Antiques & Vintage Collectibles

This is a vintage chalkware Bosson Head Brettonne woman wall hanging wall plaque.The head measures 5 and 1/2 inches high by 7 inches wide and is 3 and 1/2 inches deep. The back is stamped with the Bosson logo and the hanging divot is in tact.The color and detail on this head are really vivid and there are no chips on the face. There is a flake on the bottom right lace part of the collar. This head was produced from 1984 to 1992. I just love the cheery expression and detail on her face! This is a wonderful addition to any Bosson collection! Free shipping is available for destinations within the continental United States.

As I’ve said before, I like useful collectibles — and, because I don’t like anything to go to waste, I like to find new ways to make use of old things. Just because something is “old and just laying around,” doesn’t mean it can’t be salvaged or re-purposed. Like the vintage refrigerator crisper drawers, I knew these old wooden desk drawers I’d found could do something new and fabulous… Worn, paint-chippy wood is so charming!

Immediately, I thought of the holidays and the need for low centerpieces which wouldn’t get in the way of seeing family and friends.

Once upon a time, brightly-colored graphics on pressed layers of cardboard in the shape of characters from nursery rhymes, Mother Goose stories, and other childhood tales covered the walls in baby nurseries and children's bedrooms.

I love cooking for family and friends, and as all the pros will tell you, food always tastes more flavourful when it's made with fresh herbs. This quick, kid-friendly project lets you get a head start growing an herb garden before summer comes and will afford the luxury of fresh ingredients year-round. And after a long winter, I'm starved for spring greenery, and these pretty tea tins, brimming with plant life, add welcome colour to a windowsill or kitchen shelf.
