    Vintage Boat Plans
    2008-04-01 22:03:28
    A recent comment points us to a site with some more free vintage boat plans. Might be worth a look and see if they have anything you are interested in.Welcome to vintageboatplans.com... Here, you'll find many of the old boat designs of days gone by. Cabin cruisers, rowboats, skiffs, dorys, kayaks, paddle boats, john boats, hydroplanes, sailboats and more. These old plans usually include materials lists, dimensions and instructional text. Each set of plans is in ONE file so you don't have to download multiple image files of different sizes and deal with sizing and printing them correctly. Some plans were compiled by others and they didn't improve them at all. All the plans I compiled myself were completely digitally restored and enlarged, improving the quality at least 100%. Old brown pages were restored to a crisp white to save expensive ink when printing. This process was extremely time consuming.

    The issue of vintage can be complex
    2008-03-05 16:08:00
    Weather in a given year is more critical in France, for example, than in California because wine production laws in many parts of France prohibit irrigation of vines. The climates in California wine regions are fairly consistent year to year, making differences between vintages less meaningful. So, unless you are specifically looking for wines to add to your collection for the purpose of aging them over a period of years, don't be too concerned about vintage. It's better to enjoy them according to your own needs and desires than to guess at when they might be at their peak.

    Fender American Vintage Series '57 Stratocaster
    2008-01-25 17:32:49
    One of the most popular instruments in history, this Stratocaster is certainly the most imitated electric guitar ever. 1957 was a benchmark year for the instrument, evolving from its early incarnations into an archetype - and the high point of the era of the maple neck Strat guitar. Original detailing includes unique '57/'62 pickups, three-way switching (five-way switch kit included), beveled pickup magnets, ashtray bridge cover, and single-ply pickguard. Available in White Blonde (801, ash), Two-color Sunburst (803), Black (806), Ocean Turquoise (808), Surf Green (857) and Ice Blue Metallic (883).See more American Vintage Series guitars:Fender '62 Custom TelecasterFender '52 TelecasterFender '62 StratocasterFender '62 JazzmasterFender '62 Jaguar

    Fender American Vintage Series '62 Jazzmaster
    2008-01-25 17:32:49
    First introduced at the 1958 National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) show, the uniquely contoured body of the Jazzmaster incorporates a snappy 25-1/2" scale lenght with warm-sound-ing pickups. Original lead and rhythm circuit switching incorporates independent volume and solo controls, and the floating tremolo with tremolo lock adds to the distinctive look and sound of the Jazzmaster. Available in Three-color sunburst (800), Olympic White (805), Black (806), Ocean Turquoise (808), Surf Green (857) and Ice Blue Metallic (883)."Back in 1983, i went shopping for my first guitar. I wanted to get a Fender with a worn-out neck, and a worn-in old Strat was outta my price range at the time. The Jazzmaster was $300 and that was all the money I had for a guitar after painting the neighbors house that summer. Then I learned to play on the Jazzmaster, and switching the pickups and using the Jazzmaster's whammy became a part of my guitar style. I can't go back now!"-J MascisSee more America

    American Vintage Series '62 Custom Telecaster
    2008-01-25 17:32:49
    Originally introduced for cosmetic reasons, as maple was prone to showing wear, rosewood became s popular feature that also added warmth to the classic Tele tone. The double-bound alder body and multi-ply pickguard dress up the '62, distinguishing it from its Butterscotch predecessor.In the spirit of the original, '62 Custom Telecaster guitar comes equipped with a "C" -shape maple neck, a 7.25" radius rosewood fingerboard, two '62 Custom Tele Single-coil pickups, a vintage Tele bridge with threaded steel saddles, and features the original Tele circuit with its three-position switch.

