What's a girl to do when she finds BOXES of these.....
..with THIS inside???
..she makes these....
..and LOTS of them!
I found boxes full of the most amazing vintage gauze tape (no adhesive) the perfect hint of vintage aging and just the right width to make some fabric roses! Do ya think i grabbed more than a handful of them? Ahh....NOPE! I didn't want to open these boxes before i purchased them at an estate sale and really wasn't sure what i was getting here so i only grabbed a few. I thought that there might have been an "adhesive" on them as it did say "tape" on the box and this stuff was OLD! I mean...just look at the nostalgic boxes! (the owner was a nurse "in her day" and , by the looks of her medicine cabinet, she pilfered quite a few of these from her "place of employment!" LOL!) Live and learn dear junkin' friends! If I ever see these sweet boxes again...I'll be pilfering them myself!!
Happy French Friday!
