Treasure Tuesday

Some of you may know that I have two online shops on Etsy; one shop features my artwork and a few art supplies. The other shop has a variety of vintage and antique items. Some come from our own collections, and some come from our treasure hunting at estate sales or thrift shops. (It's addicting!) 

One of my fellow vintage sellers made a comment today that totally describes what I do when I come across something that appeals to me: "I rescue  it, bring it home, care for it a while and then send it on to a new loving family". 
Similar to pet rescue, only different. ;)  

I thought it would be fun to highlight a few of the treasures from Etsy - from my shop and some of my favorite Etsy sellers too. 
Every so often I'll have a Treasure Tuesday... like today! 

This week just a few from the collectibles section of my shop: 

Colclough Bone China Tea Cup and Saucer circa 1940s


Wild Rose Porcelain Trivet - hand painted in 1950s


Large Porcelain Piggy Bank circa 1960s
Ohio Pottery Pink & Blue Flower Vase circa 1950s


Enjoy your Tuesday!

Hand Art

I had fun creating some mixed media hands for a swap on atcsforall.com. We used our own hand as a template and created whatever type of art that spoke to us. 
And this is what I created. 
The owl is the one I kept for me. :)
