More of my gift bags

I really enjoy making these little gift bags.  The first batch sold out right away from my booth in Merchant Square.  Here are the three that I took into my booth yesterday for sale.

Here the first Paris bag.  Cute dress form image surrounded by roses.  I added vintage laces, trims and rayon ribbons.  The bit in the corner is an old petit point earring on top of a bit of an old doily.

Here's a different dress form image.  On the top are vintage appliques, mother-of-pearl buttons and an old pearl earring.

Lastly is this bag with a "Costumer" image on it topped with lace, trim and a vintage pin.

All three are available in my booth at Merchant Square right now.

Flea market finds on Saturday

Last Saturday was the flea market at Merchant Square. They are having a big 4 day sale there. I have been there everyday since Wednesday, and I am tired! But I wanted to share a few bits I got at the flea market. I love the old roses wrapped in mink! And they are vintage corsages -- all of these items are vintage. The bit of mink on the left would make great bracelets -- which I see a lot of these days on blogs. Don't know what to put on them, but maybe I'll have a brainstorm in a few days. They would also make great display pieces for vintage jewelry. Hmm! Perhaps I will try that!

At the top right are a pair of vintage earrings. The tag said they were Swarovski crystal. They are glitzy! There is a pretty pin at the bottom left. It is missing a pin back, but that is an easy fix. Much to do to keep the booth at Merchant Square stocked with pretty things.
