the junque seeker july 2015 the junque seeker a blog about junque i find and what i do with it thursday july 23 2015 relics and art journal classes earlier this month jackie taught a class at paper crown using sandra evertson s relics and artifacts line as is always the case with jackie s classes it was a lot of fun we made some lovely pieces and learned techniques to use on other elements from the line i think most every one of us had either already purchased some for future projects or did that night in class we embellished this reverse canvas to hold a beautiful velvet covered sacred heart we also made a smaller sacred heart to use as we wish on a journal cover in a frame to hang on the wall or however mine came home like this with a tiny rose at the top i ve been playing with it and trying out some of my vintage embellishments i think it s going to end up as pictured below jackie always features class pics on her blog but as an added bonus sandra featured jackie s class on her blog here you can also see sandra s gallery on her site and get more inspiration for using the relics and artifacts line in your creations i love her painted hearts here last saturday my friend chris and i took a class called art journaling with birds at paper arts in edmond each participant received a hand made fabric journal cover with several pages inserted more pages can be added during class we mainly prepared our backgrounds using water colors and used the tim holtz crazy birds stamps and other bird stamps none of my pages are completely finished but if i wait to blog about them when they re finished it could be years so here are a few of the pages that i actually got paint stamps cutouts onto this one will have painted birds added over the stamps words borders etc the page above is almost done but still needs a few little flourishes my stamping skills are far from professional i ve not really used water colors since i was a child the set i took to class included lovely glittery colors but they were very pale and probably not the best for this particular project this last page is probably my favorite although it s barely begun you can sort of see the glow of the background paint i love dots even messy ones especially in green and aqua this journal will be fun to play in on a winter day posted by the junque seeker at 12 03 am 5 comments tuesday july 21 2015 saturday finds and upcoming etsy listings last saturday i had a art journal class at 10am but there was an estate sale in another part of town that had a few interesting items i decided to get up early so i could drop some orders at the post office hit the sale and still make it to class i rarely go to sleep before 3 am so getting up at 7 00 is quite a feat the purse and glasses were the main things i was after at the sale so i was pleased to get both i love the purse chartreuse is a favorite color but the 1950s cat eye glasses are amazing and certainly the most ornate i ve ever come across the j hasday frames are gold and all the faux pearls and rhinestones are in place these would be so cute as sunglasses they re too small for me so they ll be going to my etsy shop the hosiery may seem like an odd purchase but i ve sold several pair on etsy so i buy them when i find them in the original packaging postal scales are also popular more as a display item than a useful piece of equipment so i was happy to find this larger than usual one from 1956 it s over six inches high others that i ve sold were around 4 1 2 inches high i ll be listing a bit more lace this week too including this lot i have a couple of class projects to show in my next post hope you ll check back oops almost forgot i also found some cute tiny trees and glass ornament picks it s not too early for christmas crafts posted by the junque seeker at 8 37 pm 3 comments thursday july 16 2015 vintage lace lots if you ve read my blog for a while you know that i love vintage lace i do use it occasionally for crafting and sewing but mostly i just love having it and looking at it recently i was honored that the amazingly talented suzy of suziqusthreadworks found my etsy shop and made a purchase today i was even more honored that she used some of that lace along with others she had on hand to make another beautiful creation and included a link to my shop in her blog post most of my readers are familiar with suzy in fact i found her via another blog that i follow if you haven t read her most recent post click here to see her latest work just gorgeous her blog followers have been quick to view my shop but unfortunately i was unprepared as i usually am and my lace listings are minimal i ll be adding new listings to my shop beginning friday the photos in this post are a sneak peak at a few of the lace lots and shabby lace lots i ll have on offer along with an inspiration kit or two thank you for stopping by posted by the junque seeker at 11 42 am 3 comments tuesday july 14 2015 friday finds trim quilt pieces and more what s not to love about a big pile of plush vintage pom pom trim i just wish i could have accurately captured the beautiful shades the blue is a bit darker and richer the green is a wonderful mossy shade and the purple is deep and dark the orchid is the closest to its actual color the green pom pom trim came from a sale this past friday the purples and blue are from a sale put on by the drama department of a local university last month thanks to cindy at paper crown for giving me a heads up about this one it was less than a block from where i work part time but i hadn t seen any listings and would have missed it this fun trim came from the same sale it coordinates perfectly with this trim that s in my etsy shop now both would look great on any aquatic or mermaid themed project i also bought a few hats at the drama department sale mainly for the flowers i haven t been able to make myself disassemble this one yet it s a bright really bright spot of color in my craft room there were two batches of quilt pieces that i couldn t leave behind at last friday s sale the first set has a few pieces in various stages of completion plus hundreds of little hexagons cut from old feed sacks and ready to sew i love how the original owner used a pickle jar label as her pattern the other quilt pieces are for a variation of the sunbonnet sue pattern this one has an unusually shaped bonnet with a flat crown it also appears to be one of the simpler versions with no apron the hat shoe and arm pieces are cut from solids but i love all the feed sack fabrics she used for the dress pieces all of these items except the hat will be listed soon in my etsy shop i took one of jackie s fun classes last week and will be showing what we made in my next
