Vintage Images, DIY Tutorials & Craft Projects
This adorable image comes from an 1870’s Children’s School book! I just thought these little Birds, formed into a Tree shape, were so much fun!!! Wouldn’t these make a darling Christmas Card?!! I’ve made a few options, including red and green.

Another “thumbs up” vote. I enjoy all your images (and thank you wholeheartedly for finding them and sharing them with us), but this one really jumped out at me.

I don’t know why, but I’m almost in tears over finding these images (happy tears!). I clicked on a pin, which led me to a post with several graphics on it. I had to scroll down to find the one I was looking for (which wasn’t this one, btw), and saw this one. My heart did a little flip! I wanted to make sure I could download it (legally and ethically), so I started clicking until I finally landed at the original spot! And then find out that it’s vintage AND free? Be still my heart… ๐ Thank you so much!
Melissa McIntyre says

I’m sure the book told of how it is a counting aid, from one to ten. Am planning on printing this as a coloring page for my grandbabies when they are old enough :~D Thanks! A stunning image.
