Last year, while visiting my sister, I started an art journal using a vintage Rolodex as a holder. I have had a great time using the Rolodex cards to do art journaling on and enjoy the smaller size and the fun way to display them. I have always been a sucker for office supplies....especially vintage ones!
This project has made me want to get creative with using vintage items and altered items as ways to display art journaling. So, as I am on the hunt for vintage items and getting creative with various ways to display art journaling and collage, I have added a new section to my Etsy shop where I will sell items similar to what I am using. I have also started a Pinterest board with ideas for using the type of ephemera and vintage items found in my shop. You can find the
Pinterest board here.
The new items I have added to the shop are:

I am sure someone has already bought that rolodex but I am looking for one soo bad. I have seen several crafters that are using them and I am so wanting to try my hand. Only I would use mine as a technique storage. And maybe a stamp image storage.
ReplyDeleteCody, I will be doing flea market shopping on a road trip in a week and will let you know if I find another Rolodex. :)
DeleteI can't wait to see what you come up with. I love office supplies too. I ran onto your website last year and have really enjoyed your art work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jen! So glad you are here. :)
