I know Spring is almost here

Miss Olivia and the Snowy Day

Craft Club this week, We all made a wreath and each one was so completely different. 

This is mine

New at Vintage Lindy Lou

Friday goings on

I found a new use for some of my journal supplies with this plastic box with a carrying handle.

I was looking for some fun objects to make some projects for Valentine's Day and here is a cigar box full of weird little toys and gumball trinkets and more...

Champagne all around

What is the coupe glass? 

I was wondering since I had glasses to photogragh and write a description for my shop, the words "Champagne coupe" kept coming to mind but I realized that I really didn't have a clear understanding of what a coupe glass was, just an impression of what it was. So research begins once again.

Wikipedia:  Champagne coupe

The champagne coupe is a shallow, broad-bowled, saucer shaped stemmed glass generally capable of containing 4 to 8 US fl oz (120 to 240 ml) of liquid. Legend has it the shape of the coupe was modelled on the breast Marie Antoinette but the glass was designed especially for sparkling wine and champagne in England in 1663.The coupe was fashionable in France from its introduction in the 1700s until the 1970s, and in the United States from the 1930s to the 1980s.

What's New

We have a little snow and I hope it stays for the holidays. I have gotten out all my tons of vintage Christmas decorations and everything is pretty close to being set up. I have to be very careful  that all my goodies are completely out of reach of my ever growing puppy, Miss Olivia.

Vintage Lindy Lou has been very busy this month. I think I need a vacation-preferably someplace hot and sunny for LOTS of swimming.
I have been trying to list three items a day. Check out my Etsy shop. I also still have some unique vintage Christmas items too!

I have been making some decorations this week. I made a Christmas tree covered with vintage bulbs, santa, reindeer, candy canes, tinsel, and more. I didn't get a photo of it yet, but will in the next day or so.
Here are wreaths that I made today:

Happy Holidays from me and Miss Olivia!

Cheers

Linda

Just thinking

Miss Olivia

Some thoughts for the day (after I get a bunch of pesky paperwork finished). One: Starting a husky club in my area with other Huskys and their parents. Kind of like a play group thing.
Two: Wouldn't it be fun to make a dollhouse? I am thing like a Mid Century Modern one. I saw this person's creations on Instagram http://www.instagram.com/maryann_roy/
I mean like I wish my actual house looked like her miniatures!
