When I'm not busy blogging, or working, or taking care of my pets, or spending time with my husband, or cleaning my house, or sleeping, I like to craft (which means that I don't get to craft very often). My crafting methods of choice are sewing, crocheting, cross-stitching, and knitting (albeit poorly for that last one). When I saw that the etsy store Vintage Roundup offers a Surprise Box of Inspiration that's full of vintage items and craft materials, I decided to try it out. It would save me a trip to the craft store, plus I love vintage items, so I couldn't wait to see what I would get.
Everything came packaged in a cute cigar box. (Sounds kind of weird to use the words "cute" and "cigar box" in the same sentence, doesn't it?)
My first look. Oooohh, I'm getting excited!
The following photos show the items that the box contained.
Pretty flowers, music, and buttons!
Vintage postcards!
Lots of doilies and crocheted things with a "timeworn" look.
More randomness, including vintage thread spools and metal pieces.

This was such a fun box to unpack! Every time that I thought I was getting close to the bottom, I'd uncover another layer of pre-loved stuff to enjoy. I think that I'll end up placing all these items inside a shadowbox and then hanging it on the wall of my sewing room. Once I feed the dogs, write another blog post, grab a meal with my hubby, wash the kitchen floor, and catch a quick catnap, I'll get right on it!
