Vintage Love Market for 3/5/11

Happy Saturday! I was hoping to hit a few yard sales tomorrow and was looking forward to all of the yard sellers to start bringing their wares out for the picking. The last few weeks of warm temperatures has brought forth lots of blooms from jonquils, yellow bells, and flowering trees. Not too hot and not too cool. Perfect temps for treasure hunting weather. But, the damper is rain in the forecast for tomorrow. And just as I thought that Spring was here we have a cold spell and now it's in the 40's. So are we thru with winter or are we not?

Anyway, I hope you will jump in and share your vintage finds! Just click on the linky tool below and paste the url to your vintage find in the link and follow the remaining prompts. And if you don't mind, please help spread the word!

Please include a courtesy link back to this post so that others who visit your site can join in here if they would like to participate or visit others who are participating
I love Southern Living holiday books. This one is Christmas with Southern Living 1983 and contains all kinds of wonderful decorating ideas for the holidays both inside and outside of the home, easy holiday crafts, recipes, gift ideas, confections, party fare, pies, patterns and more!

I thought that these cute little vintage hand loomed Christmas placemats would look great as part of the Christmas tablesetting!

And lastly, I know I showed it to you this week for Southern Lady's Market Monday, but I have to show this Christmas snowflake afghan again!

PS... notice that the little voter is not on the left hand side bar?? Well, for the remainder of this year I thought I would give us a bit of a break from blogging and an opportunity to advertise some of our vintage items for sale! So next week, please come back and you are welcome to add a link for a vintage item that you have for sale or if you want to do a blog post about something vintage you are welcome to do that too! We'll see how it goes and go from there. OK?

I hope you will join in and share your vintage Christmas items! I can't wait to see!! Link in below!

Announcing Vintage Love Saturday's Theme for November 27, 2010

Are you ready??? It's almost here! Vintage Love Saturday's theme this week is vintage Christmas! Hope to see you on Saturday! Get your blog post ready and those photos taken and come back to join in!

Christmas Snowflake Afghan

Isn't this hand crocheted Christmas snowflake afghan wonderful? I know that it must have taken many, many hours to hand crochet this beauty! It is large enough to cover a full size bed and hang over the mattress top a few inches on each side, so it is a great size! Red and white makes a great punch of color at Christmas and any other time of the year! I'm sharing this item as a part of Southern Lady's Market Monday. You should join in too! You can link in your item for free today! Lots of folks join in each week! Why not you?? Hurry and link in!

Vintage Samsonite Train Case and Upcycled Cottage Style Keepsakes Case

This week for Vintage Love Saturday I thought that I would give you all a break from voting on a theme and just let you all just post about anything vintage that you would like to post about! Whether it's something from your family's history that has been around for a long, long time or a cool vintage find that you lucked up on or even a not so great find that you repurposed into something else! It's your choice!

One of the reasons that I love to hunt for vintage finds is because first off, I LOVE the HUNT! Secondly I am also a crafter and I often find some things that I can upcycle, recycle or give a makeover.

I often look for vintage luggage and boxes or cases. This pretty Samsonite train case was one that I found, cleaned up and am offering up for sale just as it is. Vintage luggage is great storage and so I figure that if I end up not wanting to sell it, I can use it for storage around the house or I can upcycle it if I get the crafting bug!!

For instance, I found an old, dark wood case. (Sorry, I didn't take the "before" photo!) I thought it would give it a bit of a cottage style home decor look if I painted it white and added some little hand painted roses and other little details! I thought that it would make a great little overnight case or a nice little keepsakes case!
So now my cottage style roses case has a completely different look!

What do you want to share today? Link up your blog post below and remember to include a link back to this blog post as a courtesy to those who might like to join in!!

PS....while you are here please help spread the word by clicking on the little social networking buttons below to automatically tweet, facebook or blog this post! Many thanks!

PSS......for next Saturday's theme I thought it might be nice to celebrate kicking off the season with Vintage Christmas goodies! So be thinking and gathering up your idea(s), photos, etc. and get ready for next Saturday!

Remember Donna Parker?

This week's theme for Vintage Love Saturday was voted to be vintage children and young adults.

From the late 50's thru the 60's Marcia Martin, author, wrote seven-volume series of young adult books about a girl named Donna Parker who lives with her family about two hours away from New York City in a town called Summerfield.



Mystery at Arawak was written in 1962. Donna Parker takes a summer job at Camp Arawak and quickly gets involved in the mysteries there.

A Spring to Remember was written in 1962. Donna is enjoying her last year of junior high school but there is an event that will change her whole outlook and Ricky's life forever.

Vintage China

Welcome to Vintage Love Saturday! This week's voted theme was vintage china! All you have to do to participate in this blog party is to do a post about vintage china (20 years or older) on your blog and link in at the bottom of this post. Please include a courtesy link back to this post so that visitors of your blog can come back and join in if they would like to participate! Then visit around and meet some of the participating bloggers! It's a great way to network with others who love vintage!

I wish that I could tell you that I have my Mother's or my Grandmother's china sweetly tucked away to bring out on special occassions, but I do not. But I do love vintage china and whenever I find a piece I usually purchase it. I wonder about the family gatherings that old pieces of china have seen. Most times I just find a piece or two. Here are just a few of the pieces that I have found along the way.

This is Wedgwood Cornflower pattern. I love the rich colors in this pattern. I bet it was beautiful on an autumn tablescape! If you are in need of the above pattern it is currently available in my shop. Just click on the photo and it will take you there!

And this pattern is Wedgwood Tigris, a beautiful china pattern with a USA patent being 1922. Perfect for the blue and white kitchen!

Lefton China Violets Chintz
This beautiful pattern is currently available in my shop. Click the photo if you are interested.

Ok, I could show you more, but I am anxious to see what YOU have, so jump on in! Don't forget to vote for next week's theme while you are here!

Vintage Vera Tablecloths

Welcome to Vintage Love Saturday for October 23, 2010! I was thrilled when this week's chosen theme was voted to be vintage linens! I love vintage linens and have been collecting them for years. Not only do I love the handiwork of all of the hand crocheted doilies, tablecloths and runners and all of the pretty hand embroidered linens that I find, but I also love the beautiful bright colors of the vintage tablecloths.

One of my favorites of the vintage linens that I collect are those of Vera Neumann. I am going to share with you a few of my vintage Vera tablecloths and napkins from my personal collection. I love the bold beautiful color and design of Vera Neumann!


Pretty Vera Yellow Tulips tablecloth and napkins. Similar but notice the different Vera signature marks.

This is the signature mark on the tulips tablecloth.



And this is the signature on the napkins. The ladybug is missing.


Spring Song by Vera! Love the bold color!

You may want to check out my vintage resources page for links that I have gathered. There are some great links for dating your vintage Vera textiles and linens and also some other great links for care of vintage linens!

I can't wait to see what you have to show us all! So, click below and join in with your blog post and please remember to leave a courtesy link back to this blog post so that other visitors to your blog can link back here and join in on the fun!
