With Thanksgiving coming soon, and lots of cooking and baking to be done, it seemed like a good time to share this image of a woman baking a pie, which was part of an advertisement for None Such Mince Meat, from a 1906 Ladies Home Journal magazine. This image was generously sent to me by Audrey @ Timeless Treasures. Blessings, Angie
Sonday – {Bringing in the Sheaves} Antique Hymn Page Printable
November 17, 2013 by 4 Comments
The farmers in our area hustled all last week to finish harvesting the last of the corn. This week they were tilling up the stubble left in the fields and I imagine they are relieved to have their work done for the season. I’ve very familiar with the first two verses in this hymn, but the last two are really meaningful as well. Blessings, Angie

DIY Engineering Print French Letter Gift Wrap
October 27, 2013 by 14 Comments
I am really getting some “mileage” out of the 1872 French letter I purchased a few months ago, and came up with another way to use it. I love the wrapping paper with antique images sold by Jeanne d’ Arc Living, but at about $14 for a 60-inch sheet (plus shipping), I knew I could get a similar look by creating my own for a lot less money. I went to Staples and had them print an engineering print for {Read More}
Printable Hang Tag Gift Tags
October 25, 2013 by 14 Comments
Several weeks ago, I shared some hang tags that came from a 1930’s dealer catalog. Originally, they had the words “Special Sale” and “Sold” on them, and were used in stores. Those tags are perfect for people who sell their handmade products at fairs or in a booth, but I wanted to modify them, so others could use them as well. I’ve created a set of printable gift tags with 7 different greetings on them, as well as a {Read More}
French Script Sewing Bench Makeover & Flying Dust
October 10, 2013 by 22 Comments
Yesterday, I shared with you an 1872 French letter written in a lovely script. Today, I’m going to share what I did with the PNG version of this letter. During the summer, I hit a great yard sale that had lots of my favorite kinds of finds, which included an old sewing machine in a stand and included this little bench seat. The seat lifts off the chair and it was filled with sewing notions – a bonus! It has {Read More}

Antique Graphics Wednesday – 1910 Roach Killer Advertisement
October 2, 2013 by 3 Comments
Here’s a creepy crawly illustration from a roach killer advertisement from a 1910 “The Housekeeper” magazine. It’s creepy enough for some Halloween projects. This is the complete advertisement, in the natural color tone. I have no idea what “electric” paste was, but if I could sympathize with a roach, (and I can’t) I’d feel a little sorry for this guy who is loosing limbs as he walks away from the stuff. This interesting advertisement was sent to me by Audrey {Read More}
