Taken from an antique page of The Pictorial Review from 1923. These kids would look really cute colored in!

Vintage Graduation Program
Too early to be wishing for graduation day already?
My bf and I live directly across from an elementary school and school started last week. While we enjoy 2 1/2 months of complete quiet bliss during the summer, it is hell twice a day to live here during the rest of the year. Cars block the street with parents picking up their kids in the morning and afternoon and I'm always worried that someone will hit my car while rudely turning around in our driveway. In fact I think someone already has scratched my car but I can't prove it because I wasn't watching at the time. We put the trash cans up to block the entrance to our driveway but people hit them anyway. Sigh.
Anyway, here is a really pretty Victorian graduation program I've been holding on to for quite some time. Enjoy! -Sarah

Vintage Clip Art- Dolls of the World
As a child, I wasn't really into dolls much- I was more of the stuffed animal type. However, as I get older I really like dolls more. Some of my favorite are from this Etsy shop called, Cart Before the Horse. Their hand painted faces are just extraordinary. Anyway, here is today's image of dolls around the world. Have a great weekend everyone! -Sarah

Lovely Designs Uses a Vintage Moth image!
I was super excited to receive an email from one of my blog followers, Morgan, yesterday afternoon. She used one of the images here on The Vintage Moth in a jewelry piece! And it's so cute!
She has posted a tutorial on how she made this necklace on her blog, Lovely Designs. Thank you so much Morgan for sharing with us!

Vintage Book Plate
I love to read and I love books! I love to visit the library and even have library cards for every city library around. (However, I haven't visited a couple in a while because a have a few fines and therefore have been banned from checkout until those are repaid. Don't share that with anyone.)
I always have a couple of books around that I'm reading at one time. One that I'm reading now is. "The Geeks Shall Inherit the Earth: Popularity, Quirk Theory, and Why Outsiders Thrive After High School" by Alexandra Robbins. It's about how the kids in high school that weren't popular and therefore labeled "geeks" (e.g. myself), come out on top in the end because of the different way they are wired. It's very good!
Anyway, here is today's image, a vintage bookplate with room to fill in your name.
