Random Whites


My girlfriend and her family came to visit us last weekend.

So, of course I did a little rearranging.

I did some tiding/a little cleaning.

Which means I was also taking pictures.

Here are some random whites for WHITE WEDNESDAY
I am sharing with Kathleen from Faded Charm.





I love all of the different textures and variations of white.


Dark against light.


Green, another color you will find throughout my home.





Shells for summer memories.




Candles to light at night.


This picture is just so me, silver, mirror, green, buttons and white plates.

I hope you enjoyed my randomness.
Be sure to stop by and visit all the other wonderful bloggers joining for White Wednesday.

I am sharing my whites with Courtney from French Country Cottage for Feathered Nest Friday.

Treasure Hunting

Today I went treasure hunting at a small flea market in Gettsville, not too far from my home.
I met up with my girlfriend visiting from CA, she and I spent most of our summers together as kids.
We got to the flea market early so we wouldn't miss out on too much.

I know I didn't!

LOOK AT THE LOOT!


It is hard to choose what my favorite is.


I found these vintage wooden type blocks. 
I was only going to buy my favorite #'s and letters, but I took a chance and asked how much for all?
SOLD!
(run away before she figures out how much I probably should have paid)



A small bag of assorted jewelery for making tags.


A silver ice bucket. 


BUTTONS, BUTTONS, LOTS OF BUTTONS
Two tins FULL of buttons.
I will be sorting tonight during movie night.


Not one
 but
TWO white iron urns!

OH YEAH HAPPY DANCE!!!!!!!!!!





Vintage English ironstone pitcher.


Great colors on a vintage quilt from one of my favorite vendors and a good friend of mine.

I also found a crocheted edge runner and a chippy header trim that will make a great shelf.

I think my girlfriend had fun too, even though she has to worry about breakage and shipping, she did manage to find a pretty English rose teacup and saucer to take home.

I am glad we went early because it left the rest of the day to lounge by the pool.

I hope you are having a great day too!
