A Place To Gather......

                    Morning.....well its that time of year again.....
                 when meals are no longer served outside....
                   and the dining room becomes a gathering place once again.....

                   to make sure everyone feels welcome.....thanks so much for coming by! x0x0

Change of season.....

                                                 Does anything say fall better than a huge bouquet of hydrangeas.....
                                                   with shades of pink & green....
                                              they just add that little punch of colour....
                                              that is oh so hard to resist ! Where has September gone....
                            I hope you are able to enjoy the last few days of this glorious month...till next time...x0x0

A Most Unexpected Find...

                                       Happy Sunday everyone.....what a lovely day it is....
                                      did not plan to post today but could not wait to show you what I found...
                                         this awesome little french crate....as soon as I saw it I knew it was coming home with me....funny thing is I found it in a local specialty food shop....and it was not expensive at all !!!! 

                                      I love how it looks on the island....with my vintage dish rack....oh one more thing...my tag sale was a big hit...had no idea what to expect but at the end of the day I had very few things left and had made more money than I thought possible...may become a yearly event !  Enjoy your day and thank you so much for making my blog part of it! x0x0 Chrissy

Vintage Pharmacy Lamp.....

                                      Good morning! Wanted to show you what I found at Christie's Antique Sale on Sat. what an amazing day it was!!!!!  O.k ready???  First thing I spotted was this old pharmacy lamp ....in working order..he wanted $50 for it but after a bit of "chat & blather" and I must confess eyebatting I got it for.........$35......WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE....I am off to a good start...
                                         then came the stack of envelopes for $10( each with letters in them)...then the old french clock...how cute is it!?!?!
                                          Next up my lovely enamel #12 sign....my heart was pounding a mile a minute when I saw it....no break on the price on this baby but I didn't plan on leaving without it..
                                           Oh and earlier in the week I made a trade at Antique Avenue for this beautiful old seltzer bottle,I have always wanted one of these and this one is stunning...

                      The only thing I got that is not in this vignette is an old wire tray.....still have to find a home for it....
