Newest Treasures

Hello everyone! Today, I wanted to share with you some of my newest treasures I found over the past weekend.

First up is this wonderful, LARGE Vintage mirror we found at a tag sale we had stopped at while helping our oldest son move some things into his new apartment. Originally a shiny gold, I painted it my favorite shabby white, and love it! And it only cost $20



Next is this fab Vintage frame. It too was originally gold, but again, painted it my fav shabby white. This was found at a local thrift shoppe for just $8


I found this the other day at a local GW store, for just $8. Again, another item originally gold, but looking perfectly chic and shabby all painted white!


Lastly, I've had this sweet little table for a few months, but finally got around to painting it now that the weather was perfect for doing so. I chose to paint this a soft pale shabby pink, and it's perfect! I love the way the shelf on the bottom is designed for placing books in.



I'm hoping to do some more Thrift shopping this Saturday, and if I do, I'll be sure to post pics of any treasures that just happen to come home with me :)

Once again, linking up for Kerryanne's wonderful Blog Party, Shabbilicious Friday, so be sure to stop on over and see all the wonderful and shabby inspiration :)

Thanks so much for stopping by! Wishing all of you a wonderful Weekend!

Victorian Bed and Patchwork Pillows

A few days ago I finally got around to "cleaning" up my Antique Victorian bed. This bed is in my sewing room, and I use it as my "table", so to speak, and so it gets really messy and cluttered with all kinds of fabrics and trims and such. So, I've spruced it up a bit, with some pretty Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic ruffled, rosey and pink pillow shams. The 2 large Euro pillows in the back I made using RASSC pink ruffled sheets. Love them!! The 3 large quilted patchwork pillows are all available for purchase on Ebay. Just click the link on my sidebar to take a peek at them if you like.




Here is a better close-up view of the Patchwork pillows. I just love creating these, and it's such a good way to use up the scraps of fabric that I have been accumulating over the years too! I have an old wicker laundry hamper that I keep some of my scraps in.



Hope everyone is enjoying this first day of May ~ It's a gorgeous day here in Michigan, and am loving this warm weather that seemed to take it's sweet time getting here, lol :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!! Have a great day, and rest of the week my friends!!

My Newest Creations on Ebay

Hello Everyone! Goodness, once again it seems it has been a long time since I last posted. I don't get on my blog that often anymore, as I have some days that I watch my grandson while my daughter goes to work as a sub at our preschool. So he keeps me pretty busy, but I love it!

Today I thought I would share with you some of my newest pillows that I currently have available on Ebay. Hope you like them :)

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend, and a Happy Easter!

The Giveaway I won from Sandy at Romantique Inspirations

 

Hello everyone.   I wanted to share with you the wonderful treasures that I received from Sandy over at Romantique Inspirations.   A while ago she hosted a Giveaway, and I was the lucky winner chosen.  Yesterday, the package arrived in the mail from her, and I couldn't wait to open it up!  She had everything so sweetly wrapped and presented.  I love the heart with the pink lace and the pretty vintage wallpaper.  She also included a sweet little notecard.

 

There were 3 different shaped heart shaped storages containers, and inside each of them were wonderful surprises.

 

Inside the first, and smaller box was this beautiful Cherub.  OMG!!  I just LOVE it Sandy!!

 

Also, this sweet little frame was also part of the Giveaway.

 

Inside of the next box was 2 cute little hearts, a candle holder, and a pair of white gloves.  Those are going to come in handy here in Michigan right now because, even though it is officially Spring, Winter just does not want to leave here yet.

 

In the last box was this beautifully decorated ornament, and  porcelain holder.  I think I might just put some pretty dried roses inside of it to display.

 

She also included these white dove ornaments.  These will look wonderful on my Christmas tree  this season!

 

Thank you so much Sandy for hosting such a wonderful and so very generous Giveaway.  I LOVE everything!!!
