MORE FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC. FROM EVERYTHING CROTON

Putz artisan Howard Lamey has finished two small projects this month--click on the photo--and went with all mica flakes this time instead of standard glitter. The effect is quite nice indeed.  You can see it from start to finish here over at the forums: http://bit.ly/19fC9Eh

See more of Howard's work at www.littleglitterhouses.com

These two houses reminded us how much we love the old-fashioned vintage look of mica...and so here are some sources--including one for colored mica:

  1. You wouldn't think that orange would work but on that little house, it actually does. Kudos Howard.
