glitter toes

RED lips...

Vintage Treats is ALL about vintage fashion! And nothing goes better with a vintage outfit than RED LIPS! So many different shades of red... but my favorite is a deep dark red with a touch of shine.

Shown on this beautiful girl that I photographed is a MAC brand.
I will be hosting a give-away soon... Stay tuned.

IS a snow globe really a snow globe without the water? Probably not.
But will we call it snow globe because it includes Snow in a globe. Yes. :)

I saw these adorable little displays at one of my favorite stores and decided they would not be hard to make.

Finding the supplies was not too hard... I first headed to my local goodwill for some jars and a local flea market where I found the sphere. Cost of jar- $0.69 Cost of Sphere- $6.00

While at the flea market I found contents for the inside of my globes. 1. Mr. Reindeer- $2.00 2. Bottle brush tree- $2.50 and a larger white glitter tree- $4.50

I visited my local craft store and found all kinds of assortments of snow... I chose glitter:)

I then needed to get started. I first started with the jar arrangement. Choosing the large tree that I bought, I got glued the tree to the lid of the jar.

then you fill your container with snow, flip over onto lid, Shake, and screw on tightly. My kids have enjoyed shaking the container over and over allowing more glitter snow to cover the tree.







With the other container, I needed to make a base. I decided to use a paper doilie. {I love using these anytime I can, they are cheap, and they remind me of Grandma:)

I attached the deer, and bottle brush tree to the paper doilie, added snow and then hot glued the sphere on the edges and placed on top of the display. I then cut out cardboard{not shown} and hot glued to the bottom of the doilie to secure for shaking purposes.



completed.



Vintage Treats

photography by vintage treats I have done photography for a few years. I actually bought my first camera to be able to take quality pictures of my vintage finds that I sell online. Then people started asking me to take their pictures. After doing shoot after shoot I found myself being unhappy. I did not just want to take pictures of people. I did not want to do studio looking work that looked like everyone else. I went on a journey to find my niche'. I love old pictures. I have many black and white photos of my ancestors that make me smile. These tell the story of my life. The people before me. I love polaroid and 60's pictures of my parents. I love all things vintage. I love anthropologie magazines and vintage clothes. My home is filled with vintage goods that I find while out hunting for treasures. I am always on the hunt for a good peice. So, It came to me one day. I realized that I needed to incorporate my love for vintage looks into my photography. I have done a variety of shoots that have had a vintage feel to them and I LOVE them. They encapsulate my personality and my customers are happy because they had the same vision. We share the love of vintage. So, I am embarking on the new journey of "Vintage Treats" where I will be offering vintage inspired work that refects my personality. It will involve not only photography, where I will specialize in vintage looking work only, but projects, vintage finds, and all sorts of special "treats" for you to follow and purchase. I want Vintage Treats to inspire people that share the same love for vintage things that I do. I want to take a moment to thank ALL of the people that have allowed me to take their pictures over the last few years. Because of you all, I am where I am today. photography by Vintage Treats
