Wishing all of my bloggy buddies a very happy Easter!

I never realized how many pairs of vintage baby shoes I had in the house until I bought yet another pair on Friday. After perusing Pinterest for some upcycling ideas, I decided to keep it simple for this first pair.

I started by stuffing each shoe with Poly-Fil to plump them up. I wasn't sure if I wanted to make them into pin cushions or use them in my spring decor. I opted for the latter.
I added some tea-stained seam binding and faux pearls to each shoe. This one also got a petite French fabric tag.
On top of the Poly-Fil, I added some faux moss (from the Dollar store) and lil' photo holders to hold some vintage French flashcards.
I thought they'd look adorable in this little metal cage I upcycled a couple of years ago. I'm working on the next pair as we speak!

Found a bunch of great loot this morning at our local thrift store. Total cost for everything: $4. Woo hoo!
I have so many of these shabby chic style dishes. I just can't resist
them. It's stamped Made in Austria on the bottom. Can you see the cabbage rose design???
How cute are these baby shoes???
I just had to grab this adorable bunny ornament.
I'm constantly looking for French book paper, which seems to be harder and harder to find. Score: this religious book is in both English and French!
Not a bad haul for $4.
Hoping everyone has a great weekend!

I'm a little obsessed with making my own vintage-inspired flashcards. I whipped some up yesterday for Easter/spring.
I only made a few because, truth be told, I couldn't think of too many Easter/spring-y words.
Plus it's still cold here and the weather has been less than inspiring.
I'm open to any suggestions on additional words!

So much to swoon over at Michael's these days. I popped in last week and was greeted with some much needed spring-inspiration.
Tons of these cuties for Easter.
And lots of Mason jar-inspired love.
I was most taken with the denim. It's everywhere! Loving that ampersand.
I spy: ribbon galore and yes, even denim wrapping paper.
So much to choose from. Where do you begin?????
I didn't buy anything this trip, but I'm definitely going back this week and will likely fill my basket with lots and lots of denim.
