Now, what really makes this special are the elements from A Vintage Girl: Butterfly wings with hardware, dressform, pulley, pipe, hanger, and a piece from the Hometown paper collection (unavailable) that I printed onto tissue paper, then tore randomly and placed on the sides.
In cleaning up my craft room I discovered all sorts of doodads, buttons, trims, even a light - I also discovered there's great inspiration to be found when you find stuff you've forgotten about! I thought back to my younger years of sewing with my mom and our trips to the fabric store - so I made little bolts of fabric from my newly discovered old stash!
I couldn't be happier with how this turned out! It was so fun putting everything together! And the box is actually a jewelry box I had gotten from Goodwill for $2!
I want to encourage you to pick up some fun stuff from A Vintage Girl - you won't be disappointed! Vintage, steampunk, stickers, canvas - more items coming soon!
I'm entering this at Classic Design Team Challenge, More Mixed Media Challenge, and A Vintage Journey!
