HOLLYWOOD ICONS

Movies were a big part of my life growing up. I admired big screen legends like Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Deborah Carr. Give me a romantic epic, and I was done for the night. *sigh*

I want to share with you some of my finds.




The next item is an original painting. It captures the true essence of Audrey Hepburn in her hay day.


What baby boomer hasn't seen "Gone With The Wind" a few times? I know I have.
I imagine myself, back in the day, cuddled up in from of the T.V. with a box of tissue and eating a ton of popcorn. I drooled over Rhett Butler (Clark Gable) and hollering at Scarlet, "kiss him, you fool!!!" *sigh* I digress.

"Gone With The Wind" Cross stitch or knitting or crochet pattern 002 - houseofstitches - $4.00

My all time favorite romantic movie, without a doubt - hands down, is "An Affair to Remember -1967". (The remake of the "Love Affair" - 1939) Cary Grant stole my heart and (I'm dying if I'm lying) every other young girl's as well. *Gush*

Love Affair - Cary Grant - Deborah Carr - Artisticcollage - $50.00

I hope you enjoyed taking a stroll down memory lane with me. You can find these awesome items in the respective sellers shop. It was fun.

This blog is dedicated to the memory of;
David Carradine - December 8 1936 - June 3, 2009

  6. Wonderful post! I love old movies and their fashions. I always loved Myrna Loy and Grace Kelly. I took the Facebook quiz "Which actres are you?" and I was most like Judy Garland.

  7. I look forward to the Ingrid Bergman piece, Pam. You must be very proud of Ryan. He has a great future ahead of himself if he continues on this route.

    Wow, Tricia - Judy Garland! That'f pretty cool!
