Soccer hair

A part of my ritual every weekend with my daughter is to figure out what hair style we are going to create for her soccer games... It truly sets her apart and we enjoy it tremendously! Who said you can't play sports and look stylish at the same time...? 


(my friend Randy came up with this style...!)

Lost and forgotten...

 The other day, as I was going through my attic treasures, I came across a black trash bag full of pillows. When I opened it, I realized they were brought back from a show a long time ago... So long, in fact, that I had completely forgotten about them! Among the pillows was this set of shams by Pine Cone Hill. I couldn't believe I had tried to sell them at one point... I love them so much and they look wonderful in my bedroom!!!







Have you ever sold something only to regret it? Have you tried to sell something for a while, then ended up finding the perfect spot for it in your own home? That has happened to me...

I tried to sell this darling cabinet for months, and when I brought it home I found a spot for it in the girls bathroom...




This darling hand painted folk art lampshade was in the market for almost a year before I brought it to my bedroom...




I had this scale at shows all summer long until I found a resting place for it in my dining room buffet...




Some treasures are finding themselves just "resting" for a while, some remain longer... Who knows... My treasures may be yours one day! I guess we are the ultimate recyclers!!

Monticello Fall Show

 The Fall garden show at Monticello never disappoints... The uber-talented vendors have, once again, created an amazing collection of displays, with the yummiest of vintage goodness! The show starts today and it runs for nearly a month. Don't miss it! If you are too far away, I leave you with some eye candy....

Camas Vintage Street Faire

Last weekend I set up for my last show of the summer in Camas, WA. The Camas Vintage Street Faire is on its third year and is such a pleasant venue!! The street setting is gorgeous and the weather was beautiful! I met some lovely people and revisited with old friends... And came home with a lighter load... A perfect day!!





Here are some pictures from other lovely booths...




















My girls Laurie and Debbie, from Worthy Goods, and Natalie, from Sparrow. I love them so much!
