Bonanza, eCrater, ArtFire . . . Vintage, Collectibles, Dinnerware, Kitchenware, Glassware, Home Decor, Pottery

Hello everyone, and sorry to be gone from here so long. Didn't realize I had been MIA:) Been busy with listings, pictures---dealing with other marketplaces for things I sell. But...have also been busy with a few more items for this store that I am hoping to have filling up here soon. Went through some of the doilies here, table cloths, and little linen things like that to add with my repurposed-upcycled items I want to list with ArtFire. Not happening as soon as I thought, but I am about ready. I figured if I had my other venues in order, I could focus a bit more with supplying this store:)

When you have a chance, seen my other venues operating right now with vintage, collectibles, dinnerware, kitchenware, glassware, pottery at LilacsNDreams bonanza, and LilacsNDreams eCrater. Love the visits with all stores I have, and to hear from you too:)

With all of those stores at this time I do accept payments with Paypal, Google Checkout, Revolution Money Exchange, and POSTAL money orders. A Postal Money order will clear right away with no delays in shipping. 

Ok, off to get some things moved around between my stores, and check on things glued & drying:) Wishing ya'll a great week, and best of luck to all sellers, and shoppers too:)

Refurbished, Repurposed, Upcycled Treasure Accomplished

Enclosing 3 pictures of a few more items done. The first one is similar to the first one done, but different size of lace. These last 2 showing might not be fully done yet. Above I am thinking about some small small mini bows, or some sequens, or something. This last one....not sure what it is, but does not feel done yet. I might have some lace wide enough to add around the rim of this bowl to help fill in a gap that feels like is there. 

Anyway, off and running again. Working to get things done, and get stores ready for the holiday season. Have a super evening everyone!:)

Holiday Shopping Season ~ Christmas Shopping Season

Hello again to all who stop to visit with me, are browsing my stores, and out surfing. So happy you stopped by to visit, and view!

I usually am not the pushy type of person. I am easy going, carefree, and love doing what I do. But, I do want to remind everyone . . . HOLIDAYS . . . are fast approaching for ALL of us! Coming fast for the sellers trying to get all their stores, booths, websites, and products ready, but it is also fastly approaching for the shoppers too.

Just heard some reports about September Retail numbers were very strong last month. This could mean a strong holiday season for us all. If any of the shoppers are like me . . . I have been watching my pennies, not buying anything, being a good girl all year . . . But, I am getting antsy, and ready to shop!

So, everyone make note, it is predicted this will be a good season. But, also remember other retailers are aware of this, and will be gearing up with coupons, sales, and doing what they can for their businesses also.

Hope ya'll have enjoyed this, and again, Thanks so much for visiting with Passn It On today. Have a great Shopping Day Evening Everyone! Please, when you have a chance, visit with my other blog at LilacsNDreams.blogspot.com

Hope you enjoyed your visit with Me!:)

Selling on ArtFire, Repurposed Handmade Projects, Crafting

Hello again to Everyone who visits, and welcome to my blog!:) After dealing with things around the house this morning, I did settle on some lace to use for yet another glass candle stick, and plate. I have an identical glass candle stick, and plate like one previously made. I used the last of that particular lace that is pictured with it. But, did find another lace identical to it, and a bit smaller in size. Same color though. No 2 pcs can ever be identical, right? 

Then, I found a simple homco glass candle holder that is a small one for a pillar candle. It has not sold in my other store I have, so I have washed it again, cleaned, air dried it, and it is now glued with a small bowl. If you like the homer laughlin plate with that candle stick, you are sure to like this homer laughlin eggshell bowl that has been added with this candle stick:) Both pcs are small, dainty like, and will be great for little trinkets, adding some little soaps, or some cotton balls in your bathrooms, and many possibilities with it:)

I have been busy with my other store at artfire filling it with treasures, and am still having fun around there too. I would all of you to know, and remember that ArtFire is not only handmade, and crafts...that is the majority of the site, but it is also for the vintage/antique sellers out there too. Should see some of the beautiful glassware, serving pcs, dinnerware, and etc being shown there. Very nice, and they are well presented for your viewing too:) Have a look at http://www.artfire.com when you have a chance. You will enjoy the visit:) You can also visit my other store there which is found at LilacsNDreams http://www.artfire.com/users/LilacsNDreams

Time to go & check on things. Anxious to get my other project done:) Seeing how the glues have dried, and if I can add a bit more for it to set, and dry untouched:) Wish me luck. Ya'll take care, and thanks again for your visit!:) Look forward to sharing with you again:) Have a super Tuesday!

