Things are going well. My MIL and I are thrifting and crafting away.
C in her 'nerd' glasses...
unhappy K
My MIL found this on one of our excursions (it is most definitely her style and not mine) the stand was unpainted so I had her paint and distress it and then we added the buttons. The dress was dirty so I tea stained it.
I made a button bouquet for the MIL's bathroom.
the multitude of buried dreams represented in this photo -
I thought this was enchanting...
I found this old photo - on the back it says Sybil Baley Portland Rose Festival Queen 1915.
two of the three mirrors we found...
a valet chair that we found - from the 'Bombay Store' - I think it will end up in the guest bedroom...
Oh.
ReplyDeleteI am trying REALLY hard not to be jealous.
Really hard.
It isn't working.
These are all just great. I looooooove the button bouquet and your kiddies are gorgeous as ever. Glad everything is going well. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI like the little heart/dress stand with the buttons. I guess your MIL and I have the same style. :)
ReplyDeleteYour finds are just awesome. C looks so cute in her nerd glasses. hehe I can't see K for some reason. I hope my computer is not melting down. It's getting pretty slow.
Glad things are going well!
Oh I want to go thrifting with you!!!!!! BTW...my students loved your tree photos ;) I am a mirror nut too...mirrors and grapevine wreaths.
ReplyDeleteIts funny, the first time I read this I thought the buried dreams was referring to the button on the bouqet--and the dreams blooming through them : )
ReplyDeleteIts so amazing how art can bring such joy and healing...
Blessed Week : ) Wendy
I wanna come on an "excursion" with you!
ReplyDeleteAll of this is so beautiful, and simple.
You bought it all for me, didn't you! :)
What great finds! And, the button bouquet is so creative.
