French Wine Crate, French Books, Ephemera and New Arrivals!

Where do I begin

to show you our latest arrivals?

 

Usually I start with my most

favorite item...and that is

this awesome French wine crate:

 

Love!

Really forcing myself

not to decorate my office with it!

 

 

This lovely crown

brooch is already gone!

SOLD, just like that.

 

Still really like it though....

they are hard to come by.

 

 

This Jaeger & Co plate

was actually from

my Grandparent's collection.

They had run their own antiques

and books store in Florida.

 

Part of me really enjoys the

fact I have the "antique bug"

and have kept their passion

for vintage going.

 

 

Two styles of

vintage hangers

for a nursery or

child's room.

 

So cute!

 

There is something about

this Indian doll that is

very appealing to me.

And well, she is wearing

pink... my favorite color!

 

A lovely marcasite and

aurora borealis rhinestone

brooch. This was a purchase

from my Mother in Law.

She is like one of my

"Pickers" so to speak!

 

I don't even think she

mind if I wrote that!

(Let's hope! Tee hee! Hi Mom!)

 

Any vintage book with

a very cool illustration

on the cover like 

 Mary here, has my eye

immediately!

 

 

This pink "pearl" set would

look stunning with a denim shirt,

blouse, sweater or suit!

 

Maybe no one will buy it!

Because I like it.

 

Now when was the last

time you saw a seahorse

with "pearl" bubbles?

 

Me neither!

 

 

Imagine this silver plated

compote piled high

with ornaments, candy,

cookies, or even brooches!

Soaps in the bathroom!

Bangles and beads...

 

You name it...

I even like the idea of

using it to hold

your daily makeup items...

 

 

Also from my Mother in Law,

a beautiful bone china

tea and dessert set.

 

She says the flowers

are snap dragons.

 

I wouldn't even know

what a snap dragon was!

 

This is why I have my

MIL to help me.

 

I went to school for radio

and TV. I can edit and produce

a video but succeed in a garden?

Forget it!

 

 

 

And another favorite of

mine this week is this

Paris "Guide Bleu"

travel book.

 

It comes with the original

owners METRO guide / map

with the Eiffel tower on the

front ....and her ticket!

 

Cool!

 

Go ahead, check out

the rest, here!
