Biology, Bingo, and (a Little Bit of) Bling.

Recent vintage finds on Etsy include a mild-mannered feline with emerald green eyes, a cream-colored silk dress bedecked in gold sequins, a nearly century-old guide to Jiu Jitsu, and a dictionary twenty-thousand words strong. Who says antiquing has to be a snooze?

  4. LOVE that dress, it caught my eye right away.

    Question: how do you make that picture grid? I've been trying to figure out how to make one for some time now, but despite my (what I think are quite advanced =P) Googling skills, I haven't had any luck.

  10. The dress is amazing, I know - if only I had an occasion to wear it!

    Raquel, I make them using Photoshop. I was totally lost before taking Blogshop, but the collage-making isn't too complicated. Do you have a Photoshop-savvy friend in LA who could give you some pointers?

    Christina, was that a few weeks ago already? So great to meet you, too!
