As I mentioned a couple of posts ago, Lisa and I went to the most amazing flea market, hosted by Joe and Jermonne from the Barn House. We had a ton of fun and came back with some great treasures, which I will share later in this post! Enjoy the pictures!
Here is Lisa, Joy and moi!
I brought this gorgeous dresser home with me... (bought from sweet Natalie, from Sparrow)
J&J live in the most beautiful country home, decorated with incredible detail and right out of a magazine page!! I had shared some pictures a while ago, but I couldn't resist snapping a few more pictures!!
My favorite part of the house!!! Can you tell?!!
I came home with...
a couple of vintage pink ticking pillows...
... a large panel of of barkcloth...
... a darling barkcloth purse...
... a vintage slip, a candleholder with barbola detail, a piece of ticking, a musical jewelry box, a pillowcase and... my favorite find of the day, a handpainted fabric glove box! How adorable is it?!!!

ReplyDeleteCoconut Lime Sour Bars
Crust:
2 C flour
4 T sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 stick plus 2 1/2 T butter
Mash together (dry, but holds together). Pour into 13x9 baking dish. Press into pan as evenly as possible. Bake at 350 degrees for minutes.
Filling:
4 eggs
1 C chopped almonds
3 C coconut flakes
1 1/2 C brown sugar
Mix and spread over hot baked crust. Bake 30 more minutes.
Glaze:
4 T lime juice (2 limes)
1 1/2 C powder sugar
2 tsp lime zest
glaze while HOT. Work quickly.
I usually add a little bit more lime juice to thin the glaze a bit.
ENJOY!
Natalie
BLESS YOUR HEART, sweet Natalie!!!