Finished Handmade Projects Showing

This item has been completed by me. I used a glass candle stick along with a homer laughlin saucer with no cup that came with it. There were a couple of nicks near the rim which I have covered with the lace that was glued to this. I then added a very small sized strand of pearls in the rim of the lace attached. At the bottom of the glass candle stick base I have added some little dainty pink ribbon bows to give it a little character. I will be selling this as seen, and leave the possibilities to the new owner of this adorable piece:)

This is another project completed by me also. This is a glass candle stick with a plate that has some really nice design work in it. This item has enough design work I do not feel the need to add any lace, pearls, ribbong, etc. But, upon offering this for sale I have thought about adding the candle with it, and maybe some little pretties. This is something to be determined yet before listing it for sale. Going through my inventory, and these separate pieces just kind of came together from what I was first going to do. I am happy I decided upon putting these together. So so much better in person than I have shown here. Hopefully upon listing for sale I can show the beauty of this:)

 

 

 

Hope ya'll are having a beautiful weekend! Sunny here, still waiting on grass to dry for mowing, but I am crossing my fingers, and going to have a little faith for that:) Thought I would come by here & share what I have completed. I did get a few more paints, and am hoping to complete another wall hanging I have been working on revising for sale too. Wish me luck, and will keep ya'll posted about where I am listing these gorgeous pieces. I am working on the new marketplace I have chosen for doing some sales there, getting the banner set up, my avatar, and now waiting till the 1st when I am scheduled to become a pro member. After that I can work with my store more due to the tools & features that will come with my pro membership. 

Crossing my fingers because I am getting excited for this. I need to get some envelopes to use for my shipments of doilies, tablecloths, and etc that will also be offered with this store. I have my other store I work with too. I sell vintage, collectibles, glassware, dinnerware, kitchenware with that store, and have been working on some finishing things with it too. Always a working progress:)

Hope ya'll are having a beautiful Sunday! Best of luck in all you do:) 

Hello Bloggers and Socializers:)

Dropping by to say Hello to everyone who visits, browses, and is passing by:) Hoping ya'll had a great weekend:) Ours was rain, foggy this morning, and now windy as heck...what a weekend, and now what a Monday! Was hoping for a little bit better, gotta get this yard mowed...takes close to 4 hrs to get it done. I started it last week, then we got rain, then I was gone for an appt one day, and was 1 thing after another...Now I have to mow that again too:) Checking the weather, and hope to work on it in a couple of days:) 

Hope this finds all doing well your way. Took grand daughter to 1st dance class Thursday, and while she was in there had about 30 min to waste. Daughter and I went down the road...Garage Sale! So, stopped, and I wish I would have had sooo much more time! This woman had vintage items, she took wooden benches & chairs, painted them, added some vintage pieces to them, and her items sure looked good!:) I did get a blanket, and an old wooden folding chair which she stained/varnished...looks nice, and so does the blanket:)

Here is the blanket I got. Not a tear, no seems coming loose, etc. She bought it a long time ago herself. I am thinking of having it drape over my vintage baby carriage I have that is also green. You know, the type with the metal frames that fold down, have the pull over on the head, etc. Great condition, with working wheels...and I will never tell how much I paid...you might not like me anymore:)

Hope this finds everyone doing well, and thanks for stopping by, and visiting my blog here. Take care, and Happy Monday to all!:)

Passn It On BlogSpot

Hello Everyone, and Welcome to Passn It On! Happy to have you here, and I am excited today myself too. I had put in for a name change for our sales permit...always nervous to see if you can use the name you submit. It worked! They allowed it, and we now have our sales permit for this name!:) I have also signed with GoDaddy for my .com domain too. Got that so no one else will get our name either. It's a small step, but yet a big step for me too!:) 

Still working with the website. I didn't like the background, and have recently changed it. Now I have to do some adjusting with some of the wording, and change some things I had written too. Never ending job, but I hope to soon have this resolved, and get on with some things I have in mind for this site:) 

Till the next time, take care all. Wishing ya'll a great weekend, and have fun too!:) ToodleOoohh...................:)

Remembering 911. . . . .

Please take a moment to remember today. Think of those who have been lost, and those that were left behind. Hope we can all come together to pay our respects for those to be remembered today. Thank You everyone, and have a blessed day:)
