LOVIN' THESE ANTIQUES...

Oh hooray! I just love getting new goodies in the shop! Isn't this little verse just the truth? Friend Bonnie stitched it on a beautiful wool picture. We are working feverishly to get everything in order for our P.J. Party/Shop Hop on Saturday and I'm loving some of the new wares.
Sweet Sharon painted this old birdhouse and it is adorable. Wouldn't it look great in a garden? Don't know what I'd do without her. Tomorrow she is delivering two big boxes of goodies to the booth at the Livingston Antique Outlet for us.

Couldn't resist these little chicks!

This picture is so darn dark, but it is a wonderful old butter press.

This blue rolling pin is so unusual, I've never seen a blue one before.
Transferware is always a big hit. This creamer and sugar bowl are so pretty with the unusual shade of blue.
This sweet little bunny came from Carol and would be perfect for some spring flowers or a little pitcher on your breakfast table.
Another dark picture - darn it! Wish you could see these little zippered shoes. They are dark blue with black patent around the tops. Just too cute!
Our Sharon is so talented. She painted fireflys on this old oil lamp that is now electrified. Perfect for an enclosed porch in the summertime.
I tried to get the details of the painting, but - again - dark!
Hope you are all having a wonderful day. This is hubby's late night at work, so I plan to sew, sew, sew! I have a million ideas swirling around my head and can't wait to get started. SO... Off to the work table and sewing machine.
Until next time...

  1. Dawn, what wonderful inventory, how I would love to participate in the "PJ'S event, sounds like a lot of fun. I especially liked the blue rolling pin, I have never seen one quite like it before, is it an antique? Have a great weekend, eight inches of snow forcast for us here in New England.
