Introducing a new Etsy shop...
She's selling handmade upcycled handbags
that she calls "Pretty Pockets".
They're made from old blue jeans that
would end up in the landfill but still have
some life in their parts...
what adorable pockets and labels
some jeans have! So she decided to save
them from destruction and give them
new life as little shoulder bags.
Great for tossing your wallet in, to
run to the store or when going to your
favorite flea market.
OR for that hard-to-buy-for teen that
needs a little bag for essentials.
Here's a sample of what's on her Etsy
shop:
The Miss Chic Shoulder Bag
(The fleur de lis is made of leather with a bit
of sparkle and the reverse side has flirty
eyebrow fringe and some blingy crystals.)

The Retro Flower Child Shoulder Bag
(A vintage 60's flower pin and
a charm that says "Be Yourself" -
a great message for a teen!)

She has vintage souvenir items such as:
A Souvenir North Dakota Scarf
A Souvenir Lake Sebasticook, Maine Scarf
A Souvenir Alaska The "49" State Scarf
A Souvenir Knott's Berry Farms Scarf
She's also in the process of posting vintage
jewelry and other vintage items on
her new etsy this week!
Hope you'll stop by to visit
when you're in the mood to shop or just
window shop! You're always welcome
to stop by and browse.

ReplyDeleteGood morning dear Sherry & Marie,
ReplyDeleteSince today is Halloween, I wanted to share this little poem with you...
This is Halloween
Goblins on the doorstep,
Phantoms in the air,
Owls on witches' gate posts,
Giving stare for stare.
Cats on flying broomsticks,
Bats against the moon,
Stirring round of fate-cakes,
With a solemn spoon.
Whirling apple parings,
Figures draped in sheets,
Dodging, disappearing,
Up and down the streets.
Jack-o'-lanterns grinning,
Shadows on a screen,
Shrieks and starts and laughter--
This is Halloween!
Happy Halloween and make sure you come by my blog today for my Halloween Bash and see what costumes I dressed you both up in! hehe xoxo
Gorgeous creations!
