Laura's Special Pillows



My friend Laura Welborn brought me a dress that belonged to her mother and asked me to make her a few pillows out of this dress (should of taken a picture of the dress),I tried to use as much of the dress as possible, even made ruffles around the two small pillows out of the lining. I know she will always think of her mom when she looks at them....ENJOY!!!

Here at the vintage home, I am forever working on custom work for my customers, one of the many things I try to offer to my customers, I thought I would share a few photo's of some of my original work...please inquire at the store for your very own originals.....
These pillows were for one of my favorite customers, Carol C, she brought me a picture out of a magazine and the ceneter fabric, which was the arm cover for her sofa, and asked me to make them....Well here you go, they actually look just like the picture...we were pleased!!!


This invitation pillow turned out beautiful, we put the invite on a vintage hankie.


Invitation pillow for "Sweet Sarah", we made curtains out of this same yellow fabric for her bedroom, and she just loves them!!!

Kim's Birthday

Here is my best friend Kim Shumate, actually at my son's birthday. He made everyone wear "the sombrero" and I think it is fitting to see Kim in it. Well it is her 50th birthday, and I am honored to be a part of it and her life. I don't really know were to begin to tell you about what Kim means to me and my life. It warms my heart to know that I have and will always have a friend like Kim in my life. She is definitely one of those people for me that I met and just knew there was something so special about her, and wanted nothing more than to get to know her, be apart of her life and she a part of mine. And here we are, so many memories we have made together and I know there will be so many more, and what a journey it has been. I have learned so much from her and will continue to learn and grow with our friendship. There are so many qualities that stand out about Kim, I couldn't name them all, but here are a few....Loving, kind generous, warm, patient and always encouraging!!! You mean the world to me..I Love You, Happy Birthday Girlfriend.

New Arrivals!

These new bags are perfect for everything! From market bags to help go green down to tiny lipstick bags for your purse, we've got you covered. I personally love the makeup bags. They have cute designs that really pop with the colors of the season!

New Arrivals!

These "From the Garden" pear soaps will be perfect for all those springtime guests.

These colorful towel-sets are some of my favorite things in the store. Hand-sewn and perfectly paired, these 4-packs come in their own little pouch. So many mothers would love these for their holiday gift. ...at least it's something they'll use!
Annie's niece has a new bad habit of spitting out food...everywhere. Thankfully, these adorable new bibs catch all that and keep the floors stain-free! It's a must-have for any new mom.










Oh, the Ugly-dolls. They're so strange, but kids love them. I guess strange-chic is a new trend. If you're looking for something different, we obviously have it. For the more traditional, our cute stuffed animals are new variations on old favorites and are sure to please!

New Arrivals!

The prints on these journals are so fun, you almost hate to write in them...almost.

We have great new books including party planners, recipe books, and even special remembrance books for Mother's Day!
I just love these long matches. We have them in a number of styles, but the Birthday ones are so festive. They'll last you through years of celebrations...in style!
These K. Hall soaps smell delicious. In scents like flax-linen, milk and pomegranite, everyone that comes in the store first says, "Wow, what smells so good?"
