First Vignette in January 2022

 Hi Friends,

As you know I did a little thrifting over my Christmas/ New Year break.  Well, now you get to see how I styled some of the treasures in my home.

I found the brown ceramic sugar holder, Aunt Jemma syrup bottle and the Log Cabin syrup tin. I knew they would look great on top of my kitchen cabinets with this brown creamer

I changed it up and added a brown cheese crock and a couple of little white creamers

change it up again and added more bottle brush trees

switched it up again

                             

I just added a couple of amber bottles and a little bit of greenery

I'm so glad you stopped by to see my first vignette of January 2022

Fall has moved onto my Hutch - Decorate with Me -Thrifted Vintage Décor

 Hi Friends,

I had some time today to add a few fall touches to the top of the hutch, by bringing in a diy pumpkins sign, I made last fall.

 Using Waverly Antiquing wax I added a little weather aging to this faux pumpkin and I harvested some poppy seed pods from my garden and painted them.

A thrifted lunch box and oil can was added to the top of the hutch for some rustic charm.

I need to add a rooster here and there. and I have been collecting amber bottles, my collection is increasing.

I love to add bittersweet, sunflower

black/white check homespun

Harvest-  seeds, wheat  

The wheat is new this year I thrifted two large bundles about a month ago so I added a clump to the large clear jug.

My God Bless You and Your Family!

Thrifting Out of Town - My Hunt for Vintage Bottles

Hi Friends,

 This month I was able to get out of town to visit grand kids and had some time to do some thrifting, at three thrift collectible stores.

  I was so excited to find bottles, and more bottles of all sizes. I just could not believe the great deals I found!

The aqua ball jar was $4.60 not bad price I didn't think. The milk bottle was $5.50 which I thought was high because there wasn't a label.

A grab bag for $2.50 of miscellaneous trinkets was a good deal I think, besides I can always use extra Monopoly pieces.

 

The amber bottles were $1.00 and the larger bottle was $3.00 not a bad price either. I was surprised to find this Phillies cigar box in such good condition to add to my other cigar boxes.  Lately my mission when thrifting is hunting for perfume bottles and on this treasure hunt I found quite a few little bottles.

I plan on making a arrangement of cute perfume bottles on my 50's vintage vanity in the guest room.

I was so excited to find some of the tiny bottles that were in a grab bag for $2.50

Thank you for checking in today and seeing the wonderful treasure I found.

Vintage/Farmhouse Fall Mantel

Hi friends,

Today I'm sharing my Fall mantel.  I have added a little vintage, some thrifted items and a few diy projects I crafted last year and some craft project I had time to do this year. 

My focus this Fall was darker oranges and reds and browns so I brought a ceramic pumpkin from Dollar Tree that I painted a color I liked better. Some vintage canning jars a black rooster that is part of my vintage collection.  This year I added two trivets that I thrifted this year, painted with white chalk paint and put a little distress to the metal.  The fall leave garland, 

mums from Dollar Tree a few years ago. The wire pumpkin are thrifted this year, the buffalo pumpkin are a diy last year.

Last year Dollar Tree diy jar sign, a thrifted wire pumpkin, a remade thrifted trivet and vintage black rooster, Dollar Tree fall leaf garland and floral picks

something new to my fall décor is this Thankful sign I purchase  at Walmart I believe. I added to the fall leaf garland a few more strands of fall leaves from Dollar Tree. A messy bow to the top of my rustic window, from raffia, fall leave sprigs and a buffalo check ribbon. And a few pip berries here and there.

added a little Spanish moss and a black checked ribbon to a amber jar, another vintage rooster a few bitter sweet sprigs, pheasant feathers.

Thank you for checking in to see what project I'm working on this week.  Until the next creative moment.

My God Bless you and your family,
