The Tilted Tulip: September 2009

Freshly Tilted

I'm in a bit of a posting frenzy these days, as my vintage stash has gotten a wee bit overwhelming as of late, not to mention I'm only days away from giving birth to our first child (well, let's hope it's only days). With some helpful nudging from my dear husband, it's become clear that we need to swap out the vintage goodies to make a bit of room for the new little one.

So, I'm doing my darndest to post everything I've got in the next few days in hopes that all you vintage-lovin' folks might find something that catches your eye! I'm even parting with many items that have been in my personal collection for years. It's time to give my treasures a new home! If you see anything you can't live with out, but perhaps the price doesn't strike your fancy, please contact me. I'm open to wheelin' and dealin'! Let's get this stuff cleared out, folks!

New in the shop today:

Newly Noveled

So it seems like ages since we last posted about our little pet project, but we've finally got some new Novel Novels in the shop. They are a stellar collection, so go check 'em out!

For you folks who are new to the world of Novel Novels, here's a quick intro:

Novel Novels are blank sketchbooks and journals, made from discarded library books. Each is one-of-a-kind, completely unique. We take discarded library books (most of them kids books), and carefully remove the pages. Then we lovingly hand-stitch new paper into the binding. We ONLY use high-quality paper and archival quality bookbinders glue.

We also include a few choice illustrations, scattered throughout the blank book, and we ALWAYS include the card catalog pocket, if available.
