The 1940s

I came across some fabulous 1940s patterns. I just love the graphics on these. I would have loved to grown up in the 40's. Look at the wonderful skirts and blouses and their super thin bodies!

I thought I'd show off some of my favorite ornaments on our Christmas tree. Most of them are ones I made or painted. This one I hand painted in 1983. The littel green mouse, I also hand-painted. This is a hand-made dough ornament. This is a hand-painted ornament. This is two of my favorite ornaments. Troll Santa and Mrs. Claus.

I love these girls looks, so confident, so sexy. This one is a Size 12 Bust 30.