    Fender American Vintage Series '52 Telecaster
    2008-01-25 17:32:49
    As one of the longest-running production models in history, the strength of the Tele guitar lies in its inherent simplicity. It's been modified only slightly since its inception. The '52 integrates a premium ash body with a one-piece "U" -shape maple neck and a 7.25" radius fingerboard. It features two American Vintage Tele single-coil pickups, the original Tele circuit with its three-position switch, brass bridge saddles, an ashtray cover (vintage six-saddle bridge included as an accessory), a single-ply black pickguard, master volume and master tone, and chrome hardware.

    Fender American Vintage Series '62 Jaguar

    Offspring of the Jazzmaster, the Jaguar paired brighter pickups with a mellow, short 24"scale lenght. A trio of sliding pickup selector switches, rotary volume wheels on the upper bout, and chrome hardware and tremolo lock, are distinctive Jaguar traits. The wacky and removable Fender Mute is a built-in string-damping device created with surf bands in mind. Available in three-color Sunburst (800), Olympic White (805), Black (806), Ocean Turquoise (808), Surf Green (857) and Ice Blue Metallic (883).See more American Vintage Series guitars: Fender '62 Custom TelecasterFender '52 TelecasterFender '57 StratocasterFender '62 StratocasterFender '62 Jazzmaster

    Lately it seems like women everywhere are taking hold of the latest fashion trend to cinch the waist with a belt. Whether you’re looking to cinch your waist or add a splash of color, belts are the way to go. Gone are the days of hiding this staple. Wear them over your jumpers, jackets and high-waisted pants or skirts or anything. They even look good wrapped around a coat! Apparently, the high location of the belt has a thinning effect and gives some girls that coveted hourglass figure. It's essential to keep everything simple in order to achieve the desired look.

    Vintage Oversized Frame Fashion Sunglasses
    2007-07-24 03:36:14
    I'm obsessed with sunglasses but not exactly designer but in general. I love big sunglasses they are so glamourous and just easy to wear and I definately don't think they are going out of fashion any time soon. If they look good on you wear them! If you are going to spend alot of money on sunglasses don't forget to pick some that will last you forever.Fashion trends are prone to fads and come and go, especially women's fashions. There are trends that are here today, gone tomorrow. Then there are those that turn into classics and never go out of style. I'm talking about oversized vintage sunglasses, of course. Oversized vintage sunglasses have come back and are the most popular styles today. Jackie O sunglasses are the perfect accessory to complete a Jackie O costume or outfit. Jackie O sunglasses are lots of fun at costume parties and themed events. Jackie O is thought as of America's closest thing to royalty she was an A-list socialite and is best remembered as the wife of assas

    Vintage Wi-Fi Radio
    2007-06-19 14:13:45
    If you like cutting edge gadgets then you need to get your hands on a Wi-Fi radio, but what if you have a love for antiques? Alinke used a vintage radio housing and modified a Wi-Fi Radio to fit inside. At first glance it looks like an antique, well until you spot the LCD display anyway. “I found a local vintage radio dealer in town. He’s a real purist and is only interested in preserving radios with the original electronics so he really didn’t have any interest in helping me out. It took awhile, but he sold me this box for $30. After a few Google searches, I came across this product which seemed a good fit. Its not cheap though and goes for $300. I shopped around a little and was able to get one for $260. The other one out there is this one and is slightly cheaper but I needed to be able to attach a knob to the volume control for the retro look as opposed to an iPod like volume control.”

    New designs made with vintage cloth
    2007-05-16 17:29:39
    Clothing that has been redesigned is the in thing, it can be rather expensive though, the sourcing of the fabrics can become a harder and harder, but as they begin to run out, naturally the price will reflect that the fabrics are now rare or in some cases non existent. Each garment is unique, made from garments that were originally made in London, UK, and the home of this type of clothing. But before you worry about the cost etc, one great thing about these garments is the fact that most of them are totally reversible, which in effect means that you can be getting a two for one how is that for a bargain!

