The Vintage Bricoleur is One

The Vintage Bricoleur is One.

  We celebrated our Anniversary last wekend with 20% off most items in the store, some great Giveaways, refreshments and fun visiting.

 

I am still working on editing the photos from my big camera, but I wanted to share some random shots from my iphone.

French wire shelf hanging just outside the door.

We always have a chalkboard with the definition of "bricoleur" displayed somewhere.  Here is one hanging over a vintage chest done in Annie Sloan Chalk Paint - Old White.

 Here the mantle that  Danny and I were working on up to the last minute.  I love the way it turned out. I will share more about how we created it soon.

The vintage newspaper books didn't last long.  This was a fun display.  It has many layers.  As items sold we just made adjustments to it.

 

There were lots of pretty winter decorations.

This adorable little snowman found a new home.

Snowshoes, tree globe, red table scrarf, paper mache snowman, and snowball candle.

  I love it all!

 

 Headbands and necklaces from Bombshell Betty Shop.

These are some of her leather cuffs. 

 I love mine!

 

Sparkly tree topper.

Scrabble ornaments and a "Let It Snow" hoop.

 

Vintage sheet music wrapped boxes.

Paper flower gift tags.

 

It you notice, most of the items are handcrafted and repurposed items.  We try to carry that theme throughout the store.  Everyone was so creative!  Sheet music, game pieces, hoops, buttons, hardware, leather, sewing notions and burlap were all used.

 Available now in the store.
