Nativity Silhouette Candle Holder – 12 Days of Christmas {day 3}
November 22, 2014 by 11 Comments
We don’t have recycling pickup, since we live outside the city limits, which is why you will frequently see projects created by me from things most people take to the recycling center – like tin cans and glass jars. That means I have lots of tin cans and jars to craft with…lots. If you save glass jars too, this Day 3 project for my 12 Days of Christmas celebration is for you! I almost feel guilty calling it a “project”, because {Read More}
Antique French Advertisement in Fancy Scrolled Frame Clip Art
November 21, 2014 by 2 Comments
This image is actually a combination of two images from an 1800’s magazine. The scrolled frame border originally had different advertisement inside of it,that wasn’t terribly pretty, and the antique French advertisement originally had a boring border, so I combined the two to come up with a much nicer version. This would make a great image to transfer on furniture, flour sack towels, etc. {CLICK ON IMAGES TO ENLARGE} Here is the frame without the advertisement inside. Here is {Read More}

I hope you rummaged through you recycling bin yesterday, and have gotten started making yourself a Cookie Cutter Window Candy Jar – you could whip up several of them in an evening! I’ve been happily munching on the soft peppermints in my jar for several days. At this rate, I’ll gain 10 pounds before November has even ended! Day 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas celebration won’t make you gain any weight at all, but it might make you want {Read More}

I bought several magazines from the late 1800’s, that have so many beautiful images and antique advertisements, so you’ll be seeing lots of them in the coming weeks. I fell in love with this advertisement for sewing thread, with a hand on it. I think this would look awesome enlarged as a sign for a sewing or craft room. I’ve removed all the background from it here. Here it is before I removed the background. Here is the complete advertisement – isn’t {Read More}
Thanksgiving Printable Place Cards

With Thanksgiving only a little over a week away, I created some pretty place cards that can be personalized with your guest’s names, and there is a place on the back for each person to write what they are thankful for. Even if you don’t have company coming over to share a Thanksgiving meal, these could also be used with your children, making them a nice keepsake to remember what they were thankful for, and to help them remember that {Read More}
Antique Hymn Printable Music – Brighten the Corner Where You Are
November 15, 2014 by 10 Comments
I love the title of this music page, from an antique hymn book in my collection. I love that it speaks to the fact that we don’t need to wait until we can do some “deed of greatness”, because we may never do anything if we do. Instead, we should use whatever gifts God gives us to “brighten the corner where you are”. {CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE AND PRINT MUSIC PAGE} I hope you brighten whatever corner God {Read More}
Antique Graphics Advertisement – Dr. Lyon’s Tooth Powder Clip Art
November 14, 2014 by 1 Comment
This antique graphic advertisement for Dr. Lyon’s Tooth Powder came from a 1880’s magazine. I think it would look wonderful as art in a bathroom! I’ve removed the background from this image, so it can be layered over other images. Here is the original image, that includes the background. Wouldn’t this look awesome in a dentist office? Many more free printable antique advertisements can be found HERE.
