Crafters X-mas and Inspiration

Going to my grandmas house is always a treat. I love to visit with her, hear her stories, and learn from her. Plus I almost always leave with at least a grocery sack full of goodies! Some of the goodies are hand made sometimes and other times its supplies. This time it was both! Check it out!

^Oodles of old lace!
coz i wanna make these

^ a bunch of tiny ribbon flowers and bows
 I want to incorporate into the above lace flowers

^ thread cones for my surger she gave me a few months back
Here is a pic of the vintage surger. It is a White Superlock 503:


^ a very old cookie tin - i want MORE!
coz i wanna make these, sans the snowflakes and in a color that suits my home.


^ dozens of crocheted flowers 
she makes these with her yarn/thread scraps, not usually with anything in mind to do with them.
I want to make a bouquet with them, like this:



^ tiny ribbon flowers and bows i will probably incorporate with the lace flowers

^ *swoon* vintage thread spools all wooden!

^ rick-rack... i have quite a collection of rick-rack now from a previous thrift store score, i need some rick-rack craft ideas!

^Crocheted butterflies. something else she does with her scraps. 
Maybe I will make a mobile with them?
Perhaps something like this:


And then there rest... there was some googley eyes, red pompoms, sequin pins and steel silk pins.

There are 2 bracelet-cuffs she crocheted me too I need to get pictured of them on the bracelet model.
Check it out!
