New listings and other such stuff

I realized I havent made in a new blog entry in awhile
Im not going to get followers by being boring :(

Recently Ive been working harder on my shop than I usually do.
Buying new stuff making new stuff.


Recently I had an Adventure to a flea market in oklahoma to buy some Agatha Christie books I had wanted but didnt get the last time I was there.
I got them stacks and stacks of them ( the leather look ones ) I think im getting on another Agatha Christie kick..Im also reading some of them outloud to Josh..After Im done reading him those I promised I would start reading the Yellow fairy book and the Green Fairy book and the Red Fairy book ( By Andrew Lang )

So As I was searching for the book booth I found a bag of Lovely Squeak toys
Some were Ruth E Newton.
I was very happy with the find and today I spent time cleaning them up and getting them ready for pictures.

This weekend after I take the pictures Ill post them on here and you can tell me what you think.
I also found a cute little doll awhile back at a flea market near Arkansas that looks like maybe it might be a liddle Kiddle..im not sure though maybe someone on here can help me after I post the picture.

Anyways Ive been working on necklaces for both my shops.
I really enjoy crafting while watching some cartoons or movies to inspire me :)


 Im pretty proud of this one it turned out really well after I took it apart and re did the color combination a few times
 This one is for sale in my charity shop for $25.00 Im trying to raise some money for a cat who needs surgery so check out the shop and look around http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheWiseOldCat?ref=si_shop


Well thats it for now Ill post more this weekend :)

  1. Wow, Vanessa! Great post, and I love what you're doing with your photos! I especially like your little Pokemon necklace--it's so cute. And I like this template for your blog. I'm still not satisfied with mine, but it will do for now.

    I know how it is with a particular mystery writer. I enjoy a good Agatha Christie myself. Our latest obsession is the series by Arthur Upfield, the Detective Napoleon Bonaparte mysteries. They're set in Australia and written about the same time as Christie's. First, my uncle (from Australia) sent them to my aunt in New Mexico. She liked them so much she sent them to my mom, my mom sent them to me, I passed them on to my husband, and now we're shipping them back to my mom again because she wants to reread them. We're hooked!

    Have a terrific weekend! I'm glad you're "back in the saddle" with your blog.

  2. P.S. What's the difference, I wonder, between a "follower" and a "member"? I want to get e-mail notices of your new posts.

  3. Ive been trying to figure that out..Because I could have sworn I was following more blogs..than I see listed hmm

    Im also trying to figure out how to put tags on the blog listing ( I see you have them but Im not sure where to put them )

    Ive never heard of that author ..Ill have to look into it

    I just finished reading Jack Kerouacs "On the road"
    Im glad I finished it to because I didnt really like it much
    I just thought Id try reading something different from the stuff I usually read.
    Ive also started reading my old childhood favorites Nancy Drew..the Hardy boys..You really never grow out of them :)
