MOVING TO A NEW HOME


Moving to a new blog home that is!

After years of keeping my blog here at 36 Shea, I'm going to start fresh and move things over to my jillbent.com site.

You can find my new blog here : jillbent.com/journal/

From now on I'll be posting regularly there.

Thanks for so many years of visiting me here at 36 Shea!

I really never get tired of making things with vintage ticking.  I bought this unique piece of vintage cotton ticking last fall, knowing I would wait until spring to use it, but not quite sure how.  Maybe tote bags?  Or a bunch of zip bags?  Or pillows?  Yes, pillows.  I ended up using the whole piece of ticking on these two large pillows and backing them with Belgian linen.  I'm really glad this is what they became.  They are in my shop, just in time for spring to arrive!

Vintage shop update y'all!  Anyone ready for spring?  I am!
Check out these vintage finds I just listed over at jillbent.etsy.com.  I will have more coming next week too!
Thanks for having a look and hope you are all surviving the winter if you live in the North East of the USA.
We still have massive snow piles everywhere.

Hit refresh!  By January my color palette has moved away from cozy grays and browns and I'm craving white walls and fresher colors...bright things to brighten cloudy days.  I'm adding these colorful cotton banners to the sale section of my shop, in case you need a quick way to brighten your place up!  There are just a few left of the above items but I need to make room for new things coming into the shop in 2015!

p.s.  if you are still in the cozy mode, there are a few wool pillows and scarves available in the sale section of my shop as well!  Everything is 20-40% off original prices.

For the holidays, I've added a little sale section to my shop of lovely fall and winter items that are the last (or 2 in some cases) of their kind!  I'd love these to make some one's home a little more cozy this holiday season, so I've discounted them from 20%-40% off the original price.  And although I can't guarantee delivery by Christmas at this point, each item ships the day of purchase, with lovely gift wrapping.  If you are local, contact me at info@jillbent.com and we can skip the shipping charges and arrange for local pickup.

See the SALE section of my Etsy shop here.

Thanks for having a look and happy merry making this winter season!
