Hi all. It's Tuesday already. Happy Groundhog's Day!Is it Groundhog's day or Groundhog day?
We went to the flea market on Sunday, so I thought I would show just a few items I found. A red top hat, now who doesn't need that for Valentine's Day? Fun to decorate for different holidays. A cute little silver candy dish/compote, gotta love it for $2
This really old bird cage. Now did I need a bird cage? No, but I thought it was cool and really old. As you can see the ornate decoration at the bottom. I think I will use it outside somehow this Spring.
The best and my favorite thing was this penmanship book from the 1800's. It has amazing flourishes and beautiful lettering. I'm sure this will come in very handy for my art work.
You all have a wonderful day!
Chat again soon.
Love,
Rosemary

Rosemary, that lettering book -- you could make a lot of nice Ouija boards out of its pages!!!
ReplyDeleteThen maybe you could hold a seance. Let me know if you can get in touch with my willpower -- it died a long time ago...(munching on Hershey's kisses while blog-hoppin' today)...
You always get the most elegant things! Or maybe they seem elegant due to their proximity to YOU!!!
Oh Rosemary....that penmanship book is to die for! It is gorgeous! Fabulous finds you lucky girl!

Great finds Rosemary! I love the book especially!! My penmanship book has that same drawing with the swan and birds, I nearly posted that one this morning but at the last minute, I chose a Peacock instead. Too funny!
