Friday Finds

Where in the world have I been hiding!?!

I sorta was distracted by all the holiday festivities. 

Then we were hit by a violent stomach virus.

Yet I prevailed and managed to shop.

These shutters only made it in the back door of the store before they sold.

A wonderful way to block unwanted views on your porch.

I have been away for so long, I no only automatically take a photo of every single thing I do, see, or buy.

Like this lovely drop leaf pedestal table.

It was a deal because the seller did not know how to make to extender braces pull out for the leaves.

All it took was a bar of soap.

Really.

Two box loads of vintage postcards - 1500 in all.

It is very pleasant to sit and sort and read the inscriptions.


I have an Etsy listing for them and you can  customize your order by telling me what you want.

A good solid end table with a horrendous paint job.

I like the shape.

AND ...

The red leather top is in decent shape.

For some odd reason there were scads of flags last week at the thrift store.

Really cheap.

I bought the cotton ones to distress for later in the year.

A whole bag of vintage Christmas.

I probably sell twice as much holiday in spring and summer as the fall.

I keep a dedicated space in the booth for each holiday.

Cute little picnic basket.

A lovely ceramic violet bowl.

Four white ironstone restaurant bowls. 

Marked Wellsville China. 

The numeric code indicates they were produced in 1950 in Wellsville, Ohio.

A handmade sorter.

It had a paint accident.

It will be further distressed by paint.

Poor little thing.

You know those drop in things you have to attend around Christmas?

At one pictures were taken in front of the tree.

Then a copy was mailed to us.

Through some trick of the light streaming in the window and from the strands of lights on the tree, Chucks and I magically lost a combined weight of 100 pounds.

So though I have flashed this photo shamelessly on FB, I thought I would flash it here.

Plus you can see my new glasses - RED!

All these years of fighting glasses that never fit right, I found out I should have been wearing CHILDREN'S glasses.

They fit like a charm.

See y'all!
