Recently I found a bunch of vintage SWISSTRAW for crafting.
This vintage piece is made with Swisstraw. I bought it at a g'sale for $2 last fall. It was mounted on a very heavy board covered with disintegrating burlap. I knew I could do something with it.
I took it apart and reassembled it for Christmas. I remounted it on foamboard with new burlap. I had wanted to poke Christmas lights from behind but couldn't find a single strand of 10 lights! Anyway, THAT'S what Swisstraw is good for!
Moving right along.....
Two crafty Valentine girls found at two different thrifts. $1.75 for both.
I paid too much for this little chair, but I had to get it for these two girls...
Best friends sharing one chair. They fit perfectly.
I'd been eyeing these two at the antique mall since before Christmas and when they were recently marked down to $4 ea, I bought 'em.
Sometimes you just need to buy something that makes you smile each morning. :)
love rosie
