Old Advertisment Cards from late 1890's Lovely Ladies and little Girls in Dreamy Pastels
Hi everyone! Welcome.
Today I have some late 1890's advertisment cards for you. I selected ones in soft creamy pastel colors. Light teal blue paired with pink is a favorite combination. Please enjoy them for your personal use and enjoyment.
Hope you are having a nice summer. Much love, Louise
These pastel-colored images are beautiful, Louise. I just love them, as I do so many of the images you post. They will look wonderful on the vintage cards I make. Thank you so much for all the thought and care you put into choosing the images you post. It is greatly appreciated! With kind regards, Enjay xo
OH my these are LOVELY....thank you...I will use them as labels on some bottles I have here at the house, may add some TEXT to them too. I will play with them some. Rose
The Legacy is a small, but very full thrift store. Everything has been donated and the proceeds go to the Sebastopol Senior Center. The most wonderful thing is what they specialize in; sewing, quilting, fabric, crafty stuff, yarn, books, scrapbooking, stamping, embroidery, ribbon and trim etc. It’s like a Jo-Ann’s or Michaels’ thrift store. They also have vintage lace and linens. This little shop has been my soft place to fall. It’s magical. Now onto the buttons… My last name, Bouton, is French for button. Ironically I am now in charge of the button donations at the Legacy and I LOVE it. Wanting to make a pretty button card to sew the loose buttons on led me to the discovery of clip art. Luckily I found "JustSomethingIMade" and "the Graphics Fairy". Kindred spirits! Then I realized I had 1000’s of similar images, dating to the 1700’s. Inspired, I created a blog to share all this ephemera with you creative ones. All because of buttons! And that is how Bumble Button came to exist.
