Lace Giveaway!

 It's been awhile since I've had a lace giveaway, so I think it's high time for another one!  In this fun giveaway, you not only get 2 hand stamped vintage tags with a total of 6 different types of vintages laces (like the ones above), but you'll also get a set of these tags, too:

The pink tags have a total of 8 yards of French Valenciennes lace!

That's right: the lucky winner gets all 4 tags (the tags will be similar to, but not exactly like, the tags pictured).

Just leave comment here in order to be entered to win.  BONUS: if you spread the word about this giveaway by either tweeting, posting on Facebook, or mentioning the giveaway on your blog, you can have an extra chance!  So, if you spread the word like crazy, you'll get as many as 4 chances to win!  Just tell me about it in your comment here, and I'll add your extra chances to the hat.

I will put all the names in a hat and draw the winner on Friday, April 29, at 3pm Central Time (assuming, that is, that I can tear myself away from watching the Royal Wedding over and over and over.....).  So, hurry and enter!  Good luck!!  :)

Antique Lace Happiness

I'm lucky to have piles of "new" (new to me) lace on my office floor -- big piles of every type of lace you can imagine!  What a super way to spend an afternoon, sorting through all of these wonderful old treasures!

I find it both exciting and calming to sort through and organize these types of new finds.  Is that weird?  :)

Most of these goodies will find their way into my shop (some already have!), but others I just won't be able to part with.  I hope to add to the piles later this week in Round Top!

New Vintage Lace Kits -- Shop Update

Just popping in to share a quick shop update: I've put together these new vintage lace kits, and they're available now in the shop.  Each kit contains 2 hand stamped tags, and each tag has 4 yards of Valenciennes lace -- for a total of 8 yards of lace per kit!

Happy Creating!  :)
