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}

For those who love antique graphics, and are history buffs, this is an early 1900’s invoice showing a Native American man with a pipe, and Buffalo heads on the sides.

Just print them, plop them in a frame, and hang them! You could also decoupage them onto wood as well.
