vintage angel company











My sweet friend Susie is opening her own shop Vintage Angel Company June 4.  You won't be disappointed as you enter a shop full of one of a kind vintage cowboy boots, clothing, jewelry, a custom made vintage clothing line called "Q," and most of my furniture/art.  Susie and and her friend Ginger have collaborated to make one of kind vintage dresses and vintage scarf blouses.  There will be a "sewing lab" located in the back of the shop where their creations will come to life.  I have my eye on a few I would like to purchase.  Susie's shop is located at 3519 Fremont Pl. N. Seattle, Wa  98103

beautifying some odds and ends

Before
After



     My friend Jo gave me these old hardware pieces awhile back.   I finally put them to use.  Found the store sign frame at the Fremont Market on Sunday and the wood came from Alki Beach.  I love it when an idea strikes and all of the pieces are there!!!  Cheers to Thursday and to all of you repurposers out there!!!!