    Recycled and Vintage fabric bags
    2007-05-16 16:58:52
    What a great idea, something useful and recycled too. Salvation Sacks have been working on these new products, practical and very desirable, these bags are made from fully recycled fabrics. They retail at around $145, but there is a lot of work involved in the whole process, first they have to search for the right fabrics, it has to be vintage. The fabric is then cut and combined to match the idea of the designers, they are then sewn together and as a final touch jewelry like earrings, necklaces, buttons and pins are added by either pinning or fixing to the bag, and finally and strap and tag are added to complete the package. So the price you are paying is for a totally recycled, hand made bag that is one of a kind, no two are the same.

    The Vintage Kid
    2007-04-04 13:29:00
    Is there such a thing? Do young moms nowadays ever purposefully dress their little ones in vintage togs? Once in awhile, maybe? I'll admit I haven't delved much into this tangent of vintage wear as far as selling is concerned but it is interesting & I'm a sucker for anything little, cute & nostalgic.I do run into great kids stuff now & then, much of it in never worn condition, carefully tucked away in cedar chests & storage drawers. I found this little gem however stepped on & kicked almost under a bed on a dusty floor at a local estate sale, and you would almost mistake it for a dust rag, in all the jumbled mess of potential textile treasures. I've lovingly restored it ( and I use this term loosely) by giving it a really good soak & some new elastic and am saving it for a special little girl to wear when she's big enough. It's old, handmade & most likely has some ethnic origin. And I also wish I had one of my own about 5 times it's size.I have in my Textiles category a small assortment of baby whites. These are a source of endless facination for me with their doll sized dimensions, delicate embroidery, and wafer thin sheerness. They are for the most part fairly common still, are very easy to launder and often come with tiny matching bibs & bonnets.First of all, on my "to get, and looks really worth it" list is Anna MacPhail's The Well-Dressed Child: Children's Clothing, 1820-1940. Which is evidently full of photos (my favorite type of resource book) and seems to be filled with interesting info on this not so well known aspect of vintage attire. But I've also done a quick search on the web and have found there is some super vintage for older kids, mostly for girls but there's boys stuff too...Another Time Vintage Apparel has a nice variety of kids wear currently for sale - I especially like the rose pink chenielle robe & sheer 50s blouse for the girls as a well as the little boys "Batter Up" cap.Kids vintage sewing patterns also abound on th

    How To Wear A Vintage Hat
    2007-03-04 15:07:00
    Alright, I don't have the definative answer to this or anything near it really. It seems after a bit of research & real life experience there are as many good reasons NOT to wear a hat as there is to wear one. But since I'd like to showcase a few of the vintage ones I stock, I think I'll accentuate the positive aspects of donning a chapeau.Hats are certainly not as popular as in recent decades, that's a certainty. It's been said umpteenth times but there was a time neither male nor female of the species went out of the house without one. Summer. Winter. Spring or Fall. And ladies hats in particular were literally little artistic endeavors - from the feathered architechtual wonders of the Titanic era to the intricately beaded skull caps of the Jazz Age right on down to the floppy brimmed 70s - they are all marvelous & amazing, sometimes absurd & surreal and certainly some are more wearable today than others.So how do you incorporate a "wearable vintage hat" into your wardrobe. I'm mostly referring to the hats that have survived from the 40s - 70s and can be found in bountious amounts on the web, in vintage clothing stores, yard sales, thrift shops & of course grandmas attic.Let's start with a celebrity, as always easy targets I say. In particular, one attending the recent Academy awards, which can always be relied upon to provide a treasure trove of fashion commentary material.I noticed actress Maggie Gyllenhaal right off watching the red carpet procession of luminaries -I think she's nicely illustrating the use of feathered head gear - which is elegantly encircling her head & perfectly topping off & tying together a sleek & glamourous look without looking dated. I think it might be cross between a headband and what I believe was referred to as a "whimsey" which usually included a matching net veil. These are usually pretty good sellers and have stood the test of time well. Beaded & sequined veiled hat pieces are another sure winner also -

