Description

The listing, A vintage craft box full of Mom's potpourri of craft stuff and more! has ended.

UPDATE: This is turning out to be my friend's greatest idea because as I find other stuff that just doesn't seem right to list alone, I can add it to this! This time it's vintage spools of thread, circular needles, border with little crystal plastic things, and sewing machine needles. And more will come, I'm sure!

A friend of mine came over today for tea, because it’s snowing and that’s our custom when it snows. I was telling her about Mom’s craft stuff and how much sorting has to be done to find things to list, and how one box can have so many different things in it. She said show me. So I went and got a box. And I showed her. And she said, why don’t you just list the whole box? I said sometimes you say really dumb things. But this isn’t one of those times.

So here it is. Pictures 1 and 2 are of the box as I got it from the craft storage. The rest of the pictures, and there’s a bunch, is what’s in it. It all goes to the winner. No tier here.

But see, it’s not all for one kind of crafty person. What we have here is flowers and buttons and beads and needles and elastic and a pin cushion, and bra back repair and some enormous needles, and a couple pendants, a single maraca, two shells, a couple pompoms, some metal things, and other stuff. It’s all in the pictures, but it’s a pretty broad spectrum.

And those buttons? They don't all have their backs on them. I think Mom was going to glue them onto something.

A couple people could prolly use all this.

So have fun!

My cat and I are the perfect match. We each only have one fault. I smoke, and she forgives me. She sheds, and I forgive her.

Do ask questions if you have any,

Love it !...Mom taught me to sew when I was 9 . I'm 46 now. We lost Mom and Dad in 1995 and when I get to missing them ,I can get out my sewing and picture sewing with her and Dad reading or watching TV....Even if I don't win (which I really want to), Thanks for bringing up these great memories
