After I created two kitchen tags for this set of 3, my eye caught the photo below of lady sifting thru those marvelous 33 albums. Had to include it. I wanted a background that reminded me of 1957 textiles. This little square piece in my stash was so perfect. I chose the bingo game piece because of the 57. I gave it a good distress job and felt it was then complete.
It was interesting that by the time I chose the pieces for the next two kitchen tags, it was obvious that in that time, (models anyway) they wore heels, aprons, and loved that phone. You know, the Ozzie and Harriet look. Oh, and most floors had the two color checker board thing going on. I have really enjoyed putting my tags together. Again, I must salute my group Artists Circle and leader, Cindy Powell.

LinLin,
Your tags are awesome. I love each and everyone of them. I just got a bunch (3 dover books) with women/fashion of the 20s and 30s and your tags are definitely inspiring.
