This couldn't be a more perfect time for the latest challenge over at Simon Says Stamp and Show, anything t!m inspired! I have been working on my version of his curio cabinet at night after work and just finished it on Monday. I've included close ups of the different sections because I am so proud of it!
All of these sewing notions are so cool!
Vintage milk cap and ruler piece with transistors wrapped around it.
Love the Frozen Charlotte Head and vintage broach.
This is my absolute favorite piece in the whole box! I found this medicine bottle at an antique shop and it still had the label intact. I walked up to it and was so amazed to see that the original pills were still inside also!! I had to have it and then found out it was only $1.00! The shop owner went to a closet and pulled out 5 more almost just like it but smaller. Needless to say, I bought them all!
This is an old car that was my fathers as a child and I have kept it all these years for a reason. Now it has a permanent home.
Love this box also because I love photography. That's an original flash bulb from an old Kodak Brownie Box Camera and vintage 8MM film.
