ANTIQUE WEEK ENTRY 3
Letters, letters, and more letters. Found these old mismatched marquee letters at Metrolina over the weekend. Don't know what I'll do with them yet. For now, I like seeing what words I can come up with using the random sixteen letters I picked out. Kinda reminds me of my wood type collection.

metrolina expo's spectacular was pretty darn spectacular this time around. i picked up some of these marquee letters too. love them, but i am also puzzled about how to use them. can't wait to see what you come up with.

Were you the one who took all the good letters?! I couldn't find any vowels besides "I" and "A." :)

I'm now wishing I bought more. I just saw someone selling a single vintage marquee letter on Etsy for $23!!! Ludicrous.

Nope, definitely not me. By the time I got to the marquee letters, the vowels were almost non-existent. Luckily, I found more at an antique shop in SC this week. I paid about the same price.

& yes...$23 is completely ludicrous! Especially after getting them for such a great price at Metrolina :)

Happy crafting!
