This gorgeous framed image showing a variety of musical instruments came from an early 1900’s dictionary. I have several more framed images from this dictionary that I’ll be sharing in the future. {Click on the Images to Enlarge} This is the original image and I removed the wording and darkened the center in the image above, so you can add your own text. I think it would make a beautiful printed label. Have you used one of my antique images {Read More}

January 7, 2014 by 22 Comments
Welcome to Knick of Time Tuesday! Brrr…brrr…brrr! It is insanely cold in my neck of the woods, as it is across much of the country today. I went outside for just a few minutes to get something out of my workshop and my fingers were about numb when I came back in the house. But, let’s forget the cold for a few minutes though and warm up with some of the best vintage inspiration around! There were SO many {Read More}

DIY Primitive Cabinet from a Repurposed Wooden Crate and Frame
January 6, 2014 by 31 Comments
I love it when you make something and it turns out exactly as you envisioned it. I’ve been wanting to make a primitive style wall cupboard for awhile. I wanted something that I could openly display things inside, and wanted to use metal mesh I already had on hand inside the door. I didn’t want to buy new wood to do it. I knew it would cost less to wait until I came across something old and cheap and would {Read More}

Repurposed Antique Pages in Vintage Gold Frames & More New Year’s Goals
January 4, 2014 by 6 Comments
I think New Year’s resolutions have gotten a bad rap. Yes, I know many, if not most people don’t stick with them, but I don’t see any harm in attempting positive changes in your life. It’s better than no attempt at all. Even if you give up after one week, I don’t look at that as a failure. I see it as a small success to use as a stepping stone to try again – and succeed for two weeks {Read More}
Repurposed Sewing Machine Table Creations, a Tip to “Age” Painted Wood, and New Year’s Resolutions
January 3, 2014 by 20 Comments
Last month I brought home an antique sewing machine on a stand from an auction. The stand was badly damaged and one of the drawers were missing, but I could see a lot of potential with the various parts, so I bid on it and won. My husband disassembled it all, and I started brainstorming projects I would make with the pieces. I haven’t come up with uses for all the parts, but I thought I’d share a few I’ve {Read More}
Repurposed Clock Gears Wall Art
January 2, 2014 by 9 Comments
If you’ve followed me for any length of time, you know I have a passion for clocks. I’m not talking about the digital or battery-operated variety – those are just a necessary “evil”. They lack beauty and elegance, and they certainly don’t have as many lovely parts as an old time piece does. Aged cases, clock faces, and the gears inside are what make my tick-tock loving heart skip a beat. You may or may not remember this clock that I gave {Read More}
Farewell 2013 – HELLO 2014! Vintage Clock Face Printable
December 31, 2013 by 6 Comments
2013 was a wonderful and memorable year for me, and I’m eagerly looking forward to what 2014 has in store. Today’s printable image is a vintage clock face. It’s a PNG image, so you can layer it digitally over other images. This isn’t an image that can be enlarged, or the numbers will become pixelated. The original face is attached to a rounded piece of galvanized metal, so I couldn’t lay it flat on my scanner to get a {Read More}
