Here’s what I found for you this week:
Kelly was hoping for a claw foot tub or other assorted bathroom art. Here we have a whole bathroom, the tub doesn’t have claws, but it’s still pretty great looking I think!
Kate was searching for a Dutch Windmill image. Here’s a nice black and white one!
The Gimlins were wishing for a Beer Mug or Barrel, in order to make a sign for her husband. This Barrel has a nice blank spot on the front, perfect for customizing with some text!
Amanda requested a Beekeeping related image. I’ve had this old photo for over 2 years and had forgotten all about it, I can’t believe I actually found it again! Sorry Amanda, no lady Beekeepers, I hope you like these men though. This one is dated 1920 on the back.
And lastly Via Lila, was in need of a Cocoon. I couldn’t find a Butterfly Cocoon, but hopefully these Moth Cocoons will do! These came from an antique Natural History book.
Well, that’s all for this week. Do you have a request for an image? If so please leave it here in the comments section of my Request Day post, and then check back on Thursday to see if I found your requested image (Sorry but I can’t fill every request, I usually pick a few each week). Each week I go back and check under my Thursday posts to find what your looking for, it’s so much easier for me that way. I’m afraid I’m a very disorganized Fairy, so please, please please Do Not email requests to me, I most likely will loose it if you do. So sorry but I’m a complete mess when it comes to email! I’m afraid they’re just aren’t enough hours in the day to answer them all, and then I feel horribly guilty.
P.S. Don’t forget to use the search page here on my blog, you might find that the image you want is already here

Do you think you could find retro pictures of girls at soda fountains and with poodle skirts?
Thanks so much!

Hi Ashley,
Because of copyright laws, I try to stick to images created before 1923. Many of my readers use my images to make things that they sell, so I only provide the safest images possible. Sorry!
The Gimlins says
That barrel will work great! Thank you!

Hi Karen- Do you know the artist of the Beautiful Goddess you posted a long time back, Oct 4 2009? Or perhaps you remember the source? thanks, Nancy.

Thank you so much for all your beautiful graphics. I particularly enjoyed the Victorian Alphabets. It may be just me, but I cannot for the life of me find the ‘N’ of the set with single letters and my little granddaughter’s name is Nell. If I’m not just plain crazy, could you post it for me?
Plush Possum Studio says
i’ve sent you (as attachment, in email) a colorful page from an old butterfly book that I thought you could use. Hope it will be of some use to the one requesting cocoons!
Take care!

Karen, I’m thrilled. You have provided a graphic of my Nana’s and Papa’s bathtub. Up until now, I have seen only the claw foot.
I almost cried. Really.
Thank you!!!!!

I am a really BIG cat lover – kitties, kittens, cats, the household variety. Plain or used in holiday themes.
TY! Love your blog & the graphics you provide, really terrific! D 🙂

Hi Nancy,
I was thinking about you yesterday! That book came from my son’s college library, I was there yesterday and looked around for you, but I couldn’t find it. I’m afraid I don’t remember the name of it!
Karen- The Graphics Fairy says
Sheila,
That’s so cool!!! I’ve never seen a tub like that before. I’m glad it brought back some memories for you!
Diane says
Oh, especially thank you for the windmill! I collect them on plates and tiles! I will definitely create something fun with this! Maybe even color it in! Great image, Karen!
XO Diane

I’m looking for a firetruck graphic that can be used in a little boys room. His dad is a fireman and they are using Pottery Barn’s Jakes firetruck bedding. Thanks so much!
Kelly Kitchens Wickersham says
Hi Karen
I was wondering about images of buildings with multiple rows of windows with activity going on in each window a la Hitchcock’s REAR WINDOW. I’d love to have some like that to work with.
Thank you for all you do. I am in awe and grateful!
🙂

Janet says
Hi Karen,
I am brand new to your blog and I am having so much fun looking at all of the beautiful graphics you post! So many ideas floating around in my head now!!
Being a southern girl, we love our magnolias. I saw one graphic with them framing a scene, but if you happen across one with a single bloom I would love to see it.
Thank you!!
Kathy says
I actually have two requests.
The first is a black and white image of a plate that matches your silverware clip art. I have an idea for a Hey Diddle Diddle thing that I want to make for my kitchen.
I would also love a black and white dairy cow.
Thanks so much!!!
kmrf says
Your blog is amazing! I have already used several images for craft projects. I was wondering if you could keep a look out for seahorse images. Thanks a million.

Kelly says
I would love to see a woman holding a pie.
KatieO says
Do you think you might be able to find a Victorian-era crocodile or alligator? I would be forever grateful (not to mention incredibly impressed!)
Thanks a million!

Hello Karen,
I’m new to your blog and I just saw the beautiful bathroom image above. Do you know what the copyright info is on this image? Can I use it for products?
