Merry Christmas!

Well, November totally got away from me!

Between the vintage market, birthdays and holidays,

I simply could not find time for one single post!

So, before the same can happen to December,

behold some Christmas decorations for this year:

And if I don't get back to you before the end of the year

(which seams likely)

Merry Christmas

and

Happy New Year!

Oregon Street Antique Mall Redo

Last week I expanded my booth at the Oregon Street Antique Mall. I was just too cramped, so when the girl next to me moved to a different location, I immediately snatched it up!

 This is the old side. The door makes a nice focal point, front and center.

New side. Those cute slipcovered chairs are still here.

There are some great new pieces, like this big clock and beautiful old pictures in gorgeous frames.

Here's that really big coffee table!

Cool antique lamp.

Small end table and new cabinet-door sign behind it.

Two benches/tables, one aqua, one grey.

Still lots of chalkboards and pictures and accessories!

Come visit us if you are in the neighborhood!

Crafting With Friends: Wedding Banners, Table Runners, and More!

My friend, Bonnie, the one who encouraged me to start this blog adventure, has been visiting for a week from Massachusetts, and we have been busy sewing, painting and thrift-shopping the entire week!

Her sister is getting married in a couple of weeks and Bonnie volunteered to decorate the hall, so we have made burlap and muslin table runners

mason jars with burlap and ribbon bows

and burlap garlands.

Just to name a few!
