Have A Happy Father's Day!

 


I have always been a luver of antiques & vintage. I continue to haunt antique stores and estate sales...always looking for that buried treasure of all collectibles. I believe in the restoration and preservation of antiques and vintage. I specialize in vintage linens, and textiles. I am learning more about quilts all the time! I have also repaired, refinished, and reupholstered antique furniture.

Take a look at my blogs and antique / vintage websites:

The Vintage Crows Nest Thanks Captain Jack Sparrow For Keeping Pirate Tales Alive!

Posted on June 1, 2011 at 10:30pm 0 Comments

"I was a bit of a tomboy when I was a lass...dreaming of the Jolly Roger, and pirates plundering the Caribbean! I used to sneak out of bed late at night, way past my bed time, to watch the late show on T.V., especially to see Errol Flynn, or Tyrone Power, in their swashbuckling Hollywood roles! Movies like "Captain Blood", "The Sea Hawk", and "The Black Swan", were my favorites! It wasn't easy to tip toe past my parents room, as my mother was…

Even before The VintageCrowsNest was only a concept, as a collector, I was on the lookout for a wide variety of nautical vintage items!  I've always searched for the unique and unexpected...and this canned emergency drinking water really fits the bill.

During the 1950's Naval…

"Hi Marianne! I always follow the rule of the least harmful to the stongest, meaning starting out with a more gentle detergent before I try a presoak, etc. Some of the 1950s and 1960s printed tablecloths may do better with a hand soak, as even the…"
