Vintage Inspired Easter Vignette

Hi Friends,

I've been having fun playing with some Easter scenes.

These Vintage inspired scenes are filled with wood ornaments,

baby fuzzy chicks, chenille paper dolls and salt and pepper shakers!

All on top of a re-purposed ribbon spool.


I started with an empty ribbon spool.


 I added ribbon to cover the paper spool.



Then covered the label with scrapbook paper.


In the back I glued a wood fence.


Then I glued down my paper doll and pink tree.



Basically the doll is made with bumpy chenille stems


Cut 1 piece with 3 bumps


 Top is for head support.
Arm piece twist at neck.


Cut a square of crepe paper, cut small center hole.

Pinch head to slip on square piece for top of dress.



 Add a  gathered crepe paper dress and a cut out a face from a greeting card.

Use pliers to curl up feet and hands.



Here's a little girl-




I added some wood toys and fuzzy chick,

and glued some roses to the fence.







Here is the view from the back.






I covered this spool with some grosgrain polka dot ribbon.




Covered the label with white card stock. I added the white pipe cleaner to the edge.

I started in the center, glued down the salt shaker then

added wood eggs , chick, bunny and flowers.


Here is the back side.


I made a wire pick to hold an Easter card.





This vignette was on a full roll of vintage gift wrapping ribbon 

I picked up while thrifting.

I didn't cover the label on this one-

The bunny is a salt shaker too!




Here's the back side.







Here I added the crepe paper trees from yesterdays post.



I had fun! I hope you enjoyed hanging out with me.

Thanks so much, it means a lot to me to have you here. I really appreciate the visit!

  4. I just loved these. I have been throwing away my ribbon reels as I couldn't think of a use for them--and I have a severe addiction to ribbon! Will rethink them NOW! Especially loved the chenille stem doll; I have made teddy bears (for my dollhouse people) with regular pipe cleaners--another thing I love!

      Thank you! I have saved a few because they are made of thick cardboard. Your teddy bear sounds darling!
