| It's been a great day so far, and it's not over yet! I decided to do some shopping today and boy did I get lucky! I found a new haunt (yes, you can ask but I won't tell anyone where it is!) I found this beautiful print (it reminds me of Rachel Ashwell). |
 |
| Stunning right? Can't wait to hang a prized rosary around it.... |
 |
| Never ever pass up an old package of dennison crepe paper! (In my etsy shop right now) |
 |
| A very cool embossed anagrams game (in my etsy shop right now) |
 |
| A shabby and oh-so-cool cigar box (in my etsy shop right now) |
 |
| Most of my casual acquaintances have no idea what a vintage office geek I am....so finding this book was pure serendipity! You should see the ads inside of it.... |
 |
| The clipper clip? I'll take 20 boxes please! |
 |
| Ditto for both of these items please! |
 |
| Oh my goodness, are you kidding me? Yes, please and thank you!!! |
 |
| Yet more to love, keep it coming! This doesn't even scratch the surface of what these lucky people had to choose from back in the day! |
 |
| This was a happy Goodwill find.....usually they don't have items this old in my Goodwill's (in my etsy shop soon) |
 |
| And if you're still with me...this beauty (found at my new haunt) that was made in France...a wonderful french strainer. |
 |
| It collapses down for storage, the handle folds in, and it's beyond wonderful.... (soon to be in my etsy shop). If you're still with me, you're to be commended! And I thank you. Tomorrow my dd goes for an overnight field trip with her class (her first ever) so I'm saying my prayers now! I do hope she has an exceptional time....somehow I know she will. As for me and my dh, we're having a date night. There were opportunities to volunteer to go and be a chaperone (oh, make sure you bring your sleeping bag because that's what you sleep in!) I declined gracefully, and am putting my faith in my dd that she can handle this on her own. I don't want to be one of those "helicopter" parents who have to oversee each and every detail....I say let them live their lives and make their own way.....!! |

Good decision Gail.
There is no way I would ever sleep in a sleeping bag, lol
I am sure she will have tons of fun.
I found a set of those anagrams back home at an auction. It was a lot auction and they tossed it in with another guys stuff, I went over gave the guy a $1 and he let me have it :)