    The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Vintage Hankie
    2007-02-06 15:34:00
    I have a slowly, ever growing stash of vintage handkerchiefs. Like aprons, they're another vintage textile that's irresistably cute & charming and hard to pass up. And they usually come in big bunches through an estate and every lady seemed to have them, often in copious amounts, evidently.What's great about that is many, many were stored away & never used (cause truly who wants a really used one now anyway) and they are made of some very fine fabrics - delicate cotton voiles from Switzerland, linen from Ireland and silks with intricate embroideries & patterns, etc. Some are fairly collectible for obvious reasons - they were designed by well known textile designers of the day who put a fair amount of artistry into the small square of fabric. Some are unique souvenir pieces from distant, visited places, some were brought back by sweethearts during the war, some commemorate holidays.Another great aspect of vintage hankies is they're rather inexpensive and still fairly common - so if you're thinking of jumping into the great and wondrous sea of collecting - starting a vintage hankie collection is great way to stick your big toe in.So I will be adding a selection of a few of some of my favorites - the 40s/50s era brightly colored cotton florals. They have the same appeal to me as do the printed cotton tablecloths of that era - conjuring up cheery warm feelings of home.And here's a link to an article with some fine suggestions for uses for them, from window valences to basket liners. Surely we don't want to use them for their original intended purpose (that's unsanitary by today's standards) and these days waving one around in the air & nonchalantly letting it flutter to the ground in view of a desirable male member of the species won't likely illicit the intended response. But you could try it, you never know.

    Vintage Chic Interior - A How To Guide
    2006-11-25 09:59:00
    With the recent trend for all things retro, I thought I'd share my thoughts on this quick and easy guide to creating a picture-perfect vintage chic home interior:1. Planning Think granny's home in the 60s and 70s with floral motifs and lace tablecloths. There are no hard and fast rules on what makes for a vintage look. Generally, the furnishing includes antiques, second-hand furniture or new pieces deliberately 'distressed' to look used. This means reinventing vintage items and giving them new life.2. Key Pieces Whimsical designs ranging from crystal chandeliers, floral fabrics, old-fashioned lampshades, wrought-iron furniture, comfortable armchairs, candles, recycled accessories and offbeat ideas like using an old teapot to hold fresh flowers. There's no running away from wallpaper, furs and curtains if you're going for the European vintage look.3. Color: Light vs Dark Personally, I like to opt for light colors like white and cream as they evoke a more breezy and casual touch. I

    Where have all the vintage belts gone?
    2006-08-09 15:47:00
    I've asked myself, many times over. It's a real nifty thing to have a matching belt to your dress whether it's contemporary or vintage - but a minor annoyance to finding, buying or selling a vintage dress can quite frequently mean the matching belt is missing, often a rather nondescript belt that can easily be replaced with something generic & modern. But sometimes you can only assume that it was rather unique with details only a vintage belt would have.Most often when I present something that possesses belt loops & no belt for sale, I only mention it as a characteristic of the item & assume the future owner will come up with a suitable replacement, maybe something creative. Vintage wearers are known for their creativity anyway. Vintage scarfs, which come in so many different patterns & lovely silks & chiffons are often used to cinch the waist as a replacement and do just fine. They're economical too & can be had at copious amounts for spare change most of the time (as long as it's not a Hermes or something). And lots of garments can have their loops removed & look just fine sans belt.I've just added this Suzy Perette to my inventory -and of course it has loops, but no belt. The dress is a completely wearable stunner regardless but a good example of a good dress gone beltless.Here are 2 of my items that I've gone ahead and added an interesting belt to - this dynamite circle skirt -to which I added a contemporary corset style belt, which I think looks great.And I threw in this faux gold lame type belt (kind of 80s I believe) to cinch the waist of this full skirted vintage cotton dress that for some reason looked lackluster without it's belt even though the print is smashing - there was something about the combination of the two....
