They Had Me At Hello




I found a few treasures recently.

We'll start with a little rusty metal number.
Rusty metal and me- surprise surprise!

 I originally bought this guy to display blooms.

 But then I realized he would be a super fun way 
to store all my ribbon

and keep it organized!
Now I just need a craft room to display him properly.
But I think I'll wait to mention that to my husband . . .


Then I spotted this lil' lady.

 Will you look at those feet!
With all her wheels!
And the sweetest little foot peddle!

 I originally bought her to resell,
but oh she's so cute!
And the girls gave her a name . . .

 Meet Miss Booby!

Oh dear . . . 
I know!
I really did try to bite my lip and not smile . . .
but the giggles won me over!
So Miss Booby it is!
Wouldn't she be a fun way to display 
all my jewelry and blooms? 


Then there are these 2 sweet numbers.

He had me at aqua.


 This sheet

is perfect cheestastic vintage fabric.
I may attempt to SEW a little curtain for my kitchen.

Have I ever told you how thankful I am that I get to 
shop for fun vintage treasures 
ALL THE TIME 
because of my little space at Station 8?
I got a good gig goen'.

Now I just need to stop falling in love 
with everything I bring home! 


Hope you have a splendid day 
filled with little things that make you smile!

  2. Love it all! I wish I knew how to find some good places to go junkin' around here. I have a favorite flea market but it is 1 hour 30 min drive so I don't get to go monthly like I'd like. I need somewhere local!

    I have wanted a Miss Booby for a while now.... someday I'll find the perfect one!

  10. Haha! So cute! I say it would be bad business if you just got these things and put them right to the store. You need to test them out first, right?
