A Little Somethin' Vintage

I found this vintage spool cotton box in the storage space of our old house and my sweet mother-in-law gave me these lovely spools of thread. Don't ya just love {free} vintage lovelies?!

Fleas and 'Tiques

During a recent visit to Arkansas, I stopped by one of my favorite Flea Market/Antique shops called Fleas and 'Tiques. Here are some of the lovelies that I found:

Aren't these pink juice glasses darling? They probably only hold 6 ounces or so. Growing up my mom always poured us a glass of juice in a tiny vintage glass like these. We had to drink our little cup of juice before going to school :)



Aren't these pink hobnail sherbet cups dreamy? I love all things hobnail and combined with this color...I really wanted to bring these home!


A whole wall of depression glass. And it's all pink! Imagine that.


These striped glasses reminded me of summertime. Can't you see them lined up on a tray with a pitcher of sweet tea? I resisted the urge to buy them. Which is good since I just bought some thrifty jars to use as glasses.


Vintage blue tinted mason jars with zinc lids. I wanted the whole shelf but settled on just one of these pretties to put in my windowsill above the sink.



What have you spotted on your latest shopping venture?

A trip to the thrift store


I have been itching to go to a local thrift shop. Now that the holidays are over, I treated myself to a short trip! I enjoyed just browsing and looking for potential among the junk. I limited myself to these pretties:

I have no idea if these jars are old or new but I thought they had a lovely vintage look. Can't you picture them next to a pitcher of lemonade? I bought eight. I guess that means I really liked them :)





I also found this old tin. Rustic and simple.



For a grand total of $10. What have you thrifted lately?

Farewell Christmas Tree

As we pack up all the Christmas decor, I thought I would snap some photos of these vintage bulbs. Some were my dad's when he was a child. Others I picked up at a thrift shop.





I'm glad I saved all my egg cartons this year. They are just the perfect size for storing all these vintage lovelies.
