Hey everyone, I hope you are all having a wonderful week! I'm a bit under the weather and my computer is still acting up, so I'm hoping I can get this post done without a glitch. I wanted so much to participate in Show And Tell Friday hosted by Cindy at My Romantic Home. Also, my husband was home for a couple of days, and since he can't be with me next week on my birthday, he took me shopping!! Yea, my favorite thing to do! Here are some of my treasures that I picked up...
If you follow my blog you know I am obsessed with vintage white ironstone, so I got this lovely ironstone pitcher to add to my growing collection. I don't think it is super old, but I love it anyway!
I got these pretty vintage books. I love the cover on the top book, it is just fabulous!
This is on the inside of the bottom book above, The Mother Mary.
Just beautiful!
My new books went perfectly with my other 2 vintage books I already owned. I guess there is a color theme going on here, sage green and cream.
And my favorite gift of all, this great old green chippy trunk. It's actually on casters and has tons of storage space on the inside. It is perfect for my coffee table or maybe at the end of my bed for blankets. We'll see.
Finally, I just finished a new design. It is made with turquoise nuggets and vintage gold pearls.
For some reason, I just have not been motivated to make any new designs lately. This is the first new design in a month that I have finished! I hope I can find some more inspiration soon!
Thank you so much for visiting me today, it really means so much for me to read your lovely comments!!
Please make sure and visit the other participants at My Romantic Home for Show And Tell Friday!
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
~Melinda
