Quirky Finds


In walks Kandi with her bag..and she pulls this out! *gasp*
A vintage handmade bowling set - circa 1950

Adorbs, right? I imagine Grandpa spent many hours in the workshop
making this set for the little tyke. It even has it's own set of wheels!

We'll be adding this to eBay very soon. We think it deserves to be seen!

Do you know how close I was to setting this up to actually play it?
The ball is so cute. Not perfectly round so I'm sure it's a tad wobbly. :)

Shades Of Gray

I thought it would be easy...but I guess picking a paint color never is!
They all start looking the same after while, don't they?


And this is what's left after we tossed 10 of the samples.
Down to 6. I never knew there were so many shades of gray!

New paint on the walls and wood floors in our window... We can hardly wait!

Martha Stewart Cake Topper ~ Before & After

This cake topper from Martha Stewart didn't always look like this. The Attic girls got their hands on it and gave it a vintage makeover! It was a very simple process.

A vintage doily was added on the top of the basket and the entire piece was tea stained.

Every bride needs a head piece so I made her one with a pink rhinestone.

A string of pearls for her...a simple bow tie for him.

I really wanted to give him a top hat, and still might!

(Sold)


This is the "Before" picture and as you can see, it was VERY white.
