How to Make DIY Canvas Banners for Special Events Last month I had a special request from a customer for an alphabet stencil. The timing was perfect, because my niece also wanted me to make canvas banners for her wedding.

I have another antique alphabet printable for you today. This one is a book plate from 1906, and has an ornate font, that reminds me of Roman columns with acanthus leaves. It would look wonderful as a framed print. Other antique alphabets can be found here, here, here, here, here, and here.

Antique Alphabet School Book Primer Pages

Today, I have some beautiful alphabet images from an 1800’s schoolbook, called, the “Tract Primer”. Antique flashcards are so popular right now, so these pages could be printed, cut apart, and framed as a flashcard. They would also be lovely as framed art in child’s room. The inside cover page has such a sweet image on it. I have many more images from antique school books HERE. {PIN this image now, & Print later!} Blessings, Angie View Verse {Read More}
Alphabet School Primer Page – Antique Graphics Wednesday
April 2, 2014 by 5 Comments
I’m not sure what it is about antique school primers, but I absolutely love them. The books for the youngest students, usually included an alphabet page showing cursive or script alphabets for handwriting practice, and those are my favorite pages. These two images both came from an 1898 primer. I think they would make adorable gift tags, or enlarged for printable instant art to frame, but tomorrow I’ll be sharing another project I think these images are perfect for. Enjoy! {Read More}

I warned you a few days ago that I’m a slow learner, and all the troubles I had with my bakery sign didn’t teach me my lesson not to choose elaborate fonts to cut out on vinyl with my Silhouette machine. I truly expected this project to be a failure and probably be a total waste of time, but I felt compelled to try it anyway. Here’s why. I bought an adorable 1895 school primer. It is filled with some {Read More}
Antique Graphics Wednesday – Vintage Alphabet Flashcards
October 31, 2012 by 4 Comments
I purchased a few sets of school flashcards from the 1960’s at a flea market this summer, with cute illlustrations on each letter card. The only problem with buying sets of flashcards is that you only receive one of each letter, but having these images, you can print whatever letters you need to form words. Flashcards like these make great banners, as well as photo props, so I hope you enjoy them. I left a little bit of a black border around {Read More}

Since it’s back to school time, I thought I’d share some great images featuring the alphabet. I bought these old metal tabs at an antique store. They previously were used inside of filing cabinets to separate files by letter. Here is the whole alphabet as individual letters. I think there are at least 101 things you could do with these, so I hope you do something fun with them! If you are wondering where #13 went, the letters on it {Read More}
