sans expensive...

I've been lurking around for awhile, finally decided to join so I could chime in!
I'm 29 and currently reside in the old mining town of Jerome, AZ. While I've always been into the rockabilly scene, I'm now going towards a more authentic vintage experience.
