Well, I may not have the studio back in order until this weekend, but the creative bug is biting! I did a little shopping at Vintage Supply Company this week. This shop is owned by Jeanette Janson, one of my favorite artists and bloggers. You can always find great vintage items and mixed media supplies in her shop. I bought this lot of old tape measure pieces for projects.
Jeanette often has huge lots of jewelry too. My supply is getting a bit low. It is fun to purchase a lot and to see what treasures you find. I know that anything from Jeanette will include lots of interesting and useful finds.
I loved the look of this textured binding and had to buy a small piece. Jeanette thinks it is some sort of carpet binding. I have a feeling it will end up in a future project!
These old file cabinet drawer plates will really come in handy. These will be great for putting words on art pieces or maybe even making a small collage right inside. We shall see! Thank you for shopping with me. Be sure to visit Jeanette at the links I provided for you above. All photos courtesy of Jeanette's shop. Have a great day my friends. xoxo
