These images make the scraps particularly effective for wedding projects.

Silvery Swallow Charm
More Birds
Of course we love flying birds, especially silvery ones, at SilverCrow. This little swallow measures about 1-7/8 inch high and 1-7/8 wide. Swallows do not have the stamina to fly very far, so they are often associated with staying close to home. Because of this, many sailors have chosen them as symbols in their tattoos.

Plastic Nursery Rhyme Plaque - Jack & Jill
More Vintage Items
See Saw Margery Daw Plaque
This vintage 1969 nursery rhyme wall plaque measures about 8 inches wide by 5-3/4 inches high. Jill and Jack are running with their pail as a couple of bunnies and a bird look on. It is made of light blue hard plastic and includes the Jack and Jill Nursery Rhyme:
Jack and Jill went up the hill To fetch a pail of water; Jack fell down and broke his crown, And Jill came tumbling after.
This is old-store stock, unused and in great condition. The poem and the characters are raised from the plaque and are highlighted with golden accents. These were manufactured by Invicta Plastics and have lots of detailed information on the back regarding Invicta's company and locations. Some of these have the mounting tabs on the back that may or may not still be sticky. They were originally used to mount on the wall in a child's room - and would look great in a shadow box frame for a nostalgic touch.
There are so many sources of origin claimed for the Jack and Jill rhyme, that it is hard to know which is true. Many nursery rhymes began as satirical poems regarding the politics of the day. Still others were meant tell the stories of history to children, modified to help soften the harsher news.
Some say that Jack and Jill is the story of the beheading of Louis XIV and Marie Antoinette. Others insist that it was modeled after a fairy tale about 2 childhood friends in Norway. And still another associates it with the British monetary unit, gill, and the jackpot that ensued for the country.

Vintage Carnival Prize - Bird Whirler
More Circus & Carnival
More Vintage Stuff
Wow! This large (10-inch long) bird is made of cardboard and feathers. S/he was hand painted and has chopped up cellophane for hair! This great little pink, white and blue bird was probably originally red, white and blue. But, it's just as cool in its faced glory.
Each bird is attached to a wooden stick by a long string. Holding the stick, you swing the bird around your head and the bird will fly and make a squeaking noise. These are vintage, so please allow for some variation in color and expected wear.
Although it is not marked, we suspect that this fun toy was made in Japan. It is in great condition for its age, having been from some time around 1950. They were found in storage in the Columbus, Ohio warehouse of a carnival distributor.

Tree of Life Candle Holder with Birds
Mini Tree of Life Candle Holder
Wedding Tree of Life Candle Holder
Traditional artisans in Izucar originally crafted these very special ceramic candle holders as votive offerings for prayer - usually in church.
Hand-made and painted Tree of Life candelabras depicting birds and flowers are traditional gifts of good will in Central America.
Because these are each handmade, they will vary, making yours absolutely unique. It measures about 9 inches high, and at the widest point, about 9 inches wide.
The candelabra is crafted for standard tapers, but traditional beeswax candles will be lovely in it as well. (You might have to shave or re-shape the candles a bit, depending on the type you use). We think it is quite attractive with no candles at all!
The artisan painting is finely detailed and absolutely wonderful!

And, the octagonal niche is about 3/4 inch deep. This gorgeous is just loaded with detail - both in cutting and repoussée work. The nicho opens from behind with a traditional slider closure. The self-loop on the back allows you to hang your nicho as in the illustration. We think it stunning when turned to one side as well!
Around the perimeter of the nicho are elegantly hand-cut birds, as though protecting the contents of the niche. This design is based on a vintage nicho originally made in the 1800s.
The stunning craftsmanship is detailed and differs slightly among the pieces, as each is hand made. Allow for variation, but rest assured each is as special as the next.

