Vintage Inspiration Friday #8



OK, I know I'm a little late here...
and these bottles are something that most grade school crafters
have mastered.

But hey...
I got bit by the "crafty bug" last week,
so I made up a bunch of Halloween themed bottles
and littered them throughout my booth at Spring Creek.






This one was for my sister since she has "boys".



I'm a huge fan of 1920's children's book graphics
and old postcards.





And you KNOW how much I love me some old keys!





















I'm trying to get the jump on bottles for Christmas,
a project for next week, yipee!




I'm also linking with the DIY Show Off Party
for some fabulous fall fun!

Remember, next
Vintage Inspiration Friday
the "optional" theme is setting a
 Fall or Halloween Table.

I've already seen a lot of fabulous posts about Fall tablescapes,
so if you've done one, I'd love you to link up!

(pssst...my header photo is a hint of what I did for the next party)



And you know, it's ANY vintage inspiration!!


Hope you'll come by and link up to the par-tay!!

love,
Debra




Sorry for the confusion here. It seems my computer has a mind of it's own when it comes to scheduling and publishing. The Link is open now!

  2. Well, the bottles are new to me and I wonder where you found inspiration on how to make them. The labels are great, so are the old keys!

  3. These are great, Debra! I love them! They make for such a nice display on a table just on their own. The different shapes, sizes and images you used are very eye catching. I'm sure they will go quickly!

  4. Maybe any grade school kid could make them...but because you did...that makes them extra special! Got your magic all over 'em...who wouldn't want to be a little of that?
    Debbie
    P.S. Woo hoo...look at me...I'm not only ready...I'm early!
