   Three pairs of romantic couples, from the 1900's. 1920's & 1940's. Up & away in my beautiful hot air balloon.. 06/17/2009
I have always longed to fly with the birds above the clouds in a hot air balloon (and then bungee jump off the side.) Recently I've purchased a few postcards to use as backdrops for my new for Makers Faire '09, steampunk hot air balloon necklaces. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26635335  Printed in Germany, mailed from Stamford, England to New England in 1911. This one reminds me of the fantastical steampunk collage creations by http://www.WinonaCookie.Etsy.com  A California Honeymoon. Postcard by Edward H. Mitchell, San Francisco, CA, 1919.  French New Years postcard from the early 1900's, embellished with glitter & sequins. Feel free to use & peruse the images. | ArchivesAugust 2010 CategoriesAll |
