Handmade objects always have a story. They have a real character and charm over mass-produced items. My blog is featuring all the handmade items I make and I'm also going to post Free Patterns for crocheting, knitting and other crafts. I'm also going to post my favourite recipes for free! Are you interested in a certain pattern or recipe? Feel free to contact me.

I love to recycle books and records and create unique purses, clocks, IPhone docks, Ereader Tablet Covers, hollow safe books. You can find my crafting in My RETROGRANDMA Etsy Store

I also love to seek out collectible treasures and you can find them in my RetroClassics shop on Etsy

I've had a number of opportunities for my unique handmade items to be featured on many blogs. I LOVE the RETRO ERA and that's why they call me "RETROGRANDMA"! FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER: http://www.twitter.com/Retrograndma

Floating Book Shelf made from Books


Now these are cool! Just screw into the wall and you have an invisible floating book shelf made from a book. Several of these on a wall stacked with your favourite books would look awesome! I have children's books that would look great in a child's bedroom. How about a cookbook for your kitchen? You will find more in my Etsy shop.

Just made some new Ereader covers!




Just created some new Ereader covers for your Nook, Kobo, Kindle DX, or IPad. Handmade from many vintage books. You will find more in my Etsy shop! These cases are very unique and I love making them as much as I love making my handmade book handbags.
