White Wednesday, a Sneaky Peek

...of my new "big girl booth" items!

I haven't had a chance to actually get in there yet,

but I'm hoping to be in by the middle of March.

So for White Wednesday I thought

I would take you to the garage and give you

some peeks at just a few of the things

 that will be going.

She's not for sale,

 but will display some of my jewelry pieces

Have I told you how much I love white wicker?

(I have several pieces there already)

small cabinets

upside down coffee table

and random rusty metal

(it will be right side up at the store!)

Gorgeous white dresser mirror

that needs a little distressing

And I put together a little impromtu vignette

of some of the smalls that I will be taking

I'm just whetting your appetite

for all things romantic and cottage.

A few pieces of pearly jewels

And to just give you a feel...

for what I will be doing.

It's soon to be Spring...

(yeah!)

with all the Open Houses...

So at the moment,
 I'm thinking gardeny, girly, all things floral,
and little bouquets...
 nestled on a background of White.

Now run on over to Faded Charm
And visit Kathleen,
our hostess with the mostest!

love,

Debra

p.s. Right now because of time constraints I won't be able to do any shipping; hopefully, after I get set up I will be able to list some things for sale.

Vintage Valentine Cards on Silver Sunday

I've been waiting for today for weeks...

Since Joan at Anything Goes Here

announced her Vintage Valentine Party!

I've sneaked in some Valentine photos

 this last week or so,

hope your not tired of all the "love",

 and some of the same photos.

As my kitties like to say;

Valentines, Schmalentines.

I'm also linking with Beth

from Gypsy Fish Journal today

to be a part of her monthly party,

Silver Sunday
(can't miss that!)

So I'm including some of my Vintage Valentines

on a large footed silver tray on my

Dining Room buffet,

where all things "holiday" seem to land.

This is a silver necklace that my sweet mom

 bought me for Valentines Day this year.

Love the initial and the crown on top.

And a silver bud vase with faux roses.

I found this intricate large Valentine

this summer in St. Louis.

It's supposed to be 3-D,

but I wanted to display it in an old

ornate frame I had been saving.

Here are a few of my vintage Valentine postcards.

The cutie boy here reminds me of my nephew Spence.

(tulips from my sweet sister)

My entry way dresser is holding

another smaller 3-D valentine.

And the pink Hull vase was

 a Valentine to myself this year.

                                        

And here is my sideboard again,

with another Valentine and

some altered children's Valentines

 that I have been playing with.

This framed simple Valentine is an

original from my paternal Grandfather

to my Grandmother, from the early 1920's.

He owned a print shop and this is another of his pieces.

to my Grandmother's Birthday Party.

Have a Sweet and Cozy Valentine Weekend,

Hugs and Love,

Debra

p.s. Thank you all for your sweet comments!

I seem to be having a "time management" issue with

preparing for the new booth opening.

Please just know I love you all and that

each and every comment

blesses me.

 

Silver Sunday on the Dresser

A stack of little silver boxes...

on an antique vanity mirror...

A sterling silver pocket mirror as a wedding gift...

And an old mercury glass perfume atomizer...

These are all evidence of my love of silver.

I'm joining Beth today at Gypsy Fish

for her wonderful Silver Sunday Party.

Have a shiny weekend!

Debra
