Vintage Christmas Balls

Found these original 50's satin ornaments and added ribbon. I want to sell them on Etsy but am not sure how much people would pay for them. Do they look retro enough? Or just "found them in my mom's basement?" How much could I price them for?

I refinished this little cupboard in "shabby chic" style. Thought about selling it, but I like it so much I think I'll keep it.

Sewing Projects

I made these a little while ago. I am getting a little better at sewing, which means, I can sew in a straight line...sometimes.
I love the toy box/bag. Its big, can be shoved on the side of the couch. I think I do best with no patterns to follow. Everything I've made, I've just made up. But last fall I tried making a skirt to a pattern, no good. Its still sitting in my closet, unfinished.

I made these little onsies for Quinn the other day. The top one is supposed to be the seahorse from "The Life Aquatic" but I'm not that great of an artist. I like the owl the best.  (Amy I stole the idea from Jackie, if she finds out, tell her that copying is the highest form of flattery).
