The folks at Creating Vintage Charm were so sweet to include one of my Halloween bottles in their Fall 2011 issue! Cover. Photo of bottle. And a lovely credit for my Etsy shop! Love this mag! Jeanine ...
What do you do when you have an abundance of vintage sheet music? Why you make sheet music holiday cones of course!: Very easy to make and I think the sheet music is just so perfect for the holidays.
