Vintage Valentines cards & gifts at FOUND
You can find plenty of vintage Valentine's gifts and goodies at FOUND in Ann Arbor this week. I especially love the sweet images on vintage valentine cards circa 1930's and early 1940's:
Laurie from Stories & Divinations brought in a wonderful selection handcrafted valentine. We have a half dozen new styles of valentine cards from her this year. Love the one signing L-O-V-E!
I love it when we have little gifties that are made right here in Ann Arbor - like these hand-stitched hearts made with vintage felted blanket wool. Great to attach to a package with a little present for your sweetheart on February 14th!
I always look for old skeleton keys. They are getting harder to find these days.... but I found some! Just in time for Valentine's Day. Tie a key to your heart with a red ribbon to a handwritten love note....
A mother and daughter bought spoon rings at FOUND and texted this photo - what a great Valentine's gift idea!
Spell out messages with scrabble letters - who wouldn't love to be greeted by this at breakfast?
The last few weeks, we've been restocking the shop and have lots of great jewelry and gifts for your sweetie. Our fresh batch of cashmere scarves made from recycled sweaters will keep your valentine cozy and warm. Another thing I especially like are the stamp sets with hearts - great for making your own cards or decorating gift wrap any time of year. Our new order of red sealing wax and heart shaped stamps arrived in time for Valentines Day, too.
When I was in Illinois last month, the owner of the Fairbury Antique Mall gave me the valentine postcard above. She'd set it aside, knowing that I would appreciate it. I do! That sweet gesture reminded me that valentine's day is a great time to pass around the love with little unexpected surprises.
Happy Valentine's Day to all of you from FOUND!
