What is it about vintage sewing and crafting tools and supplies that makes me adore them so?
I recently went to Battle Alley Arcade Antiques Mall in Holly and fell madly in love with some wonderful vintage items.
Battle Alley is the MOST charming antique store I have ever visited. It is set up indoors like a small, old-fashioned road with mini-storefronts. You feel like you could find a treasure in every single room and aisle.
I saw this fascinating Traum Dressmaker Guide. I didn't buy it because I wanted to research its purpose to decide if I actually needed it. Etsy to the rescue! I found this listing for a Clinton Pleat Maker AND a Traum Dressmaker Guide. I think the Pleat Maker looks so cool, too!
However, I did purchase these awesome yellow buttons on their original card...
...and turned them into a fabulous pair of upcycled earrings for my line of beautiful JUNK crafts that will be for sale at the Holiday Craft Market!
We hope to see YOU this Saturday!
