It’s been awhile since I’ve shared any vintage postcards images, so today I have 5 of them that I found at an antique store recently. They all have blue text and great fonts. These would be wonderful for invitations and announcements, and if printed as wallet size, would make unique gift tags. {right-click on the full size images below, and save to your computer} {MORE PRINTABLE VINTAGE POSTCARDS CAN BE FOUND HERE} Blessings,
Consider the Wildflowers – Photography Printable with Bible verse
May 9, 2015 by 7 Comments
Happy Mother’s Day!! I picked up this pretty red enamelware coffee pot at an antique store last month, and went outside to pick some flowering weeds to put in it. They may only be weeds, but I think they are just as pretty as flowers from a garden, and they are growing prolifically along my gravel road, so I can pick them to my heart’s content! It reminded me of the “consider the wildflowers” verse found in Luke 12:27 NIV {Read More}
1800’s Fashions Summer Gowns
April 27, 2015 by 8 Comments
It used to be a normal thing for me to stay up nearly all night working on projects, but I think I may have crossed some midlife age line, telling me all-nighters are a thing of the past for me. My oldest son and I spent the weekend in Arkansas, where we visited my middle son and they both attended a special college event, then we drove through the night to in order for him to get to his 8 am class {Read More}
A Road Trip and a Church Steeple
April 12, 2015 by 2 Comments
I’m running on about half a brain cell today, because I didn’t get to bed until about 5 in the morning. I made a last-minute decision to go on a little road trip with my son yesterday. He was running in a night race about 5 hours away from our house, so in addition to 10 hours of driving time, we left several hours early so I could hit some antique stores along the way. It’s been awhile since I’ve {Read More}
Antique Telephone Advertisement
March 12, 2015 by 8 Comments
Here’s a wonderful antique telephone advertisement that came from a 1910 The Housekeeper magazine. It would make a wonderful image transfer for a sign (just remember to reverse the image first), or it could be used as-is for decoupage (on laser jet paper, so the ink doesn’t smear). Enjoy! Many more antique advertisements can be found HERE.
Spring Sheet Music Printable

Not that I’m clock-watching or anything, but did you know that it’s only 21 days, 3 hours, 20 minutes and 15 seconds until the first day of Spring? … give or take a few seconds. I adore the Midwest in the fall, summer and spring, but I’d love to just fly south and sit on a beach for the winter. Actually, I take that back. I don’t mind snow and {Read More}
1900’s Royal Baking Powder Advertisement
February 25, 2015 by 9 Comments
I’ve shared several antique baking powder advertisements in the past, and this is another one from the early 1900’s for Royal Baking Powder, from a magazine in my collection. I’d love to get my hands on one of the actual cans! I think this would look wonderful as wall art in the kitchen. Many more antique advertisements like these can be found HERE. Enjoy!
Bee Image Clip Art from McGuffey’s Reader
February 24, 2015 by 3 Comments
Today, I have a charming bee image from an early 1900’s McGuffey’s Reader. The bee is hovering near a vine with blooms on it. It would be perfect for an image transfer project, but for those of you gifted with painting skills, I think it would also be so pretty with watercolors added to the image, for a greeting card or wall art. Here is the complete school book page the image was on – isn’t it cute?! I love {Read More}
Victorian Style Vintage Playing Cards Images
February 17, 2015 by 4 Comments
Today I have 2 wonderful 1800’s style images, featuring a mother with her son, and a matching card with the son and his father. Both images came from vintage playing cards. I love the vivid red and blue colors on them. {CLICK ON IMAGES TO ENLARGE} The mother card has the word “dearest” inside the banner, and the father card says, “The Earl”. I’m also including them without the text, so you can add your own if desired. I removed the text {Read More}
Vintage Style Pantry Labels
February 13, 2015 by 14 Comments
I’m still busy working on organizing my house, and still have a very long way to go, but I decided to focus on my pantry for a bit. I love using glass jars in my pantry, so you can see the contents inside, but I have 3 glass jars filled with powdery white stuff. Now, I can stick my finger in and tell the difference between flour and powdered sugar, but I can’t tell the difference between flour and baking mix, {Read More}
