bottled stories...

vintage love...

I spent most of the week on the computer

absorbing all of the info that I could to grow my business,

applying to art shows for this season,

and digging through receipts for our taxes.

(last minute... who me?)

with a scrapbook of vintage photos as my muse,

I sat down this past weekend for some much needed creative time,

and created bottled stories.

vintage photos, beads, buttons, needle and thread and

a few other trinkets, with a chosen word for

each bottle, helps to tell a long forgotten story.

Okay, a story that I envisioned for them,

one that I created by the pose, or the facial expression

in the photo. A chance to share a forgotten photo,

because we all have a story to share.

These photos are from the same scrapbook that

I made this pumpkin with.

All of the photos look to have been taken

by a budding photographer in college.

Some of them are photos of friends from UofM

 and some from MSU,

which at the time was called

Michigan Agricultural College.

Some are from days at the lake with family

and all of them pull at my heart.

I know that I will be making more of these,

as I still have quite a few photos

that have a story to tell.

Although they will be listed as 

pendants with a ball chain for you to wear

around your neck, 

I can also add them to a key fob,

for you to hang from your favorite bag.

If you see one that you would like

before I can get the rest of the pics taken for etsy, 

(not a lot of sun here lately and I need to get individual shots taken)

just send me a msg. 

and I will put up a reserve listing for you :)
