I
have quite a few vintage ink wells that I collected to use at my son's wedding last summer and I've been trying to decide what to do with
them. I decorated some to use on my spindle shelf. I was having so much fun with these that I decided to make up some more and put them in my Etsy Shop. Here are just a couple of them:
I
dug into my stash of vintage jewelry and pieced together "necklaces"
for each of them after applying some vintage-style labels. This is one
of my favorites. The 'pendant' is actually the clasp from an old
necklace and it has the most beautiful, raised, beveled glass piece on
it. I added the other parts from a different piece of jewelry.
Each
ink well has a rolled up page from an old French book I have but you
could also fill these with vintage buttons, beads or even use them as a
small flower vase.
Stop over and take a look . . . I've added several new items to the shop this week!
Oh, I love these! I put one in my favs, too! You have some beautiful things in your shop!
ReplyDeleteThese are just lovely Lauren. Romantic and dreamy!
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with these pretty bottles. They're sure looking good all dressed up:-)
ReplyDeleteLauren I love bottles of any kind, I can't believe you were able to find enough for a wedding! I have to tell you I sold tons of vintage bottles at the Flea I just did and the ones that sold first where the ones I fancied up with jewelry or ribbon and flowers.
