Fantastic Esty Find

I just adore this necklace! Crafted from vintage jewelery bits, it makes an eco chic statement. What a creative idea to take old clip on earrings and create new jewelry pieces!

Owl & Tree Pincushions

I was lucky enough to find several of these amazing vintage linen napkins. The print is earthy and adorable. And I love that I can use every bit of it.

After reserving a couple napkins to use in a baby quilt for my friend Shauna, I decided to make some pincushions (since I am forever having pins laying around everywhere!). And I love, love, love these little cuties!


The backs are brown organic cotton, and they are stuffed full of bamboo/organic cotton fluff. Since I only used a small portion of the vintage napkin, I made some extra pincushions, which will soon be up for grabs in my Etsy shop.
