So I haven't posted in awhile. I've been busy copywriting and editing. Business is booming this time of year:) I did find time last week to take in a second-hand store with my mom.  Check out the goodies I found:

Three vintage doilies that make a terrific shabby valance!

Tiny saucer that called to me.

Getting my shabby chic on with vintage Fire King handled bowls!

I'm completely unsure what to do with this cute little pot rack. Most of my pots are not display-worthy, but I've wanted a pot rack since Hector was a pup:)

Tin advertising tray from the Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company, also known as the A&P. My love of tin ad trays is building. I now have three in my collection -- all reproductions, but lovely nonetheless.
