Vintage China and Silk Pincushion

Many times I will see these with the fabric shattered or worse - replaced. Other times an arm is broken.



I was fortunate to find this darling about 25 years ago, in original condition. Not perfect, of course, but pretty nice.

What do you think?

Vintage Valentines

Of course this is only a fraction of the collection.




Yes, it is a problem. I am a vintage valentine hoarder!


The sentiments are so sweet on these! (Click to enlarge.)

Vintage Reds and Whites

Another collection!


Mostly red and white crocheted potholders - the little dresses are my favorites!



Do you love the vintage "Tom's" store display? The little clips were designed to display lunch-sized snacks. So cute, right?



Random Vintage Valentine Sentiment:

I made a little Valentine,
All lovely lace and colors fine,
I thought of you to send it to;
Sweetheart, will you be mine?
