Vintage Wreaths

My friend Kelly & I are making these beautiful wreaths out of vintage glass ornaments.I have been buying glass ornaments for years and now they have found their special place to be displayed. Each wreath takes on a special personality of it's own. This pink one is the best so far!

Find The Cure

My friend, Gina, will be walking in the Breast Cancer 3-Day in a few weeks. I designed a necklace for her and others to wear. When I wear mine, it makes me think of others who have passed in my life, my nephew Michael died of SIDS and my dad died from Pulmonary Fibrosis. May they find cures for all of these sicknesses.

The vintage spoons are hand pounded and hand stamped. They are $24 and 20% will be donated to my friend Gina for Breast Cancer Research. An Additional 20% of the purchase price will go to The Concord N.H. Hospital, in honor of my nephew Michael. They will be available for purchase at The Cornerstore and Vignettes Antiques. If you would like to order one, please send me an email.

Happy Halloween!

These are my kids many years ago. Time passes quickly, enjoy the day with your families!

Thank you to our judge

Thank you, Karen, for choosing our winning spoon phrase! Here is a small token of my appreciation for all of your support and encouragement (and playing with Buddy).

We also had a shop winner...

Thank you to everyone who submitted phrases!

I appologize for the delay in posting. My computer crashed and it has taken my sweet husband almost a week to get me back to blog land!

October Contest

I've been stamping phrases on spoons and I need a little inspiration. I've done "Blessings", "You had me at hello...", "Live your life with Grace" ...now I need a few more. Send me a phrase or quote that inspires you, not too long as I'm hand stamping each letter! French sayings would be great too! I'll have my neighbor pick the one she likes the most and if your phrase is chosen, I'll send you a hand pounded and hand stamped spoon necklace!

Just post your idea in the comments section. The contest ends October 15 and I will post the winning phrase stamped on a vintage spoon! As an added bonus, if you refer to my contest on your blog, I'll enter your name into a drawing for a spoon stamped with your store's name on it. How cute would it be to wear a necklace with "The Attic Girls" or "The Cornerstore" stamped on it? The drawing for a "store" spoon will be October 16. Thank you and good luck!
