I'm up to my elbows in pink, blue, feathers and jewels working on my Marie collage, so until I post again about Disneyland, here are some pretties to look at:I am in love with the old metal escutcheon plate--it's the perfect shade of chippy aqua blue! It needs cleaning so I'm trying to figure out how to do it gently without taking off the paint. The itty bitty flower frogs were a thrill to find; each is not quite as big around as a quarter! They are the smallest I've ever seen. I bought all I could find and I hope to offer some in my poor neglected etsy shop sometime very soon. And the vintage pink fabric measuring tape is a little treat I picked up at my favorite local shop, Patina. I've never found a pink one before and I'm smitten!

Back to the salt mines for me!

  2. Those itty bitty flower frogs are adorable! Not too long ago I posted that I had found my first frog, then I found five, and since then I keep finding them. I think I have eleven now. But, I've never seen teeny ones! Great for displaying postcards and artwork.

    PS. My cousin was at Disneyland last week when you were there and I just knew you would meet, make fast friends, get to talking and my name would come up. It could happen! ;o)

  3. Cute finds! I have an old plate like that I love but I've never figured out what to do with it. It's in a box somewhere waiting for some day.
