Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Vintage St. Patrick's Day

The Luck of the Irish is coming up on us soon. I love all the green and since my name is Colleen I think I have a little bit of that Irish in me. I thought I would show you some really nice vintage St. Patrick's Day items that you can go shopping for. :)



What a cute face on this vintage Leprechaun pin from SittingKittyVintage. I think he is so cute. 





Need a candle holder to add to your St. Patrick's Day decorating? Well this one from KleymannsCloset has 3 cute Leprechaun's on it. 





Are you planning to have a St. Patrick's Day celebration at your house? If so, you will need a tablecloth for your table and you can get this one from fromthemousenest to cover your table. 




And if you need some glasses to put on that table reshopgoods has these available. 




So if you are going to celebrate St. Patty's Day there are several vintage items available for your party. 

Have fun!

Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Vintage Valentine's

I always like to look at things from yesteryear...yes....I am aging myself. LOL! :) I thought with Valentine's Day just around the corner we could look at some vintage Valentine's Day from Etsy.........

Of course  you can't look back at vintage Valentine's Day without showing the cards that all of us from way back when use to give to our school mates. This is a nice collection from smileitsvintage.




How about this really cute bell figure with all it's hearts that AvasHopeChest has. It is so cute and colorful.




Remember the chocolate boxes they use to have? This one from pinkchicboutique shows just how elaborate they were. Very pretty. 




How about this fold out Valentine's card from the 1900's that talkingbirdie has! Talk about elaborate and detailed. They really made some neat things back then. :)




Well these are just a few of the vintage Valentine's that I found to go down memory lane. Hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine's Day!
