I'm not sure why, but I like the look of tattered old papers and textiles.
I use these for my journal pages.
Some of this stuff is in pretty bad condition, but that's partly what I like about them.
Books and woven fabric pieces all tied up with twine.
Greeting cards and letters from the early 1900's in an old wire basket.
Feels good to have some things sorted and organized. Maybe tomorrow will be a day for creating.
We'll see.
Have a nice day!

I do too!!!! There's this antique/thrift store not too far from me and I make it a point to go in there at least once a month. They always have all kinds of old books, postcards and photos. I should start buying some of the old tattered books.

You should! I need to see what's going on at my local thrift shop too. Haven't been there in forever.
DeletePretty. Love the captures of your treasured pieces.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! It's been fun using that old camera again.
DeleteOh, it looks good, Karen,- I also collect old books, and fabrics, cards, photos, envelopes, and ............ :-) I love your woven fabrics, did you die them yourselves ?
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday to you, dear.
Hugs, Dorthe
Hi Dorthe and thank you. I did not dye these fabrics. I have a feeling you have a wonderful collection of supplies! Hugs
DeleteKaren, I doo- far too many bits and pieces, and even we moved to our new house only few months ago, and I sold and throw out a lot, there is still lots to do with ,LOL. Hugs.
