Sharing my passion
I love Vintage illustrations. Especially those from children's books and magazines. I also love crafting using these vintage illustrations. For years I've been making mixed media cards and pictures. I found a passion in going to sales (auctions and estate sales) to find damaged books and magazines to use in my creating. One man's trash became my cherished treasures. Soon I had more "goodies" than I'd ever be able to use - and my Etsy story began. I love sharing my found treasures with others.
Each of my customers is special, and I want them to know that. I take great pride in listing my items honestly. I take even greater pride in packaging and shipping their purchases. Each order includes one of my homemade cards with a hand-written note inside. I also include a homemade bookmark, and each book order includes a homemade bookplate. My packages are wrapped in wallpaper, with is sturdy and decorative. My customers say it's like finding a present in the mail.
