LOL! I have been having the most fun this week... going through my old magazines and tearing out my favs pictures. I'd been wanting to clean some out, but then I could just never part with them....but then I thought why keep them all....I could just keep the photos that inspired me.....so I am in the process of putting them in a folder right now. I am working on doing this same thing that you did here....with your magazine photos. That's a wonderful idea, because the clear plastic sheets will preserve the pages. I am so glad that you showed how you compiled your magazine photos. By the way....they look delish! <BR/>Hope you and darling husband have a wonderful trip to Lake Tahoe...it looks so beautiful! <BR/>Big Hugs,<BR/>Queenie~Queenie's Vintage Findshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00721900066940447320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1017415956644080765.post-31455129988901815742009-02-06T17:42:00.000-08:002009-02-06T17:42:00.000-08:00What a great idea.

Often there are only a few pages in magazines that speak to our heart, the rest we can do without, and...like you said, we could find the article/picture we are looking for. You have inspired me.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727778262833890821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1017415956644080765.post-52942791052991825822009-02-05T07:34:00.000-08:002009-02-05T07:34:00.000-08:00I started doing that back in the 70's.

Great idea. Also I just saw your post about your new mantel top for your bedroom, how do you get so lucky to find those, I never see them down here, when you do run across them they are soooo expensive, anyways it looks so beautiful!<BR/>Hugs~KellyROSE VINE COTTAGEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14727952096283775127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1017415956644080765.post-60521026498158531902009-02-04T04:56:00.000-08:002009-02-04T04:56:00.000-08:00Yes, I do that too!

I've turned them into decorating scrapbooks which I spend hours working on sometimes. I actually did a post on it last year. Maybe you should stop by when you get a chance and take a look at mine. Might inspire you to get even a little more creative.
