PEARLS AND LACE THURSDAY

WORK JOYFULLY AND PEACEFULLY, KNOWING THAT RIGHT THOUGHTS AND RIGHT EFFORTS WILL INEVITABLY BRING ABOUT RIGHT RESULTS
JAMES ALLEN
Welcome to my "Pearls and Lace Thursday" blog party. I would like to thank Doni at Faith, Grace, Crafts for hosting this party. You can also join in her 100th blog post giveaway (you have until midnight tonight) wait until you see what she is giving away!!
I LOVE VINTAGE LACE
I am crazy for vintage lace and trims. I have a very extensive collection (if I do say). I love to shop the rummage sales (best place to find vintage lace and trims) yard sales, flea markets, our local auction house (this is where I have gotten boxes FULL) and more.I also LOVE threads, sewing notions and goodies like that. I also love trims from wedding dresses and prom dresses, etc.
I love vintage rick rack, too.
I create alot of items using my vintage lace and trims. My collection of Toby's Tweets (BIRDS) are all embellished with vintage lace and trims. See this post for more Tweets. I love to make collage items using trims and lace. I stain some of my vintage trims with coffee, tea and dyes, giving them a worn and tattered look. I also love vintage doilys and linens, don't you??
I hope you enjoyed my Pearls and Lace party.
Don't forget to go on over to Faith, Grace, Crafts to see who else likes Pearls and Lace and don't forget about the giveaway there.
Thanks for stopping by.
I forgot to mention I love Pearls, too!!
