Speaking of Inexpensive Art Series

Here's one for all the fashionistas out there...

How awesome is this?

And all you'd need to do is dedicate a few evenings to flagging eBay auctions of the best vintage Vogue covers and hit up a few second hand book stores...

    I love this idea! A girlfriend & I were antiquing recently and she found an adorable cover of a vintage issue of Better Homes & Gardens featuring the sweetest little bird.. Adorable, but I digress...

    She was able to get it custom framed & it now sits on her mantle - a perfect compliment & definite conversation starter : )

    Very awesome! One of my favorite sets of casual stationery was notecards with old Vogue covers. You know, I bet you could do some crazy art with a series of cool National Geog. covers.

    My mother-in-law has some funky "art" in her home of vintage game boards. Sounds kind of bizarre, but some of them are really amazing.

    I found your blog via blurking...
    then I spent like 3 hours reading all of your posts. I love to spraypaint just about anything and am about to attempt my first upholstery job. Love your style. I'm so inspired! Thanks for all the eye candy! I'll be making those roman shades for my baby's nursery TOMORROW and I can't wait to post pictures and hear all my relatives ooh and aah over them!
