What's new on the sideboard...

I've been guilty...

yes, guilty ...

of ignoring my sideboard!

I hadn't touched a thing on it since March,

 when I updated it just a "hare"/hair for Easter.

(sorry, couldn't resist the pun)

I like to bring out my floral Mandeville and King Seed Box

this time of year and do it up right.

My sideboard is in my main hall right off the kitchen...

next to the stairway to the lower level.

It's impossible to get a good shot of it 

without hanging like a monkey from a chandelier.

tight space.

just ask my son-in-law who reminds me each time he's here

and unloading suitcases and French Bulldogs.

(just jabbing you a little, Keith)

too bad. 

love my sideboard being here.

my husband knows NOT to complain.

(I better be sweet or there'll be no Coldwater Creek gift card this year for Mother's Day)

And since Mother's Day will be here next month

I added one of my sweet framed greetings from 1939.

and a vintage flower book from 1945 with some seed packets.

McSquirrel is residing in the metal conservatory/lantern.

so...let's see how long this new ivy lasts...

 I love this teensy woven basket...

 just perfect for a little birdie

(everything here except the lantern were flea market finds)

so much better!

I'll be hanging out at these get-togethers:

Monday Marketplace #9

Hello out there!

Hope you had a good weekend. Time for Monday Marketplace, the link party where you can share some of your wonderful Etsy and Online Boutique items that you have for sale.

If you don't get a chance to check out some of these Etsy Shops you're really missing out. There are some talented shop owners out here and tons of great items that don't make it to the list. It's so much fun going thru these links! So, from last week, here are a few that caught my eye:

There are a lot of us pillow addicts out here, 

Here's another one to put on your must have list!

Home Dictionary Pillow from Tracey at RaggyGirl

You're going to want to check out this Etsy Shop, PrimpJunktion, from our friend Michele at Primp. She has some wonderful things, and her photos are magazine worthy.

Vintage Metal File Drawer

I'm in love this wonderful Black Vintage BeJeweled Belt Buckle

from Rhonda at Blue Creek Home

Adorable Vintage Beach Cottage Stool

from Angie at Swede13

Canvas Farmer's Market Tote 

with a yummy Paisley lining from TallGrassDesign

And this Vintage Tool Box Garden Caddy 

from Anne at White Lace Farmhouse

(so many ways to use this great piece!)

I also wanted to mention that I still have quite a few brass numbered tags. I can incorporate them into a group pendant, or I can sell them individually on a silver ball chain as a necklace. These are great to commemorate birth date years or anniversary dates.  Email me if you have questions. Just label the email as "TAG". I DO still have the #99 which isn't shown here.

Examples of pendant necklaces. You can custom design one yourself.

OK, so now's the time to come link up your Etsy Shop and Online Boutiques. This party is for linking items that are for sale only. Please link to the individual item if possible. Share with us up to 3 of your items, and I've left enough room for you to add your blog name too if you'd like. Please be a follower of this blog Common Ground, and grab the button on the sidebar for somewhere on your blog, so that we can let people know where you're selling. Thanks everyone for coming by to share the "good stuff"! And if you don't sell, well then just come to the shopping party! Have fun!

Remember, this link party is up all week, 

so stop back by to see what's been added.

xoxo,
