Vintage valentines


One of my favorite collections is my vintage valentine collection.  I started collecting them at least 15 years ago... I saw a bunch at an antique store for a quarter each and couldn't resist.


Since then I've found many at garage sales and estate sales.  I once got 5 ziplock bags full at an estate sale.  I refer to it fondly as the Brady Bunch estate sale.  The house was like a time capsule from the 70's.  I was in heaven.


I color copy them every year and use them to decorate my house.  I will be doing some projects with them too.  


Lots of love!

  2. I'd like to play a "Share the Wealth" card! Do you have a flickr where you have scanned them to share?
