Favorite Vintage Advice: The Medusa

Happy Friday! Let’s share another laugh and a look back at one of my favorite findings from my vast library of vintage resources. Each week, I’ll post amusing advertisements, articles or advice, spanning the topics of domestic arts, fashion, beauty and more. If it’s weird, witty or wacky, you’ll see it here.

This image comes from the cover of Home Arts Magazine, 1937. I don’t know if I could look quite as pleased as the lady below, with dozens of tentacles coming out of my head! At least she’s getting some knitting done at the same time…Speaking of creative multi-tasking, I am getting ready to travel next week, so I had my own grooming marathon. While getting my hair cut and colored (no perm for me!), I sat there working on notes for upcoming Indygo Junction patterns and videos. Then, I helped my daughter with her homework while having a simultaneous manicure/pedicure. Luckily the spelling list did not fall in the pedicure water! Oh, the things we do for beauty…

Check back for more quirky quotes and images each week (and find more of these timeworn tips in my book Vintage Notions)!
