Fun and Odd

Well, just as it says: fun and odd stuff

Please note sizes of items carefully.
Many appear much smaller or larger than they really are.
I recommend a ruler with inches and centimeters to gauge the size of items.

I will accept returns of items regardless [100% no questions asked],
but you can save yourself time and fustration by checking sizes first.

Full sized collage sheets are 8.5" X 11" (full sheet of paper). They appear here on the website smaller than actual size. They are laser printed on bright white paper and all of the graphics are public domain either due to age, declaration of creator, etc. If you find a copyrighted graphic on any of my collage sheets, please let me know so I may remove it.

Mini collage sheets approximately 3.5" x 5" (index card size). They are high resolution images that are about 1-1.25" (2.5-3 cm) X 1.5" (4 cm) in general. They are laser printed on bright white paper and all of the graphics are public domain either due to age, declaration of creator, etc. If you find a copyrighted graphic on any of my collage sheets, please let me know so I may remove it.

Preservation issues: My collage sheets and transparancies are laser printed, however, if you are concerned about acidity and other preservation issues, please pre-treat them. All other items - especially paper items that are not collage sheets - should be assumed to not be acid free and should be treated accordingly.

Old-time Frames I

Larger Picture

I found an old typesetters catalog and it had some fantastic graphics! This is the first of the collage sheets I've made from them - this one full of frames and ornaments. They have a sort of stamped look because they were, in a way, stamped: these were done with the old metal movable type. Have fun!

'Orphan Images' Grab Bag

'Orphan Images' Grab Bag

Sometimes a collage sheet gets misprinted, and often time these sheets have only some of the images messed up (one side cuts off, etc.) The rest of the images are still usable. I salvage these images, and you can get an incredible deal on them. You get 15-20 laser printed public domain images for $1.00. That's less than 10¢ an image! All images are 2.5 X 3" [6.3 X 7.5 cm] or less.

On Sale!!

'Orphan Images' Grab Bag: $0.75

Joss Paper

Joss Paper

Glorious thin sheets of gilded paper from the Orient. Usually burnt in ceremonies associated with Feng Shui for cleansing, but wonderful for artwork. These particular sheets are about 6" x 6", and very very thin. Be sure to treat for acidity, etc. if preservation issues are important to you. You get 10 sheets for a $1.00 (US)!!

Joss Paper: $1.00

Small Corked Bottles

Small Corked Bottles

These little bottles are great for holding your tiny treasures. They are 1½" tall and ¾" around, with a cork that is just under ½" round. [About 38mm tall x 19mm round with a 12mm round cork.] The beads in the picture are just for illustration only, you are buying just the bottle. But what fun little bottles they are!

Small Corked Bottles: $1.50

Asian Hairsticks - One Pair

Asian Hairsticks - One Pair

These 7" [17.8 cm]long hair sticks have lots of possibilities. You get one pair [our choice]. All of them have decals with Asian designs on them [Japanese ladies, floral patterns, etc]. And while you could use them in your art almost anywhere you would use chopsticks, I don't recommend eating with them. They are of Chinese origin and are sold as 'hairsticks' and therefore I have no idea whether the paint is food-safe.

Asian Hairsticks - One Pair: $1.00

US Postage Stamps - Misc

US Postage Stamps - Misc

This is a little pack of 10 cancelled U.S. postage stamps. They will vary from the scan (I have lots!) but all 10 will be different. (If you order more than one, expect a few duplicates though.) They are all still stuck on paper, but you could steam them loose. The newest I've found among them is a 32¢ stamp from 1991. The oldest go back to the 1950s at least. Many are from the 1970s and 80s. You can get anything in a set: flags, Christmas stamps, famous people, Olympics, airmail, flowers, birds, etc. You get 10 different stamps for 25¢.

US Postage Stamps - Misc: $0.25

Tiny Bag of Beads

Tiny Bag of Beads

Here's a tiny grab bag for you. You get a 2" X 2" [5 cm X 5 cm] little baggie full of small beads and charms. What you get WILL be different from the scan, of course. It will be stuffed with gemstone beads, glass beads, metal beads, and brass charms - mostly glass beads, from tiny 15o seed beads up; some fancy, mostly plain. But lots of fun none-the-less. All for $1!

Tiny Bag of Beads: $1.00

Green and White Spangles

Green and White Spangles

Okay, sometimes I find the strangest stuff. But I got such a good deal on these and I'm hoping someone else sees the potential craftiness in them. These are bags of 8 mm sequins intermixed with tiny seed beads. The sequins are white with somewhat fewer green ones mixed in and the beads are clear. What can you do with them? I'm not sure. But for 25¢, it's probably worth finding out...

Green and White Spangles: $0.25

Red Spangles

Red Spangles

Okay, sometimes I find the strangest stuff. But I got such a good deal on these and I'm hoping someone else sees the potential craftiness in them. These are bags of 8 mm sequins intermixed with tiny seed beads. This particular style package [yes, they were pre-packaged!] has red sequins and red seed beads and throws in 2 "pearl" end floral/hat pins in for a bonus. What can you do with them? I'm not sure. But for 25¢, it's probably worth finding out...

Red Spangles: $0.25

Studio G Alphabet Stamps: Puzzle Letters

Studio G Alphabet Stamps: Puzzle Letters

From Series 4 of Studio G's alphabet stamps comes this wonderful little set of stamps. The letters are all on little puzzle shapes. Each tiny wood mounted stamp is just over ¼" [.5 cm] square. You get 30 little stamps: all 26 letters of the English alphabet plus "?","!","&", and ".". Great deal for just $1.50!

Studio G Alphabet Stamps: Hexagonal Letters

From Series 4 of Studio G's alphabet stamps comes another wonderful little set of stamps. The letters are all in little hexagon shapes.

You get 30 little stamps: all 26 letters of the English alphabet plus "?","!","&", and ".". Great deal for just $1.50!

Studio G Alphabet Stamps: Hexagonal Letters: $1.50

Atlas Pages

Atlas Pages

Some time back I acquired an old, coffee table atlas - with huge 11" X 18" [or there about] pages. It was from 1970 though - interesting, but useless for helping my kids with their geography lessons. The Soviet Union was still in one piece, Yugoslavia still existed, and some of the countries in Africa had not yet gained independence. Rather than throw it out, I decided to recycle it. I'm now offering 'half' pages [about 8.5" X 11" give or take a bit] at 5 for $1. You will get 5 half pages with maps on both sides. I will try to honor requests for specific parts of the world [Europe, Asia, etc.] but I can't promise I'll be able to fulfill them. And remember, these pages need to be treated for acidity if you are concerned about such things.

Atlas Pages: $1.00

US Stamps: Presidents and Flags

US Stamps: Presidents and Flags

This is like the Misc U.S. stamp grab bag - they are all old cancelled stamps from between the 1950s and 1991. Most are from the 1970s and 1980s. This set, however, is just stamps featuring U.S. presidents or U.S. flags. If you order more than one set of this kind, you are almost guaranteed to have duplicates, but there will be no two alike in any single pack of 10. Lots of fun for just 25¢.

US Stamps: Presidents and Flags: $0.25

US Stamps: Christmas Stamps

US Stamps: Christmas Stamps

A grab bag of 10 US Christmas stamps from between the 1950s and 1991, with most being from the 1970s and 80s. All are cancelled and still attached to paper, though you could steam them loose if you want. You will get 10 different Christmas stamps in each pack, though if you order more than one you will likely get a duplicate or two. Just 25¢ for some tiny collage fun. Great for shrines and ATCs!

US Stamps: Christmas Stamps: $0.25
