Vintage Photos...

Well I've embraced modern technology and have finally given up on my temperamental 80 year old Singers and got myself a new electric one which I've had fun playing around with making some vintage inspired pieces!

Lavender Scented Hearts



"Summer Holiday" - unsure whether to mount this in a frame or make it into a cushion?!


Stitched Postcard



Vintage Postcard Cards


These will all be available to buy at Sutton Vintage and Arts Fair but if any of my pieces take your fancy then feel free to email me :-)

And talking about Sutton Vintage, check out the new flyer!


Lovely isn't it?!

Can I also thank all my lovely followers, 30 so far!!
Let's make it 50 and I'll have a big giveaway ;-)

Rule Britannia! Britannia rules the waves...


I used to be somewhat addicted to buying magazines. It got to a point where
I was buying up to 4 mags a week. They were totally unnecessary but to be
fair they did help to beat my "mid-week blues" at College. But the
only mag that I ever actually read every page of was Company
and now it's the only magazine I ever buy!

Plus some of you may remember I blogged about Company back in January



If you've never read it I really suggest you do, it has everything from
Fashion to Homes, Real Life to Crafts...


Plus it occasionally has it's fair share of Georgey Lamb ;-)


The October issue was "The British Issue" and it really inspired
me to get making all things Britannia!


Knitted Jubilee Brooch


Union Jack and Vintage Stamp Brooch



Union Jack Felt Owl Keyring (which really didn't want to be photographed!)

Right then, I'm off down the shops to get this months Company Mag!

Let me know what you think of my latest makes :-)

Hello I'm Laura...

Hello to anyone actually reading this, I'm Laura. I've just turned 18 and therefore I have decided I may as well set up this little blog to show some of my work! I create Vintage-inspired pieces, at the moment I'm playing around with making simple cards and textile pieces. Hope you enjoy my useless blog posts :-)
