Happy October! We know there’s still a few weeks until Halloween, but it might take a bit to find the notions and vintage hardware to replicate this stunning midnight hour carriage lantern we spotted in the September/October issue of Hallmark Magazine. Using ornate metal belt buckles, a lamp finial and drawer pulls, they’ve created a magical and we think amazing idea.
Hallmark has posted the instructions at their website, how to make this one and we've been on the hunt for some hardware links to help out the situation. We posted about some drawer pulls from TrulyMadlyVintage.etsy.com (above) a while back and we're thinking, even old brooches, mirrors, and things like that may work. Below: Lamp Finial from Magpie Found Art, vintage lamp finials from ebay, cast card frame from Lee Valley Tools, and odd lot of vintage hardware from Altered Art Supplies.

what a great idea!
I just finished mine! Used scrapbook elements for the door, windows and accent pieces. Also used buttons for the "hubcaps." Had as much fun picking out the pieces as I did putting them together. :)
We @ Hallmark blogged you on our blog for blogging our pumpkin. Love all for the vintage attachments you showed too! THANKS!
