Vintage items for your art projects

Vintage optical lenses

In the late 1800s and early 1900s, optometrists used these lenses for vision
testing. Artists have discovered them as great ways to frame little vignettes
for pendants, charms and other artistic projects. All measure just
under 1-1/2" in diameter. Designs, metals and lens thicknesses vary. All are antique. Use Ranger's Glossy Accents or JudiKins
Diamond Glaze to adhere photos, ephemera and text... and use our ball
chain
to make pendants! $7.50 each

One vintage optical lens: $7.50

Vintage metal embellishments
We discovered these gorgeous embellishments in dusty old boxes in a jewelry
manufacturer's warehouse. Most of them are raw (unplated), and age has
given them a lovely aged patina.
Like the paper we used in the
photographs above?
It's Remy from 7 Gypsies.

Vintage ephemera package
Vintage ephemera is my favorite material for making
collages, adding interest to journal pages, and crafting unique greeting cards.
For some projects, we are happy with photocopies, but sometimes you just want
the genuine vintage item!
We have a limited supply of the collage parts shown above. The package includes
a collectible vintage Hershey's Syrup playing card, playing cards with bird
images, Fostoria certificates from the 1930s, an unused Cherry Blossoms soda
label, page from vintage FAA book of aircraft approach diagrams, lovely
foreign text pages, music pages, pages from a 40-year-old postage stamp
directory, Bingo card, tickets, oversized robin's egg blue and salmon shipping
tags, a vintage practice target, printed inventory tag, plus a few newer items.
Every piece is the real thing -- no scans or color copies!