Vintage Embossed Die Cut Chromolithograph Scraps - Animal Wannabes
More Scraps, Dresdens & Die Cuts
From the mid-20th century, super cute scraps feature animals in professions and activities normally reserved for their human friends. There are bears, birds, monkeys and more bowling, juggling, delivering the mail and playing the banjo. Artists, musicians and waiters and more, offer their more humorous side for inclusion in your artworks. We're not sure whether we wannabe the animals or if they wannabe human.
As with many of the scraps and die cuts made in the 20th century, these are children in adult situations. The advent of space exploration in the 1950s and 1960s, led to many products such as these. Rather than intricately die cut motifs, these are nicely expressed vignettes that are die cut into shapes - probably meant for découpage. We're particularly attracted to the colors in this production - there is a special tone that makes the scraps seem older than they even really are!
The scrap relief sheet is approximately 9 inches by 7 inches, ready for you to clip and use in your artwork. And each sheet is lightly embossed to accent. The shapes make these perfect for accenting boxes, pencil cups or other such items.

Package of 2 White Stork Dresdens
More Dresdens, Die Cuts & Scraps
How special these are! Our little Dresden storks are matte white, but made in the tradition of Dresdens of old. Use them as is - the embossing and cutting is absolutely superb! Or, hand color them with markers or paints - we think them loveliest when watercolored. Then, of course, you can add them to an ornament or package for a baby gift - or as favors for a baby shower. We even think that coloring them pink just might let us believe they could pass as flamingos.
The embossing on these reliefs is superb, as is the cutting. These are new but are made in the same fashion as they have been for many, many decades! Each stork measures about 1 inch wide by 2 inches high.

Plastic Nursery Rhyme Plaque - See Saw Margery Daw
This vintage 1969 nursery rhyme wall plaque measures about 8 inches wide by 5-3/4 inches high. There is a sweet picture of a girl and a boy on a teeter-totter made of a log and plank, accompanied by a bunny and some birds. It is made of light blue hard plastic and includes the Margery Daw Nursery Rhyme:
See saw Margery Daw, Jacky shall have a new master; He shall have but a penny a day, Because he can't work any faster.
In researching the meaning of this rhyme, we have found that it probably wasn't meant for children in the first place. It was most likely a worker's rhyme used by men sawing large logs of wood using two-handled saws - to help them keep time. It's origin appears to be in the 18th century and Margery was a poor country name, and Daw meant an untidy person. Working rhymes generally contained references to wages and eventually made their way into children's lives through their working fathers - just as the see-saw did!

Poe Illustrated: Art by Doré, Dulac, Rackham and Others
More Edgar Allan Poe
More Books
In his brief and troubled life, Edgar Allan Poe (1809-49) was as haunted by tragedy and loss as he was plagued by poverty, illness and alcoholism. Poe's personal misfortunes doubtless influenced the dark romanticism of his work. Obsessed with death, decay and the madness, he created compelling narratives of characters trapped in perverse situations. The profound influence of his stories and poetry extends not only to world literature but also to the visual arts.
This outstanding collection, selected and edited by Jeff A Menges, features scores of memorable moments from Poe's writings recaptured in gripping images of eerie beauty by the author's most acclaimed interpreters.
More than 100 illustrations, reproduced in brilliant color and crisp black-and-white, include hard-to-find images from private collections as well as those from sought-after rare editions. Poe Illustrated features scenes from such popular tales as The Fall of the Hose of User, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Gold-Bug, The Black Cat and The Cask of Amontillado as well as The Bells and other poems. Spanning a fifty-year period, they range from Édouard Manet's 1875 lithographs for a French edition of The Raven to the 1935 illustrations of Arthur Rackham for The Tell-Tale Heart and other stories. Additional contributors include Arthur E Becher, W Heath Robinson, Byam Shaw and Harry Clarke, among others. The editor provides an informative overview, as well as brief introductions to each of the artists and captions for their images.
The authors start by stressing the balance of complementary opposites—left brain/right brain, challenge/comfort, practicality/the sacred—as crucial to beginning the journey. Then through guided imagery, they lead readers through subconscious realms to connect with archetypal sources of inner wisdom. This process frees the creative and healing spirit, connecting explorers with the body's instinctive intelligence, which expresses itself through the creation of art.
This wonderful softbound book measures 8-1/2 by 11 inches and has 81 pages, almost all with illustrations.
