Hypoallergenic Connection

When someone gives you a hand made gift there is a very special moment when your jaw just drops and time stops. 

My moment arrived in the mail around the time of my birthday.  Beautiful garnet earrings.  The brass wire is gracefully wrapped into hoops and somehow sparkling garnets are attached.  I am in awe of them. They are hypoallergenic so I can actually wear them.  I have very picky ears.

I don't like my neck but I love my earrings 

Look at all the detail 

My friend Charlotte made them for me for my birthday .  

This is her wearing a pair of my fingerless gloves with her babies her beautiful birds:

Vintage Anacin Tin

I sold a vintage tin of Anacin to a person in Greece today.  It has been sitting in my medicine cabinet for years ( I love old stuff) and today it is wrapped in new clothes....

I had a boyfriend in Greece once maybe there is a connection, but he did NOT give me headaches! 

1948 Vintage Silk Brocade Wiggle Dress

I wonder where this sexy Vintage wiggle dress will end up...
Today I made my 100th Etsy Weelambieknits sale.  I am so happy to have reached that milestone.  Meanwhile my vintage shop is selling too and it is taking tons of time to just list and promote, but I love it.

Messy

I have admitted just how messy I am.  

the knitting needle drawer

I posted a picture of my really big mess on this blog:
http://pwaknits.blogspot.com/
I am either the messiest knitter or the only one foolish enough to brag about it.
I have tried to clean up by starting a vintage shop and cleaning out some of the stash.  
Things like this are going to be sold.

vintage thread and buttons are so hard to part with

Then I went out this am and stopped at Joann's for just a little something and came home with this:

what was I thinking?

I have no place to put it.
