    Show us your vintage hats!

    Thanks, Diva and Mary! Thanks, Lauren! I haven't made any since I moved... I've just been so busy with my other business. :o It pays much better than my millinery work did and very little overhead. Well, except when I'm feeling the urge to upgrade software like now... :D

    Hairstyist Reccomendations and Referrals

    hmmm... I have a friend who lives in Jamaica Plain... maybe a trip to the salon is in order next time I visit her. :)

    Hairstyist Reccomendations and Referrals

    Yeah, I searched the internet high and low for reviews of salons... nothing. I don't have anyone to ask because we're fairly new here, and I work from home and don't know anyone.

    Achieving that vintage look, via PhotoShop

    Just goes to show that the artist behind the tool is more important than the tool itself. :)

    Achieving that vintage look, via PhotoShop

    I love it! Nice work! Speaking of Photoshop, have you seen the new CS4 yet? I got my upgrade yesterday and am having so much fun!

    heh heh, I'm no model... I think I'll leave that to Ingrid (the plaster head) for now. :p

    Thanks! Wow, she must be a super fast knitter to do it for that price!

    Dresses: Which Decade?

    I said 40's too... specifically 1938-1945. Not that I don't love earlier 30's and early 50's at times too. :) As MissAmelina said, it depends on my mood. Right now, it's mostly 50's as I think the maternity fashions are more flattering than 40's for the most part.

    Ironing Woes...Love the vintage Hate the ironing

    Thanks, Miss Neecerie. No springy thing... the original shredded cover is actually nailed to the board on the underside! I think I might have some of those sheet elastic things somewhere. I'll have to try that.

    Hairstyist Reccomendations and Referrals

    Trying to decide if it's worth it to drive 2 1/2 hours to have my hair done! Hollywood Ultra appears to have moved to New Hampshire. I don't suppose anyone has recommendations for someone in Rhode Island or maybe north eastern CT? I'm guessing not... My hair was getting horrible, so I...

    Ironing Woes...Love the vintage Hate the ironing

    I have a cabinet ironing board too in the kitchen. House was built in the late 40's. The cover is shredded though, and it's not quite full size. I really need to look and see if I can find a new cover for it.

    How tall are you, Ladies?

    Reviving an old thread because I can't sleep. I'm 5'7" ... the short one of the family along with my aunt who is the same height. I always expected to be tall growing up because I was always taller than everyone in school, and my mom is 6', but I just grew very fast and then stopped! I...

    Lush Life

    That's actually pretty silly. Just because it's natural doesn't mean one can't be allergic to it. If that were the case, no one would be allergic to cat dander or pollen. :p I love Lush's Ocean Salt face scrub though, and their deodorant is the only one DH can wear without breaking out.

    Thanks, Lorena and Lizzie. Nice finds, Miss Bella!! I'm very jealous of your thrift store dress! Your Anthropologie cardigan looks very vintage on you -- much more so than it did online.

    Show us your vintage hats!

    Thanks again! A few were from ebay. I think only two were ones I got in shops all the years I lived in San Francisco -- vintage hat prices there were just usually outside my budget. The rest I've gotten in only a year and a half since moving to the east coast. They are just so...

    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    I have that book. It is a very good resource. :) There is a 1950's one as well.

    Show us your vintage hats!

    Thanks, Ladies. Unfortunately, they don't get out as much as I'd like nowadays. I'm much more likely to just wear a hair flower lately.

    Best HOT CURLERS/ROLLERS out on the market

    ok...I'm horrible...I just ordered some too! I should just start calling myself a hair curling implement collector at this point. lol I figure if nothing else they will be really nice and compact for when I travel.

    Cardigans, cardigans, cardigans!
