Getting Ready for the Bridal Bazaar...

Lizzy B and I took some photos for our upcoming day at The Bridal Bazaar in San Diego. It was quite an eye opener to see my teenager put on a wedding dress to model for me!

These bracelets are made from vintage dictionaries!

I am working on a custom boutonniere for a groom, I'll post the picture as soon as he picks his favorite piece!

A perfect gift for Mom...

These are my cute nieces on the East Coast. I embellished their black & white photo with vintage rhinestones and applied a protective coating. Their initials were then stamped on a round 'tag'. All pieces were made from spoons! This would make an adorable Mother's Day gift for that special mom in your life!

Email me for ordering details.

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...

Congratulations, Sheila! I love your Tattered Goods

The winner of my October Contest is...

'Serenity' submitted by Sandra from Under The Sun with Me

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!
