Fashion Painting, 1974

Here again, I must apologize for the lack of patterns...apparently my grandmother swiped these too!

Don't forget the reason I'm doing these crafty 1970's posts currently....it's to promote and lead up to the revival this coming weekend (April 19-22) of the Old Oak Festival at Tusculum College in Greeneville, Tennessee! The festival started in 1975 and ran for almost twenty years before being cancelled...and this will be the first festival since it was phased out twenty years ago! If you're in the area, stop by!

Ad of the Day: Artex Textile Painting 1974

Magical crafting...apparently brought to you by the horse from The NeverEnding Story....

This reminded me of the Good Morning Starshine scene in A Very Brady Sequel



And here's another Artex fashion painting ad from the same year....

I'm not sure what I think about this...although I DID enjoy the puff paint craze of the early '90s...of course, I also enjoyed Milli Vanilli.......HEY, I was too young to know better, ok??!!!
