Today I brought about 1,000 vintage sewing patterns down to my brick and mortar store location of Lulu's Vintage!
I haven't counted the pieces of these patterns yet- but, it's something that I am planning on working on. It takes me about 10 minutes to count each set of pattern pieces and get the pattern folded and put back into it's envelope. I am inviting any vintage sewing pattern fanatics to stop by the store and check out my back-stock. My patterns range from the 1920's-1980's.
Storing vintage sewing patterns can pose a problem. I have found the best solution are cardboard comic book storage boxes which come with a lid and are easily stack-able. I picked mine up at Excalibur Books & Comics (2444 S.E. Hawthorne Blvd).
The chic Vogue Couturier Design pattern posted above costs $50- over at Lulu's Vintage online store or can be purchased at Lulu's Vintage brick and mortar location here in Portland, Oregon at 916 West Burnside Street.
Tramp art that is (I couldn't resist using some of the lyrics from one of my favorite Otis Redding songs as the title for this post, when else might I get a chance to use a title such as this). Also known as prison art. While serving time prisoners would while away the hours by creating useful objects out of cigarette packs...
Red purse.
Inside the purse there's a note that says, "Bob's Mother smoked Pall Mall cigarettes and had this pocketbook made out of the empty packs. They made it at the Lewisburg Penitentary (can't spell & too lazy to look it up)."
You can purchase this purse for $58- from JourneyAndLandscape on Etsy.

Chepina. T jewelry box.

Today I found these cool assemblages of found objects for sale over on Etsy. I consider the photographs of the objects to be artwork in their own right.
The photos remind me of an Italian photographer who takes photos of objects arranged by color. I love this guy's work but, I can't remember his name. I discovered his work when I bought some postcards in Amsterdam, each postcard featuring objects in a different color, I have also had a couple of calendars featuring his work.
I love arranging things by color- I find it so aesthetically pleasing. My obsession with color organization dates back to when I was a child and I would pour all of the Skittles out of the bag and arrange them in rows according to color. I also love the look of a collection of similar objects together.
Now's your chance to buy your very own colorful curated collection of objects from Sushipotparts...
