New Year, New Thing

My vintage fabric bins runneth over! Starting soon, I'll have bundles of 5 coordinating 12" x 12" squares available for $6.25 at sosovintage. I'm starting with this blue pack, then moving on to yellow and pink and then who knows?! Initially I'll be using up some fabulous remnant pieces, so each of these first packs will be "one of a kind"! Happy New Year!

Thursday's Treasure

Just like my mother, I have a soft spot for angels. Not just any angels, though. I like my angels to be innocent and pure and sweet. You'd think all angels would be this way, but if you've done any kind of thrifting, you know that some angels can be downright tacky and even a bit on the creepy side.

I found these two kissing angels (and their bench!) at a Salvation Army recently. No way was I leaving them behind. And, can you believe it? They are salt and pepper shakers! Awwwwww.

And What We Have Here Are...

... napkin rings!

(ding ding ding to Shabby Vintage Threads for her correct guess!)

Posie Patch Napkin Rings, to be precise.

{Make every day a garden party}

Look for these in sosorosey soon, sweetly packaged in sets of 4 for $30.

What Have We Here?

Any guesses? Don't be shy, leave a comment :)

I'll be back with a *revealing* photo later tonight!

Makeover Monday: 12/27

I was pleasantly surprised this holiday season by the number of people who chose to send me their own baby blankets to be made into personalized stars. I'd love for this to be a year- round occurrence, because I really do love making these special items! These baby blankets came from a loving mom of 3 boys.

~*~

Here they are all "starred" and "charmed"- ready to head off to their new home. Though we didn't work it out to have them for the tree this Christmas, they will certainly have a warm welcome when they come out with the other decorations next year!

~*~

So, happy Monday after Christmas! How are you feeling? Relieved? Tired? Let down? Charged up? Me, I'm nursing a cold, but feeling otherwise very content. We had a really super holiday, and I'm all excited to move into a brand new year. Lots of ideas for new sosorosey goodies are flowing through my mind, so stay tuned for some hints and glimpses this week!

Merry Merry

I had to darken up the color a bit on Sophie's angel so that you could get the full impact of her details! I love the smile and the big butterfly-esque wings. Here's wishing you and yours the happiest of holidays!! Thank you for sharing 2010 with me- I'm looking forward to seeing what 2011 has in store for us all :)

Pillow Perfect

Look at the adorableness that Laura at SaharasHeart created using a fat quarter purchased from sosovintage! You can tell by looking at the whimsical floral embellishment that Laura has a serious eye for detail. Her shop is brimming with sweet pillows that beautifully combine fun and function. SaharasHeart is relatively new to Etsy, so head on over to be one of the first to give her your heart. Thanks so much for sharing your creation with us, Laura!!
