I have a thing about stationery supplies...and I know I'm not alone...something about feeling organized...
and ready to tackle any project at hand...and when the supplies are of a vintage nature...all the better!
A couple of weeks ago...while I was supposed to be "working"...I snuck away to an estate sale...just a couple of blocks away...picked up a few things in the garage...but it was on Sunday when I returned for the "we are ready to make a deal to get rid of everything" sale...that I found the real treasures...
These are the things that make my collage artwork sing...old raffle tickets with their faded color...
the red bordered gummed labels...
a series of numbered tags...#1 to #24 (but #2 is missing...mmm...)
This old paintbrush is priceless...
and the well-loved typewriter eraser that is ever so gently worn in just one spot...
over the years, correcting misspelled words...
Kim Klassen is hosting a new link-up called Friday Finds...sharing whatever special finds you discover during the week...not anything grand or glorious...but rather those simple pleasures...that can bring such delight...I think its going to be my new Friday addiction...that is, after I check out the estate sale ads in the local paper...
