vintage treasures...

it's always a big thrill when I go thrifting/garage saleing and find vintage treasures...

like this framed photo of a cute little girl with her dolly

 these colorful vintage cotton spools

and these all-leather child's skates (for 50c!!), they're gonna look so cute hanging on my sleigh come winter...

I have more to show you, but I'm saving them for another "themed" post, just as soon as I have sunshine long enough to take a photo!!

what are your favorite vintage finds?

I'm linking up to Thrifty Thursday

A NEW FAVOURITE THING

I just couldn't wait to show you one of my "new" favourite things! I popped into my favourite local thrift store this week and there was this buggy waiting just for me. I wavered for all of two minutes as the price tag was a little high for my junking mindset, then I snapped her up!! I knew I would regret it forever if I didn't bring this beauty home. I have been looking for her forever!

She has been well loved...

and a tad neglected...

I envisage my buggy spilling over with flowers in the summer, but I couldn't do that to her just yet. A shabby quilt and cosy knitted blanket will do just fine.

For now I am happy just to admire her and push her back and forth on her springy wheels, imagining what stories she could tell from her past.

Anyone else have a favourite buggy?

happy days,

Tracey
