Traveling With Studio Meringue
Vintage Roost “Harvest Time Open House”
Vintage Roost is opening this Friday & Saturday for its “Harvest Time Open House.” The Roost will be open 9/21 & 22nd then 9/28 & 29th, 10:00 – 5:00pm. Location is 935 NW Scenic Drive, 1/2 mi off of Hwy 20 in North Albany.
Studio Meringue will have Luggage Tags, Postage-paid Postcards and Greeting Cards for sale along with Hop Wreaths.
The first three cards are from a series I’m doing that feature my photograph with a sepia inked handwritten poem or song lyrics over the top.
From the Hops growing in my backyard I made wreaths. I start by using Hop vines that only have leaves on them, I strip off the leaves and weave them into a round form.

Wedding Bells and Luggage Tags….
We attended a wedding this month of a Nurse that was one of a special group that took care of me while I battled Leukemia in 2007. She and her new husband are going to Hawaii on their honeymoon so I purchased a couple of travel books about the “Big Island” for them. I then incorporated Studio Meringue luggage tags into my gift wrapping!
Half the fun of giving a gift is wrapping it!!
Vintage Roost “Summertime Lawn Sale”
The Vintage Roost
is getting a jump start on Summer this year and having their
Summertime Lawn Sale in June for one long weekend!
June 28th, 29th & 30th, Thursday – Saturday, 10:00-5:00 daily
This Vintage Roost show is just as wonderful as all of the others, except for the special fact that this one is full of sales. In addition to marked down sale items, crafters bring unfinished projects, not so collectible collections that they don’t want to collect anymore and just plain funky stuff!
So, I hope you make it out to The Roost to visit, shop, meet up with friends and have fun!
Vintage Roost is located in the picturesque countryside of No. Albany, 935 NW Scenic Dr., 1/2 mile off Highway 20. Now accepting all major credit cards.
Something New From The Studio
These would be a great little Wedding gift! Priced at $6.00 for a pair.
The tags below are sold separately for $3.00 each.
May Opening At Vintage Roost Comes to a Close
May 26th & 27th is the last weekend that Vintage Roost will be open, until July. Open this Friday and Saturday from 10:00 – 5:00, don’t miss seeing this beautiful little shop. I promise, that if you take a moment and stop by you’ll find it a wonderful little respite in your busy day.
Located in North Albany at 935 NW Scenic Dr. it’s just 1/2 mi. off Hwy 20.
Here are the Father’s Day cards I’ve made and have available this weekend.
Debbie at Vintage Roost mentioned that “pink” things were selling well this month, so I kept that in mind when I made these cards.
I also made some postcards from my photos. These are stamped and mail ready. Quickly jot down a hello, and drop in the mail. You will positively brighten someone’s day!
View from Jerome, AZ I have a fascination with old postcards. Especially the ones that have been colored by hand. This postcard is a photo I took while on vacation in Arizona last month. We visited the town of Jerome, which sits on a hill side. This photo was taken from the window of an old hotel that is now an art shop. I’ve used a filter during the printing process that gives it a hand colored look.

I’ve Got A Thing For Galvanized!
I’ve been trying to come up with ways to use my photos in ways other than on cards. I love galvanized metal and have been driving Larry crazy with a collection of old metal buckets. I’ll find a use for them sometime! Anyways, my brother works with metal and so I asked him to cut out some 4″ tall and 2 3/8″ wide tags for me. After treating them with a solution of vinegar and salt to give them a galvanized patina, I made them into ornaments! Only $3.50 each, they can be used to adorn anything you choose!
Some of these will be available at Vintage Roost starting this Friday and Saturday.
Below are a few pieces in my galvanized collection…. (not for sale, giggle) Some pieces are inside worthy, but the buckets I have to keep out in the garage!
