Couldn't load pickup availability
Charming, nostalgic, and packed with folk-art appeal, this vintage sewing notions "treasure jar" is an assemblage artist's or quilter's delight. Featuring contents dating primarily from the 1960s through the 1980s (approximately 40 to 60+ years old), this curated collection is housed in a repurposed glass jar crowned with a charming lime green lid inset with hand-embroidered floral cross-stitch fabric.
Inside, the jar is filled with classic vintage sewing basket staples and craft ephemera. Highlights include turned wooden peg clothespins (often used for vintage clothespin doll crafts), vintage spools of thread, an embroidered ABC block patch, a small pink-and-blue needlepoint motif, sewing thimbles, metal blazer buttons, snap fasteners, and tiny novelty trinkets. It makes a wonderful decorative accent for a craft room shelf or a ready-made kit for slow stitching, junk journaling, and mixed-media projects.
