Creative Sundries reminds me of an old fashioned general store on the internet where you will find Vintage sewing and crocheting patterns, cookbooks, dolls, pendants, etc. It is run by a mother/daughter Sarah and Carol Eshelman. Sarah and her mother have a very close relationship so being in business together works very well for them both.
They’ve been creating altered art and collage for about 7 years and love to incorporate unusual and quirky objects.

This online store seems to be a way of preserving a simpler time when schedules were slower, and people more sure of what to expect from life. We've come a long way since then but not without a price. There is something to be said for the "good old days", and something we have nearly lost in the "progress" our culture has made to where we are now.
