Vintage Style Seam Binding

I just LOVE vintage style seam binding, it it so soft and silky, the colours are fabulous and it is so versatile!

It is made from 100% Rayon - Rayon is a manufactured regenerated cellulose fiber. Because it is produced from naturally occurring polymers, it is neither a truly synthetic fiber nor a natural fiber; it is a semi-synthetic fiber. Rayon is also known by the names viscose rayon and art silk in the textile industry. It usually has a high luster quality giving it a bright sheen. Wikipedia

This seam binding is great for adding a tag to a package, tied around a gift, hoarding for decoration in a pretty glass jar or you could even sew with it and use it for it’s original purpose - the possibilities are endless!

I currently have 24 different colours in my shop modestly priced at £1.05 for 3 meters, however there are over 200 available colours, with imagination provoking names such as Glamour Peacock, Fireweed, Rancho Red and Soapstone.

Alice in Wonderland

I spend a lovely afternoon on Friday trawling an Antiques Market in Towcester and it seemed to turn into a Alice in Wonderland themed event with my first find being this beautiful picture...

I am not sure it is specifically meant to be a picture of 'Alice' however the little blue dress, white pinny and curly locks are so reminiscent of the Disney image I just had to buy it.

This purchase was promptly followed by a gentleman stallholder propositioning me...

'I forgot I had this lurking under the table would you be interested'

OF COURSE I was!!

As I am sure you can imagine I was delighted and as I handed over my pennies, two people approached me eyeing up my new purchase with obvious envy!!

So my 'Alice in Wonderland' day out has prompted me to show off all my themed tags as promised a few weeks ago!

I hope you like...

Vintage Style Tags

I started making my vintage style tags mainly for personal use, however as I began to receive so many kind comments from family and friends I decided to advertise them in my Ebay Shop to see if other people may be interested?!?!?!

Well, they have proven to be very popular especially for vintage weddings and tea parties and the icing on the cake is that I so enjoy making them!!

I currently have a few designs in my shop (see below) but I have just spent my Easter weekend designs some new ones - from ballet dancers to Beetles (of the VW kind) Alice in Wonderland to French chic!! I will be photogrpahing them over the next few days (when I can get good light) and I will let you have a peek, but for now here are some of my favourite oldies...

My tags have already been used for...

• Gift decoration
• Placesettings
• Favours
• Preserve Labels
• Price tags

Personalisation available and discounts offered on large orders please contact me for further details!!

Easter Wedding Ideas

Although as I look out my window it is heavily raining, the 1st of March officially marked the beginning of my favourite time of the year - Spring.

Spring is the season that signifies new beginnings with the blooming of vibrant flowers, birds beginning to chirp, butterflies coming out and a fresh, crisp feeling filling the air. Spring also plays host to Easter, when families gather, exchange chocolate gifts and enjoy a lovely lamb dinner - so all in all what a fabulous time of the year marry!

Here are a few bits of Easter inspiration from my shop...
