VINTAGE BLACK CAT
VTT
Today's VTT is some vintage ephemera that I plan selling on Esty. Store not open yet hope to get it going as soon as I get to FL this winter. Leaving on Nov. 1 these are some packets I made up to use for altered art, scrap booking, and any other project that need some embellishment.
The first one is a vintage pumpkin packet, the pumpkin is one I have had since my kids were little, 1960's would be the time frame. The plastic cake picks are from the same time frame and the paper photo frame is a little older from the early 1900's found it in the attic with some family photos that I have no Idea who they are. I mean really old ! The ribbon and ric rac has been around awhile also. The rest of the pic's are some I printed of the internet.
The black cat in the second packet is the same time frame. I had when kids were little. I use to hang these things in the windows. Same ric rac as other packet, a witch cake pick, some old playing cards, I was thrilled when I found the round deck of cards! Did not know what I was going to do with them but for a 50 cents could not pass them up. I love making up these packets and I hope they sell on Esty. I will be selling other things also. I have 10 totes full of this kind of stuff to make up and sell this winter. I hope to find some place in FL to sell also. Like a craft mall.
The pic of the giant pumpkins is something I saw last week while out geocaching. I sure would hate having to dispose of them later!! But fun to look at.
I want to thank all who come and check out my blog each day and leave comments it means alot to me!
Also I was shocked to learn of the passing of one our VTT blogger last week, CC left nice comments, and had a neat blog. I'm sure she will be missed.
You can click on pic to make it larger and see all the little things that are in the packet. And see how much the pumpkings weigh, they have a sign with wt in front of each pumpkin.
Don't forget to check out our host's great blog! http://coloradolady.blogspot.com/
Blessings to all.

Donna - I love your Halloween Kitty. She is absolutely adorable. This is the type of decoration I remember from my childhood. Scary, but not tooooo scary!

Best wishes for your Etsy store. Someday I will get my act together and get mine running.
ReplyDeleteWow ~ look at the size of those pumpkins! The squirrels in my yard love to eat the seeds and the flesh from the pumpkins I set outside. Wouldn't they have fun with those!!

We used to live in Minnesota near a town called Anoka...I tell you that because they are the self-proclaimed Halloween Capital and they have rows and rows and antique stores with just this same kind of stuff. I guess I am getting old as I remember much of it from my own childhood, lol! I adore your header :)

It all looks like fun. I remember when I was little my mom dressed up like a witch and had a black pot of dry ice on the front porch. Almost no one would come to the door!
