Beautiful Visions

I love when customers share their artistic projects from treasures they find at 3Vintagehearts!
Salvaged Antique windows are very popular pieces in my shoppe..
I like to use them for my garden tables I design and 
always pleasantly surprised at the wonderful ideas that customers themselves use them for.
Liz purchased one of my small antique window frames recently.
She was excited as it was just the right size she was hoping to find.
Antique - chippy - distressed type! Very Rustic Farmhouse!
I had taken my leaf blower and cleaned the sediment and loose paint and she had 
assured me I did not need to repaint or shabby chic it for her!
This week she contacted me with her beautiful art piece 
and I am just amazed by it...
It is quite awesome ! and I wanted to share her beautiful work.
Liz placed a burlap background in the frame and used old book pages to design her 
Flower Wreath and added a touch of color with dried flowers from the Hobby Lobby! 
very Beautiful Job! and best part it is ~ Uniquely hers~!
I love finding salvage architectural pieces and sharing my treasures for 
unlimited Beautiful Visions!



Thank you Liz for sharing!!!!!!!!

Tea Parties

From 8 to 80 ... do we ever stop dreaming of Tea Parties?
Little Girls turn into Big Girls and still want to have our Tea Parties!
WE collect them , display them, dress for them and 
find any excuse to invite our friends to them..
I love my teacups from the my childhood  and all my collections along the way!


This is one of my childhood Tea sets for sale at Etsy!
AND
One of my most popular items at 3 Vintage Hearts has been my
White Shabby Chic Shelf - Rack for displaying among many things 
some of your prized Teacups and Saucers.
I came across a  group of vintage salvaged church pew hymn holders from a small church that was being demolished...
My goodness what could I do with a dozen of these?!
I sold a few at Etsy for flowers boxes and organizers for office walls.
I wondered what did I want to do with mine! I soon found myself looking for my white paint can and this is how I altered these blessed boxes !
This is one of my Favorite Altered Cottage Decor Shelves.
AND  I only have one left! 





Original found Hymn Box
