    vintage refashioned

    Giving vintage goodies a second chance is what I like to see. There’s nothing more charming than uncovering the beauty in forgotten and overlooked things. Etsy shop owner Vintage Refashioned is doing just that, creating sweet little brooches, hair pins and bags out of amazing recycled coat sleeves and other lovely fabrics and buttons. My only gripe is I want to see more!

                

    And my favorite moment today. . . seeing this Sailor Girl Bag!

      thank you so much for this wonderfully sweet post! I had just listed these newer items and was holding my breath that people would like them. so this was such a great way to start the weekend – thank you.
      I have many more flowers on their way into my shop. In fact, i’ll be sewing some tonight!
