Iron On Instructions

Last month when I was at this yard sale, I picked up a couple of 20+ year old instruction sheets from Roach as to how to use their brand of iron on transfers. It was completely thrilling to me to see them! This is pretty much how I make them work now with my vintage [...]

Vintage Sheets = Goodness

For those of you who know me (and probably some of you who don’t), you know that I’m a pretty quirky girl about certain things. I am obsessed with T shirt tags, I carry enough stuff in my purse to give the average person a chronic back-ache, and I own four of the same cropped [...]

DIY Recap

The DIY Street Fair was one my favorite weekends of the whole year, hands down. Crissy and Scott were so fun to hang out with in the tent (I missed you though, Dan!) and the fair was a total success and a total blast! I love fairs like this because I get to see so [...]

DIY Street Fair This Weekend!

I am VERY excited to have a tent at the DIY Street Fair in Ferndale, Michigan this weekend! If you live in the area,  you’ve gotta come check out this fair. The band line-up is AMAZING and chock full of the best local bands around, and there will be a beer garden, and kid’s area, [...]

The Resurrection of Style

I’m so thrilled with this article! Real Detroit, I heart you! You can read the whole thing on their website here. Disclaimer: You can’t dye all screen prints! Drop a bit of water on your T shirt first. If it beads up on the screenprint, it should be alright. If the screen absorbs the water, [...]

A Very Nice Thank You

Yesterday I received a very nice package in the mail – a thank you note from a lovely lady who is beginning to sell vintage clothing on Ebay. Donna bought a couple mannequins I was selling on Craigslist last week after I bought my new mannequin, Jenna. Donna had come across an unbelievably huge lot [...]

Whew!

Well, Dally in the Alley was AMAZING (as usual), and if you take a look around the website, you’ll notice a lot of items you might have seen last week are now sold – especially T shirts! It was a blast of a day catching up with old friends and customers, meeting a few online [...]

Dally In The Alley

It’s one of my favorite Saturdays of the year this weekend – Dally In The Alley Saturday! If you live in Metro Detroit, and have never experienced Dally in the Alley, you are really missing out. And even better this year – they got rid of the techno stage! No offense to people who like [...]

Boblo Island

Cedar Point was a fun time, but as always it made me miss Boblo Island a bit, especially the boat ride!

On the road this weekend!

I am SO excited to be selling at my first out-of-state show this weekend! For anyone in the Cleveland area, Reware Vintage will be selling at the Salty Not Sweet craft show on Saturday, September 5th at the Quirk Cultural Center in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio from 11am-7pm. I’ll be bringing crazy amounts of Record Notebooks, [...]
