Prim Clothespin Bag and Found Treasures

This clothespin bag is my most recent sewing project.  It has three of the old clothespins in the pocket and a coffee stained sock on the front.  I thought it would look cute in a laundry room.

This is a shelf in my office/sewing room.  I love all of the prim collectibles on the shelf.  There are old shoes, old pictures, an old school slate, McGuffy readers, a little prim dress and candles.


I went grocery shopping today and of course, I always find time to stop off at some of my favorite shops.  I was delighted today when I found these old child's shoes with the buttons on the side.  I immediately fell in love with them and brought them home and put them on my shelf (picture above).




I also found these old salt and pepper shakers in the same shop.  They look great sitting in my Hoosier Cupboard.

I showed the shop owner pictures of three of my prim dolls that I made and she wants me to bring in some to sell in her shop.  That was exciting!

  3. I'm with the girls--decent baby shoes are hard to find and very pricey! I have one pair of high buttons, along with 6 pair of 50's walkers. I try to find old baby shoes to make pin keeps out of.
    Love your clothespin bag....
