Talented Time Travelers in Focus #31


Now let's take a peek at some of the talent linked to last week's party.


Thanks to a little design inspiration from her nine-year-old son, Deb @ DeJa Renew was able to update this old 70s side table with a bit of Bohemian flair.

Could she have a budding artist in her midst?


This is the year for Caroline @ Piorra Maison to shine.

She has committed to unleashing her creative energies in 2011, and these incredible knobs will be part of a forthcoming project involving...


this piece of "junk"—as declared by her son, not me.

I have a feeling he will be eating his words when Caroline is through with this beauty.


With a love of old vintage images and all things Victorian, Machelle @ Machelle Reeves Blankenship has embarked on creating a portrait reminiscent of the era she is so fond of.

I can't wait to go back and see the piece in its completion.


If you love vintage ephemera, as much as I do, you'll enjoy this cute Valentine's card—even though the holiday has passed.

A visit to For The Love of Old Junk And Other Treasures will unearth a trove of old photos and vintage cards for your viewing pleasure.


I love one-of-a-kind pieces!

To me, they are what make your home uniquely yours.

Karen @ The Vintage Bag Lady created this whimsically charming wall art from castoffs she had "hanging around" her place for decades.

That's why I don't throw anything away;  I'm sure that one day I'll be able to create something really wonderful from it!  ; )


As always, great job, Time Travelers!

Now what ya been up to this week?
