Those Rebekah badges that I made recently have taken on a life of their own. I made this one for Traci who sent me a photo of herself to use.
Another blog reader, Lisa, left me a comment quite awhile ago about a little ice skating badge I had found. Evidently Lisa had always had a little dream about an ice skating career. I made her this little gem.
Since I seem to be on a badge kick I made these two little badges using vintage found items. I especially like the plaid metal frame around the scottie dog...it is an old tape dispenser!
I was also running low on the original photo badges to use (my lodge members were pretty much disbanded). I took the same idea and with some vintage yearbook photos made some new/old badges. Here is flighty, fickle, busybody, chatterbox and meddlesome.
These badges will be showing up on Etsy on Monday night - 6 p.m. (pacific time).
Those badges are so cute and fun! Great idea!

Oh, meddlesome - what a good word! (And what an awful characteristic.) There's a woman who works at the local church's thrift store who I think of as "charming but difficult." Fortunately I don't have to spend a lot of time with her. Just for the charming parts, and I try to leave before she gets difficult.

These are so great Laurie! It's not every day that you see the word meddlesome. Could you make one for me that says Irritable & Queasy? It's so hot and humid out, to the point of making me nauseous!

Love these Lodge Badges! It is such an original and clever idea! Your estate stash of Valentines is wonderful! The ones you got are particularly my favorite. I call them school Valentines. Always inspiring! E
