Wishing you a lovely week! 

A sweet start to June

Happy June ((already!))

The weeks seem to just be flying by! 

There's just not enough time in a day to do all the things I want to do! Lol. 

Here is a cute clothespin bag I brought home with me from a barn sale. I was so excited to have found it! After seeing Heather's from Vintage Grey, I've been wanting to make one, and this would be a perfect example/pattern for me to start one!! When I seen it, I immediately thought of her sweet clothespin bags that she's been making! :)  

 Vintage hankie scarf I made up for my booth (at Uptowne Shoppes)

{My lady likes modeling things}

Here are a few pillows I recently took up to my booth, I hope someone will give them a loving home :) 

And my other lady has been trying on patriotic skirts. 

I thought this one was so cute, I picked this up also at the barn sale. 

Love how darling the ruffle is and the red ric rac trim.  

 A few Vintage Market Tote Bags went up to the shop (in my booth)

and pssst there's a sale on them too! 

 And here are a couple crochet smell good sachets,

 filled with "Apples and Maple Bourbon" ....these were kind of fun to make! 

Have you been up to anything fun lately?? :) 

Hope you are having a lovely fresh start to June! 

Have a wonderful day!

Glass Bird Feeders with Vintage Dishes

Happy day to you all!! 

I made these glass bird feeders, one for my mom and one for my grandma for Mother's day a few weeks ago, and wanted to share them!! I use vintage dishes, don't you just love the tea cups on the top!?! 

 I just love how pretty all the glass looks together too! 

Hubby and I are going out to plant our little garden right now, and I'm planning to work on a couple more pin cushions tonight and hopefully get started on another owl softie :)  Are you doing anything fun and crafty tonight?? :) 

This morning I made a Strawberry Rhubarb pie and I'm off to taste it now! :) Hope it's good!! I'll share the recipe if it is!! :)

My 'New' Antique Sewing Machines

Oh i'm so excited to share with you my "new" antique sewing machines!!!

Aren't they gorgeous!!! I've been wanting an old one for a while now, and I ended up with two!! 

I haven't looked into any model numbers yet, it looks like all the parts are there, I think they are ready to sew! Lol. At the same time I found these, my dad found one too! We looked like sewing machine hogs that day we came home from the sale! He got a Singer with a very long arm, his came on a table with the original light and thread holder. I'll have to get a picture of his to show you too!

 They are actually pretty heavy, 

so I had to make two trips, and boy did I have the biggest smile on my face through those trips!! 

 They even came with the cases too!

Who's excited for the holiday weekend? 

I know we are looking forward to it. Tomorrow we are going to garage saleing, maybe hit a few antique stores that we normally don't get to go into, there's a farmers market, and local shopping outside. And then we will probably grill some tasty food with my parents/family :) And maybe play a few outside games!

Wishing you a beautiful weekend!! 

and 

Happy Memorial Day!!!

A work in progress and some antique quilts

Hi there, Happy Thursday!! 

I can't believe it's almost the weekend again! Time just flies by! If you follow me on Facebook, you might have already seen a couple of these pictures. Here's a peak of what I'm working on :) 

I got some of this sweet material from Donna at Donna's Lavender Nest, a while back. I've been saving it to make something lovely with it. :) I just love the way my little pin cushion looks in the vintage jello mold tin! :) 

I picked up a couple more quilts!

This large purple one I just recently put in one of my booths at the shop 

{Uptowne Shoppes LaPorte, IN}

 This one, when I bought if from the sweet old lady, said her husband's mom had made it. I just love the colors and pattern of it, (I'll have to get a better picture to show you) when we have a sunny day.

Here's the purple one again. Would be so cute for a little girl's room!

 Don't you think??

  

I also found this!!! I've been wanting an old canning caddy with jars :) 

I'm excited for it, I'm not sure if I want to put a few stems of flowers in them or put some crafting supplies in it. Either way it will be loved! 

Hope you have a lovely day today!!

Sweet Joys of May

Hi there! Happy Monday!

How are you? Mom and I went to get some pretty flowers last week to this beautiful greenhouse. Everything there is always so gorgeous! And very reasonably priced too! I'll have to show a few pictures later in the week of my flowers. I've been pretty busy playing outside, planting, and building a couple fairy gardens too! Luke and I got the cars washed and some good yard work in over the weekend! The horses are enjoying the weather too! Mom and I bathed them all two weeks ago, and they are shedding like crazy right now....so lots of brushing, getting that winter hair off! :) 

Here's one of the flowers I got....pretty pink!

I picked some lilacs on my way up the drive way one morning from feeding the horses. They are one of my favorites, love the way they smell!!! I put them in a little vintage teapot in the kitchen. 

 Our apple trees are all blooming, so pretty.....

 A couple close ups of the apple tree blooms :) 

Jerry wanted to say HI to everyone!! 

(( He's so funny, this toy around his neck is actually a pool toy and somehow he got a hold of it and loves, loves it!! It throws like a frisbee, which he loves those too, but this one is super light and there's a whole in the middle. So we'll throw it and he'll run after it and scoop it up around his neck and bring it back!! So silly! haha. 

 We love him <3 

Wishing everyone a beautiful week full of some crafty goodness 

and happy thrifting too!!
