Vintage Witches Photographs



I love Halloween and old Halloween witch photgraphs. Halloween has always been a fun holiday for my family. No stress

Also, I met my husband at a Halloween costume party. That was a fun party!

There is an old Halloween saying that goes like this "What you are for Halloween you will be for the year to come". That year I dressed as a white fairy but I looked like a bride. Hmmm, I think it worked. This year we will be married 25 years.

This collage sheet titled Vintage Witch Photograph is a collection of some of my favorite Halloween witch images. It is available on my web site @ www.printablevintagepapers.com.

What is Flea Market Archeology


Finding little pieces of the past and put them together to create a piece of art.
This weekend I found a huge aqua pin, old chain necklaces, chandelier drops and a wonderful old bottle. These articles blend beautifully. Don't you think!?

A Summer Batch of Buttons


A Batch Of Summer Buttons and Trim
This is a big lot of my red white and blue themed vintage supplies that I just added to my Etsy shop. Remember grandmas button box? She always removed the buttons on a garment before she made it into something else. I left the bottons just as I found them. Old threads and all.

Altered Vintage Bottles



I have been working on these bottles and finishing them up this week. The shiny silver one still needs a black patina finish. I have so much fun working with vintage witch photographs. They are hard to find and I am always on the lookout for them.
