With the help of @stbritta we managed to get this lovely bride's gown hemmed and taken in on a very narrow timeline. Delivered it the day before, while Cheryl was setting up at one of my favorite venues. 👰🏻👗 #greygables #alexsandras #portlandbride #greygablesestate (at Gray Gables Estate)

Just the other day I passed this clear lucite purse by Majestic and thought maybe I should remove it from Etsy so it could reside in my personal collection with this matching metal and black lucite purse also by Majestic. Naturally, it sold the next day. 👜👯 #1950s #twinsies #lucitepurse #alexsandras #majesticpurse (at AlexSandra's Vintage Emporium)

While we were visiting Tony's sister last month, she sent me home with a few vintage sewing notions. It began with her asking me what these Chadwick Measure Clips do. I prefer to use a flat metal Dritz hem gauge to press a sharp, straight hem and then secure with straight pins. Just from @elysegambino 's verbal description I knew they were also for marking hems. I don't think I've ever used these on a hem before. Has anyone else? Did you find them helpful or time saving? ✂️📏📎 #vintagesewing #vanityfairlingerie #chadwickmeasureclip #vintagesewingnotions (at AlexSandra's Vintage Emporium)

Yesterday's sweetest score was this olde timey foreign coin necklace. 🇫🇷 🇦🇺 🇬🇧 🇵🇭 🇱🇻 🇲🇽 🇧🇪 🇩🇪 #franc #alexsandras #coinnecklace #vintagejewelry (at AlexSandra's Vintage Emporium)

I get all the feels when I hear brides say, "this actually feels comfortable. I love it!" Just a few final stitches and Molly will be all finished. I get nervous when a scalloped hemmed dress needs to be taken up and shortened in the torso, but it all worked out in the end. #happybride #alexsandras #portlandbride #bridalalterations (at AlexSandra's Vintage Emporium)

My favorite thrifting party trick is finding these usually floral, Valentine puzzle handkerchiefs and folding them until I see their secret message. #1950svintage #valentinepuzzle #vintagehandkerchief (at AlexSandra's Vintage Emporium)
