My Vintage Linen, Lace & Tintype Baby Book

 
 
Hi Sweet Friends...
 
 
I have been having so much fun making my
assemblage books out of ANYTHING
I find & love that is vintage!
{look at the cute baby socks}
 
 
This book has sold, but I still wanted to share
some of the images of this Linen & Lace,
fabric book.
 
 
I adore vintage baby & enjoy including a
piece of vintage clothing into my designs.
 
 
It's like a little peek~a~boo when you open up
the baby shirt to find a sweet little baby
photo & some words like...
chirp, chirp, chirp!
 
 
I always include a couple of pockets so that
the owner can add some of their own little
treasures to the book.
 

 
One of the things that made this book so special
was the added embroidered & sequined fabric
& lace I had bought that was originally on an
Edwardian evening gown...
Sew Gorgeous!
 



 
I can't get enough of vintage buttons & doily's
these days. I have many more books to
share with you. 


Enjoy...

'For What It's Worth' & F Scott Fitzgerald's Benjamin Button

{my soldered necklace....'wonder'}

From F Scott Fitzgerald's Short Story & the movie 'Benjamin Button'...
This is one of my ALL time FAVORITE quotes.

"It's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be.
There's no time limit, stop whenever you want.
You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing.
We can make the best or the worst of it.
I hope you make the best of it.
And I hope you see things that startle you.
I hope you feel things you never felt before.
I hope you meet people with a different point of view.
I hope you live a life you're proud of.
If you find that you're not,
I hope you have the strength to start all over again."

For What it's Worth...I'm BACK!  ;)

XOXO
