I have always loved vintage ordinary household items. My grandparents were experts at making do with what they had, and fixing up old things that others saw no value in to create beautiful useable items. I have done various types of crafts starting with sewing when I was 13 years old. Since then I have knit, done needlework, quilted and most recently done a variety of paper crafts. I love thrift stores and antique shops and am always looking for that great unique find!!!

Wonder and Magic
When I was a toddler, I remember a fellow coming to my grandparents house who could make things disappear. Fast forward forty-five plus years, I happened to be wondering through a local thrift shop and what do I spy? The little ceramic rabbit that used to be used in the magic tricks. This rabbit came in a plastic bag along with the bear and smaller rabbit for a whopping price of $1.99. This cheerful trio now reside on my bookcase, to remind me that we don't always understand everything that we see, or everything that happens in life.
