Sweet Chandelier Lamp Shades


I'm still getting ready for the Funky Junk Sisters Show
in Austin the end of the month.

I came up from my sewing machine long enough today
to make some mini lamp shades to take with me as well.



Although it is an antique and vintage show,
I am taking just my nettie jane designs.

And these are part of that line.



They are created using vintage clothing, trims, and embellishments.


And they aren't all pink....
I just love this vintage crushed velvet.



I have used it several times before,
And this design always sells quickly.

I'll be sad when the remainder of the garment
is gone.


It's back to the sewing machine tomorrow.
I'm hoping to have it all completed in time :)



 Thanks for stopping by today....
You know I love it when you come....

Today I'm joining Beverly's Pink Saturday....

On the Road Again....Funky Junk Sisters~Austin, Texas


Several weeks ago I received an invitation
to participate in the upcoming Austin, Texas
It is scheduled April 27and 28th.

The Funky Junk Sisters
Junk Salvation Vintage Market

This is the same time as the Country Living Expo.
This is also the first Texas sale they have.
They launch their various events around big events
so as to gain double exposure.

I have been invited to bring my nettie jane designs,
and I'm very excited at this opportunity.



That means for the next two weeks
I will do nothing but create,
hoping to have enough inventory to
cover the sale.


My crochet linens are literally stacked to the
ceiling and in massive piles around the Shoppe.


There are also numerous handbags in various
states of completion as those are going, too.


Some need to be tea stained for overall uniformity...


While others are waiting on linings and handles...





Many new designs are going into the mix.....
It's getting crazy.....


But did I tell you the event is being held at a ghost town
right outside of Austin, Texas?

It is, and this is MY building.....
I'm in overload thinking what I can do with this place....

I'm certain paint is out of the question *wink*....

But it's gonna get "girled up" for sure :)


Thanks for stopping by today,
you know I love it when you come.
