A Teddy Bears Bow Tie?



Dont you just love her?

What would you do with her?

I have waited for a while to see if the right bouquet came along which suited this 'Great Gatsby' style brooch...however no bride was lucky enough...so she is now in my little shop 



What would you create with her? Add her to your best hat? Create your own heirloom bouquet? A ribbon belt? A cute hair pin? A glamorous teddy bears bow tie?

13 of your english pounds people... an utter bargain!

Happy sunny weekend to you all!

Save it!


Remember these?
They are my most viewed blog post, so I thought I would make some more for you :)


Vintage Maps are still one of my favorite things, so where better to start?


My trusty stamps & bakers twine.


These are a joy to make and take me back to our gorgeous flat in Brighton and all the excitement of planning our wedding...such happy memories!

Today August saw how a hole punch worked...he was fascinated and dragged it around the house for a good hour afterwards!

The luggage labels are in my shop now. If you need bigger quantities let me know.

Helping Hands



Trying to photograph items for VM's shop is getting harder and harder with these little intrigued hands around.

He is utterly fascinated by everything...he sat for 10 minutes putting the lid on and off this treen pot before I distracted him with his beloved tractor!



I have upgraded my phone to an iphone this week so I'm hoping it will make my life easier, quicker and most importantly I now have instagram!!!

Oh and the little treen pot? Is for sale HERE!

Happy Friday Everyone

Divine Treasures


Vintage Magpie is having a face lift!
After my last post I realised I need to change things up a bit. My world has changed and I have realised I cannot dedicate myself to my bouquets. They are a solitary creation and a certain happy, noisy, intrigued little boy does not give me a lot of that :)

My heart has been toying with this decision since August came along. Being a first time Mama, you just cannot tell what is possible after your world is altered by these gorgeous little bundles. I could continue, but I feel my brides wouldn't be getting my 'all'; and that does not sit comfortably with me. Whatever I do I want to with all my love & creativity. 

My focus is now on selling small handmade items and Divine little treasures my Magpie eye is attracted too.

It is exciting, refreshing and mostly fun. I cannot wait to see where it takes me.

I hope you still follow my adventures here and I promise to blog a lot more regularly from now on. This is my little part of the world wide web, and I adore it.
