Reincarnated Remnants ~ Dresses to Wallets

I love recycling and I especially love it when it's a team effort!  For years I have been saving bags of fabric remnants from dresses I have hemmed to more flattering lengths and recently after cleaning out my garage, I passed them onto a crafty friend.  Last weekend after having dinner, Jeff and I were browsing around Blue Windows on 2nd St. in Long Beach and all of a sudden I spotted some really familiar fabric.  Heather Davidson, the friend I passed the fabric onto, had made all of these beautiful wallets from the pieces I had given her.  After digging through my sold items I was able to find the two dresses that contributed to these beautiful wallets.

New Product: Vintage Bow Tie Headbands

I came across some very cute vintage bow ties from the 40's and 50's awhile back and I just thought they were cute as can be!  Sweet little bows in fun patterns and colors, sadly the clips on the back were rusty and oxidized.  So, I thought about how I could repurpose them into a new, fun accessory...headbands seemed like the perfect fit!  I debuted these at the Unique LA show and they were a big hit.  Now you can buy them in our online shop.
