ten things for thursday … ♥

Raising up Rubies



it’s no secret that i love vintage
i love a certain kind of vintage though
everything is vintage now-adays
so i think we need to classify vintage in certain categories
my category is the pretty, pastel-ish, girly vintage
i think that’s why i love vintage linens so much 
they combine my love of fabric & vintage all into one piece of soft flowery goodness
i have lots of vintage sheets wrapped on fabric boards in my studio
and i love love love finding new things to make with them!
here’s 10 projects that i want to make.
like yesterday.
🙂

oh, and guys! 
if you want to pin these projects 
please do so from the original site
thanks. you all are the best.

Yellow Maxi Dress from Running with Scissors
i was so excited to make this for me and my girls … i actually bought the pattern last year
too many ideas … not enough time



Fabric Covered Shelves from Emmmy Lizzzy
one crazy day i woke up with the idea to decoupage my pantry shelves 
with sewing pattern paper
i held up for a couple years, now… some of the edges are starting to show wear & tear
i think i want to wake up with this idea next … heehee




Wrapped Wreath from In Color Order
this is at the top of my list! so pretty ♥





storage baskets from a pretty cool life
i couldn’t find a how-to for these on the site, but she mentioned a tutorial was in the works!

vintage sheets together with paper? doesn’t get any better than this…

diy A-frame tent by Cakies
my girls would love this for summer time backyard fun

now go thrifting! hit garage sales!
find yourself some of this goodness

  2. I seriously love all of these! Your stash of vintage linens makes me drool. I have some linens too, bbut practically none of the thrift stores around me carry them. Sniff sniff. Lol.

  7. What fun beautiful ideas. I wish I had vintage sheets or knew where to get some! I never have the same luck as others at garage sales or thrift stores. Look forward to seeing some of these projects on your blog in the future 🙂
