I'm one of those people for whom numbers have always held an attraction...
...
numbers and letters...
I love
calligraphy....I have always liked to doodle and write out the
alphabet and all the
digits....
... I like to look at them and their
swirly shapes....
...
strangely, however... Math has never been my subject...
This white platter with dark blue and gold decoration came from the
Anthropologie sale table...
...it has a great number! :)
These silver napkin rings came from
Pottery Barn...not on the sale table...
...but irresistible...
Love my
watch faces...love those
digits and
Roman numerals...
...have lots of these old brass stencils in several sizes...both
numbers and
letters...
Digits...
have come into their own...
This is the latest issue of
Jeanne D'Arc Living magazine...
It arrived yesterday and I just love this issue. They have proclaimed
2010 as the year of the digit. I think for many of us....
2009 was a big year for numbers too.
A few images from their gorgeous pages...
Aren't those photographs wonderful? Such beautiful arrangements...
The above collage I have shown before...it is from
Artifacts in upstate NY...
These wonderful large old wooden number stamps came from
Gather in Ivoryton, CT.
Paula bought the numbers
5 and
2 for me as a gift...
When we visited Deanna at her shop
Gather at Christmastime....
...I bought the rest of the set!
There are other wooden stamp sets in different sizes that I have been lucky enough to find and add to my collection over the years...
...it is so fun to use these vintage stamps...
I'm not into Numerology but I sure do like numbers and letters and the beautiful graphics of these vintage items...
The price of the
Jeanne D'Arc Living magazine has gone up and I did not plan on purchasing it...but when I saw this article on
digits as well as the one on
clockfaces...I am so glad I decided to splurge!
I have purchased different issues of this beautiful magazine from Tracey at
French Larkspur, from Ruth at
The Beautiful Life, from Carol at
Raised in Cotton and from Carole at
Maynard Greenhouse...
All of these wonderful shops are chock a block full of delightful items and these gals all provide the best possible service and take the time to beautifully wrap your purchases.
You can check with them for availability...
Speaking of numbers....tomorrow is an important date as it is our wedding anniversary....
...are you ready?
36.....
I was a child bride, truly I was!!
