I'm a Goner!

17 years ago

OK....You've done it! Yesterday I went shopping after lunch with my DD, not many choices in our twin cities except about a 100 antique stores. Oh! My aching feet. But I swear to goodness that everything associated with St. Patty's Day or Easter gained a new price sticker...lol

We did find some goodies at what the owner calls a recycling shoppe, two great apothecary jars, a large dome shaped vase and huge brandy snifter, along with several Easter figurines and a fantastic wire tea pot/candle holder that will work just perfect with my vintage 30's patio table and chairs. I also found the cutest hen that when you lift her from her nest you reveal her eggs. (I love chickens!) And as it was my BD outing, my DD included several things I really took a second look at and put back. Sneaky kid! Anyway now I need to get busy and put some vignettes together.

Jane, thank you for the welcome and you and Luv didn't miss my B'Day....DD just couldn't get any other time off so it was put on hold until now. But thank you both for the kind thoughts!

When I showed my DH what we bought he just shook his head and asked " and where are you going to put this stuff?" I'll find a place!

Welcome Belle! Thanks for sharing the details of your shopping trip. OF COURSE, you are a "Goner"! We all are once we get entangled in this web of dish addicts - but isn't it FUN! Would love to see some pics of the vignettes you put together.
