Hello everyone! I hope you're all travelling well. I'm getting back on track after health issues. I've decided I won't be blogging for the rest of this year and will return to blogging next year. In the meantime, I'm going to continue with my destash auctions on eBay at <a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/favouritevintagefinds/m.html" target="_blank">favouritevintagefinds</a> from later this month. I'll be auctioning vintage jewellery, vintage and vintage inspired clothing, and vintage handbags.<br />

The dress in all the photos in this post is a vintage 70's Gunne Sax dress that I use to
own. Janine won the dress in one of my eBay auctions and has become one of my fave photographers.<br />

Hello everyone! Here's a delightful antique post card from the early 1900's from my collection for you. Click to enlarge and right click and save.<br />
<br />
One of the earliest dreams I can remember having as a child was going
for a ride on a big butterfly. So when I found this post card at one of my fave vintage post card shops, <a href="http://www.cardcow.com/" target="_blank">CardCow.com</a>, I had to have it. This card reminds me to stay in touch with my inner child. <br />
<br />
Best wishes until next time, my dears. :)<br />
<br />
P.S. I'll continue with my destash auctions on eBay in September.<br />

I'll have this fabulous vintage 1984 Patricia Smith Moon Bag and fab matching belt (below) up for auction on eBay at <a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/favouritevintagefinds/m.html" target="_blank">favouritevintagefinds</a> for 10 days starting this Sunday night, May 5. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Patricia Smith Moon Bags were designed by artist Patricia Smith. They
were made from the late 1970's until the mid 1990's and weren't mass
produced. Today Patricia Smith Moon Bags and accessories are sought
after collector's items. There are a variety of styles of Moon Bags and
most have distinctive lacquered panels, handles or accents that were
hand painted by Patricia Smith. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This grey leather bag features needlepoint embroidery on the front and back and a removeable
hand painted lacquered panel. It can be used as a shoulder bag or a
clutch (the shoulder strap can be tucked inside the bag). The matching belt (below) also features needlepoint embroidery and a hand painted lacquered buckle. Needlepoint
Moon Bags and belts were sold as kits. The needlework was do-it-yourself, and
when the needlework was completed, the kits were sent to Moon Bags
Inc for assembly. </div>

Here is my navy leather needlepoint Moon Bag from 1984. This bag features needlework on the front and back and a removeable hand painted lacquered panel.

The needlework was do-it-yourself, and when the needlework was completed, the kits were sent to Moon Bags Inc for assembly.<br />
<br />
I won this fabulous bag on eBay along with the fab matching hand painted lacquered belt buckle and needlepoint belt canvas below.<br />

Continuing on with my destashing project (slowly but surely). Here's a sneak peek of the fab original vintage 50's and 60's dresses I'll have up for auction on eBay at <a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/favouritevintagefinds/m.html" target="_blank">favouritevintagefinds</a> for 10 days starting this Sunday night, March 10. </div>

Over the next several months (and probably beyond), I'll be listing vintage clothing, vintage handbags and vintage jewellery from my personal collection on eBay. I won't be featuring every individual item that I'll be listing on eBay here in blog posts anymore. Instead I'll feature my favourite picks and mention the other items I'll be listing. </div>

Back in 2011 I had a destash of some of my vintage Gunne Sax dresses, and sold them on eBay. Here's a dress I was going to sell...so glad I decided to keep it. :)<br />

Hello everyone! Lovely to be back for 2013. I've been sorting through my stashes of vintage clothing again - working out what I want to keep, give to charity and sell on eBay. I've found many clothes that I'd kinda forgotten about as they've been squirreled away for many years - for example these two dresses (which I'm keeping). <br />
<br />
This 70's dress is 100% cotton and is by Alice Stuart. It was kindly given to me by an old neighbour of mine 18 years ago when I was 19. It fitted me perfectly then. It nearly fits me now...<br />

I bought this 70's matte polyester crepe dress (label removed) about five years ago from a thrift shop. It was on the discount rack for only a couple or a few dollars. It didn't fit me at the time, so I squirreled it away. It fits me now, yay! :)<br />

The Vintage Fashion Journal, illustrated by Niki Pilkington, is gorgeously illustrated, well designed, and top quality. It has a hardcover, fabric cover, ribbon closure, 128 pages, and a high cuteness factor. Love it! It would certainly make a delightful gift. <br />
<br />
The illustrations of 40's - 80's fashions and homewares are on the front and back cover and interspersed throughout the pages. Also interspersed throughout the pages are quotes from famous style icons. There are a mix of white and pastel coloured pages that are light lined, blank, or have light geometric prints. <br />
<br />
2 lucky Favourite Vintage Finds readers will each win a copy of The Vintage Fashion Journal. The publisher of this journal, <a href="http://www.laurenceking.com/" target="_blank"> Laurence King Publishing</a>, is sponsoring this giveaway. To enter this giveaway, read on...<br />

Favourite Vintage Finds turned 3 last week, and I forgot! I'll be having a belated blogoversary giveaway later on...there will be 3 prizes...stay tuned...<br />
<br />
This blog is a hoot for me to do! A big thank you to you all for your support! <br />
<br />
That's my vintage 70's owl pendant above. I found it on eBay. It's goldtone with burgundy enamel on the front, and has moving eyes. The maker is unknown but there is a hallmark on the back - NK 379.<br />
<br />
I'll be back here on Thursday to feature the destash items I'm listing on eBay this Saturday. <br />
<br />
Best wishes, until Thursday. :)<br />

Hello Everyone! I hope you're all well and happy. I'm having a destash of my vintage clothing, jewellery, handbags and other accessories. Photo is of the first lot of destash items I'll have up for sale on eBay. Click on the photo to enlarge it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'll be listing items on eBay at <a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/favouritevintagefinds/m.html" target="_blank"> favouritevintagefinds</a> for the next few months, and probably beyond, starting next week. Discount worldwide shipping will be offered on each item. Before I list items on eBay, I'll be featuring them here on the blog. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Enjoy the rest of the week! See you next week! :)</div>

The heart brooch was gifted to me by Helen from <a href="http://www.blossomandcat.com.au/" target="_blank">Blossom and Cat</a>.

Here are a few of my favourite Autumn flavoured items. My clever Mum made
the bag above using vintage upholstery fabric and vintage upholstery trim,
both from the 70's.

This umbrella is also from the 70's. It was a lucky ebay win.

Another lucky ebay win for me, this barrel shaped needlepoint and leather bag is from the
50's or 60's. There is a different design on the front and the back.<br />

Here are two of her favourite vintage finds.<br />
<br />
Won at an auction, this charming painting was painted by "Myrla" in 1985.<br />
<br />

<br />

<br />

It's believed to be from the 30's or 40's, and is very rusty from its travels on cruise liners. Inside the trunk there are hand written labels attached to fabric pockets. Georgina's favourite labels says "White Deck Shoes".<br />
