Vintage Dairy Coupon and an Etsy Shop Shout Out

I love to shop on Etsy for vintage items for this blog. I was really happy to discover reginasstudio. She sells a ton of vintage treasures and bought this to share with you guys.


She has no idea that I am giving her a shout out but I was so impressed with my items and how fast they arrived that I hope you guys will check out the shop.

Vitalogy and Estate Sale Pics

On Friday, I went to an Estate sale over in the "old money" part of Phoenix. I love going to these because these houses are usually pretty big. This one was over 4000 square feet with a separate living quarters on the side of the property. They also usually hold a lot of stuff. Oh and I'm nosy. How else am I going to tour and see the inside some of Phoenix's largest real estate?
Although the house was dated (from the 60's) the view from their front porch while I waited in line to get in was quite pretty to look at. 


Here are some of the interesting items I saw at the sale:










I only purchased 3 items: an antique Vitalogy book (super excited about this), a 70's toy Mr. Peanut, Peanut Butter maker, and some vintage paper treat holders. 

Here is a page from the 1926 Vitalogy book. The pages were already coming apart so I don't feel too bad about tearing it open more to be able to get better scans to share with you! It is a page of "professional remedies" used for certain illnesses from the 20's.

Happy St. Patty's Day! Free Victorian Image

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! I'm afraid I don't have any images currently that are related to the holiday but I do have a spring image. Here is a Victorian image of a girl with flowers.


She's adorable and I love the little lady bug crawling on the flower. Tomorrow's post will feature what I found at the weekend's estate sale and a new vintage image! -Sarah

Antique Floral Wallpaper

Here is an old piece of antique wallpaper with adorable tiny flowers. I really like the way the paper is frayed on the edges and slightly stained.
Well I am off to a few estate sales today and a couple community garage sales tomorrow! If I find any great antique items, I will be sure to post a few pics of them here. I will see you guys back on Monday with an another posted image!  -Sarah

Seaside Vintage Postcard

Well hello! Long time no see! After a long hiatus I hope to revive this blog and put up some more free images for you to use in your art and crafting adventures! Here is one of my favorites vintage postcards and I'm currently using it as my banner above. Summer is coming up pretty shortly here in Arizona as it is already 80 degrees and getting warmer by the day.
I've also just started a Facebook page for The Vintage Moth which you can find here so please help me get to 25 likes to achieve my vanity Facebook URL. Thanks for hanging in with me though the years! -Sarah
