You’ve inspired me! As an old retired elementary school librarian, I have a box of old children’s book dust covers. Now I know what to use them for! Thanks!

Meg, did you accidentally stumble into crafter's paradise? Good sport, hubby! I lost track of all the things I wanted to comment on as the goodies just kept coming---Little Women paper dolls, paisley fabric, papers galore, so much great stuff at such great prices. You didn't mention where this store is----though I won't be coming from Canada---I'm curious. Love it all, Hazel

I remember those tables with Christmas pins. Do your DNA again because you'll get a different answer. Thousands more samples allows them to get more specific/better data. Just make sure you're ok with other companies having your DNA. These companies sell it.

Thanks for sharing. I love, love, love vintage things. P.S. There are holes in the casino playing cards as a way to “cancel” them when the casino is finished with them. Can’t wait to see what you do with these precious gifts!

What a fabulous collection of ephemera and that Hummel calendar is so beautiful! Definitely Roman Holiday would be a great base for a journal. One of my favorite movies! Prague is definitely in Czechoslovakia (which is now two countries) but the map was written in Czech so the spellings are different. That is definitely a map that predates 1992 as it has Czech Republic and Slovakia as all one country. Very cool!

The cards with the hole in them were used in a casino once used they can not be put back in to the mix so they put a hole in them and sell them as souvenirs.. what a treasure box!

Yes, of all crafts, junk journal making requires the MOST space! I believe that you have done an excellent job with your space, and I love your retro style ❤ I need to do some purging, which will be very difficult, because I’m the type of person who sees potential in every little thing, haha! I’m so glad you shared your creative space and ideas with us!

I'm guessing Italian. It looks the writing I've seen on a pvc italian recipe table cloth. How about an Italian journal? Lots of avenues you can go down.

Oh my, the fabrics!! I love the vintage babies, the green paisley - so many! I think the lightweight fabric with the little dogs is called Lawn. They used that weave to make shirts for the summer back in the day. And the large house stamp! love that. But the Little Women paper dolls are my favorite! I want to do a Little Women journal.
