Vintage Pieces

 Just a few vintage pieces picked up as the week went by.  This was my last full week of physical therapy.  I will be glad to get back to painting and shopping!

 Now is the time to stock up on blankets for the fall and winter.  I found this Hudson Bay Point Blanket in red and black.  It will go with a previous blanket find. Other blanket find here!  I love them rolled into bolsters for beds.





 There is the blanket standing in as a backdrop for the wood shelf and the three wood plaques.  I did come straight home and work on the shelf.

 I promise to show you soon.

 I haven't yet decided how to use the plaques.







 A Carom board - no pieces - just the board.  Great hanging on the wall as the headboard for a twin bed.  Or imagine it lying on the floor under a small Christmas tree.

 A green wire serving tray.

 A gold basket - perfect for fall.








These two seem more spring than fall, but I am sure that can be remedied!

 I might go out and hunt tomorrow morning if the weather cooperates.  

 Chucks and I do not have anything special planned for the holiday.

 I hope you don't labor too much on Monday!

 See y'all!






Come party at Party Junk 202!

    A head board or a Christmas tree base! Brilliant ideas both of them!

    You have some great ideas! I never would have thought of putting a tree on that game board. Brilliant! Do you let you clients know all the different possibilities with your finds at your booth?

    You always find such fun stuff! I never knew those boards were called Carom boards. I have no idea what that game is, but it would look cool under a Christmas tree!!
