a tiny heart shaped box....


its a tiny heart shaped box...
with a bit of vintage french moire wallpaper along the outside.
filled with ruffles, flowers, and a rolled up note~


i have been collecting tiny millinery flowers for years.  the tiny velvet ones are my favorite, but i also am
completely taken by the sweet starched cotton ones with rolled fabric stems.


here is a box for you to start your own collection~  


 here is the vintage french wallpaper i used.  it has beautiful tiny pink buds and a moire pattern.  rolled up and tied with ribbon, just for you...


lately i have been seeing gorgeous vintage valentine candy boxes like this one from such pretty things.
with lovely satin ruffles and vintage millinery flowers...
what a gorgeous combination.


more delicious ruffles on pinterest of course.
i always buy vintage crocheted heart pin cushions at thrift stores...


if the satin ribbon is stained or ruined i just take it out.  this blue heart pin cushion has a few millinery flowers added along with a vintage velvet hat bow.


pink is always irresistible...



this tattered and stitched pin cushion is just stunning.  the colors and the embroidery are perfect!
i am starting to see hearts everywhere~
enjoy,
julie

I remember my grandma having a heart shaped crocheted pin cushion in blue. I wonder what happened to it...? Thanks for the memory.
