What is it that draws us to something Vintage? I love to go into an antique mall and browse for hours (to my hubby's dismay). My grandmother had a very small house in Prescott, Arizona, that had a total of four very small rooms and one bath. One whole room was devoted to her "Treasures". Little figurines, cups and saucers, old lace, etc., from times gone by. I remember her old cookie jar the best, where she kept her "little money", hidden so the passing Gypsies wouldn't discover it there. What wonderful memories I have of that special little room of Grandmothers! The nostalgia of vintage is such a draw to our hearts.
I love the look of Vintage in Box Charms, using old photos, vintage adds, etc. I wanted to share a few of my new Soldered Box charms I created, in memory of Grandmother's special little room, in a vintage collage style. A couple are from memories from my childhood days, the Dollie on the car hood (she's quite sassy LOL) and the "Breakfast at Tiffany's", which is now vintage (which means I am old LOL).
