SALE Reclaimed Vintage Notecard - Souvenir 3 - Was 4.00

Wed, 09 Dec 2009 16:35:20 -0500

$2.00
I was recently given a large ammount of vintage cards and postcards from the 1930's thru the 1960's. They're so dear, as they still have the little notes and old stamps inside and on the back. I wanted to preserve them but also make them useful again so I made these cards. They are made from acid-free archival quality papers that will protect the vintage card mounted on the front. This one features a small white notecard with a tiny black and white post card from an eastern european country on the front. Let a new generation enjoy the designs you remember from your childhood with these lovely reclaimed cards!

Measures 4 by 5 1/2 inches, comes with a matching envelope.

$20.00
Ever had one of those moments when you're trying to hand a cup of hot chocolate to a guest and you have to figure out how to do it without anyone being scalded? You'll never have that problem with these.
A set of 4 off-white hand-crocheted mug cozies keep drinks warm and hands safe. They are made to fit the standard-sized "souvenir mug" which measures 3 inches in diameter and 3 3/4 inches tall with straight sides. They can, however, fit a variety of shapes and sizes easily.
They close with a loop and a red vintage button, mismatched to make it easy to tell which mug belongs to whom. They're also a great way to unite a set of mismatched mugs.
The last picture is my inspiration, I forget which magazine it's from.
