SIMPLE TREASURES
ONE OF THE ITEMS I FOUND WHEN I MADE THE TRIP OUT TO JOSIE'S ANTIQUES, WAS THIS PACKETTE OF VINTAGE TRIMS. I SNATCHED IT UP WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING BEYOND THE TOP OF THE STACK! I JUST KNEW IT WAS SOMETHING I HAD TO HAVE! WELL, IMAGINE MY PLEASURE WHEN I FINALLY TOOK IT APART TODAY! OMG! THESE ARE THE KINDS OF THINGS THAT MAKE MY HEART RACE! I SIMPLY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PART WITH THEM! I THINK I WILL FIND A SHADOW BOX TYPE FRAME AND DISPLAY THEM IN THERE SO THAT I CAN ENJOY LOOKING AT THEM WHEN I'M IN MY STUDIO. THESE ARE FOR SURE STAYING AT MY HOUSE!

OMG is right. I wouldn't part with that either if I were you. I've never seen trim packaged so pretty from long ago. Guess it was before me time and I'm not a spring chicken. Hope you will post it again after you give it it's new home. And thanks for sharing.

These are the very things that make my heart skip a beat. I bet you were so excited to discover this treasure. Isn't it funny how the good things in life are the little things? I love the fact that we seem to have many likes in common.Thanks for all the kind thoughts you leave me.
Hugs, June
I remember my Grandmother having these types of trimmings in her sewing kit - thanks for the lovely trip down memory lane with her - she really was a very special person... hugs to you,Vxx
