Boy did it feel good to create again with vintage papers and trims. I have been so focused on creating jewelry, I almost forgot that's true passion is vintage papers.

New apron
I have been at our cottage in northern Michigan and I usually take my crafting supplies with me to keep me occupied while my husband golfs. I found this old lumber apron and I added a touch of lace to the bottom to give it a bit of femininity. I can't wait to wear it to Karla Nathan's birdsong event.

Utica antique market
A couple of weeks ago my mom and I went to the Utica antique market. It was so much fun to rummage through all of the booths. I did find some great things and I ran out I cash very quickly. That is why I love antique malls...they accept credit cards.
This will be my second post using my iPhone and I will TRY and keep up posting on a more frequently.

Loving my new shabby antique sign
When I saw this old sign at a local shop, I knew I needed to have it and I just love it. I know need to get my husband to hang it on the wall...not sure he will think that is a priority!

A new shabby cabinet
A couple of weeks ago I brought home this shabby cabinet for our hallway and my husband asked where are the chickens....he thought is was the most awful thing I had ever bought, BUT I love it. For whatever reason he thinks it belongs in a chicken coop....what does he know? Anyway, I now have a place to store all of my china and I couldn't be happier.

A quick hello
I feel so bad, my little blog is like a long lost friend to me... it seems like it is always there for me but I seem to be so busy with my new friends like Instagram, Facebook or Pintereset. I just want you to know Vintage Flair...you will always be my favorite and I can't image my life without you...even though you have been so neglected. We use to be the best of friends...what happened? I need to be a better friend to you....please forgive me for be tempted by these "others" that are so fast to stay connected with my creative friends. It seems like I can take a photo in a matter of minutes with Instagram but as I am typing this, I have been sitting here for 10 minutes typing away and it takes so long to create a post these days. Vintage Flair....I just need to figure out a way to incorporate you into my extremely busy world.
XoXo,
Lori
P.S. Yes, in case you have forgotten, I am your long lost author of this blog!
