little wing

 on the last day of april we stumbled across a victim of plate glass windows. i couldn't resist using my camera to capture his beauty before laying him to rest under a mugwort plant.

from the hills to the sea

this sunday i am back at alameda point with a load of vintage goodies. so fun pulling out the spring and summer pieces to share....

last sunday, my daughter and i showed at the nevada city craft fair. enjoyed seeing so many friendly faces and finding homes for some of my handmade jewelry, vintage dresses, and my daughter's latest zines. thanks to all who stopped by!

a few new-ish fhf pieces--determined to add the unsold ones  to the etsy shop soon

sasha of astral boutique gifted my daughter this dress and, of course, she had to change into it right. that. minute. it is a perfect frock for the time and space she occupies these days.  thanks, sa!

see you soon?

tomorrow, april 7, i will have a booth at the alameda antique faire, a.k.a antiques by the bay. if you are there, come by my booth at J8 to say hello. getting my spring cleaning on and bringing hella vintage at ridiculously good prices---you know you want some ;-)

later in the month, on april 28 to be exact, i will be back up in nevada city for the spring craft fair. i will bring a well-curated rack of vintage, plus new spring/summer fhf designs (yay!).

last weekend's yard and estate sales were kind to me

 

fortrait #3

obsessed with the four "fortraits" recently posted by Encyclopedia Pictura

the one above is especially endearing to me as it was shot somewhere --as i have previously mentioned -- i like to take my kids, but it is well worth your time to view them all four short films

we came we saw we tired

there's no business like show business....

the booth, my knees, her doodles

her style

my style

and so another vintage expo is done. with memories of friendly faces and inspiring chats. see you again in september, exhibition hall....

p.s. happy happy spring! oh spring, i look forward to avoiding the internets even more so now that you are here

on the run

can't believe it is already that time again, but it is off to the Vintage Fashion Expo in San Francisco this weekend. 

put the etsy shop on vacation mode so i can focus on wrangling two tons of vintage into a westward moving automobile.  yeah, good luck with that, me.
