Happy Monday!!

Happy Monday Everyone!!  What a beautiful weekend...sad it is over!!  We had PERFECT California weather...spent the day at Cayucos Beach yesterday and wandered around an Antique Fair down by the pier.  WONDERFUL!!  Also had some time to finish up some signs & add them to my Etsy shop... 









Organized some cabinets too.  I never know what to do with collectibles like this...vintage pie dish from my Gramma.  I don't remember her actually using it...so it is not necesarily  sentimental to me.  I Have had it for about 7 years and I have never used it or even displayed it.  I LOVE it...but it does not really "go with" my home.  Just kind of takes up space...hmmm maybe I will put it on Etsy???  

Hope you have a beautiful day!!

Sweet Spring Blossoms and What the Heck???

I just love these blossoms in an old pink vase!!  I think they are Jasmine????  Whatever they are...the smell is divine!!



OK...found this old pottery figurine at the thrift store...the yummiest color of blue ever and only .25!!!  But....what the heck is it???  We have guessed that it is a little deer...with a cat face...

Happy Sunday!!

Oh PLEASE!!!

So this week...I found these super cute Steve Madden Sandals at the Thrift store...GREAT condition & only $3.00!!! 

My 13 year old daughter..."No offense mom, but they kind of look like old mom shoes." 

ME:   THE LOOK..."FIRST...I am an old mom...second...just because you say NO OFFENSE first does not make it not offensive...Third...I have black nail polish on my toes...how many old moms do you know that wear black nail polish????"
   
On a much brighter note...I also found this WONDERFUL turquoise & white vintage umbrella...looks like it has never been used!!  The white fringe is in perfect condition and it comes with a cool metal clamp!!!  Hellow picnic table when we camp!!!  FUN!!



Hope you have had a wonderful Sunday!!
