Some girly stuff in my house....
Over the door in my dining room, a gift from an ex friend. I say ex because my ex got custody of them all, most were business related. I do however love this piece, its a nice ceramic piece that says it all around this house.
Part of my collection of wall pockets. I love purple grapes. These wall pockets run along the wall over my phone area in my kitchen.
I found this country shelf down the street from my house. Someone was redecorating and put it all outside to sell. I got an oak dresser for my bf for $100 and this shelf. Its hand painted and she got it at a craft shop for $250. She sold it to me for 50 bucks! On top is my collection of purse banks. These were called pin money banks. Women would save pennies and such in them for a rainy day. Now the banks themselves are quite collectible. I saw them in a magazine once and just had to start searching for them. I have a half dozen now and the collection is probably finished......but you just never know hehehe.
I recently got another one. I found it at the local thrift store for only $4!! Now that was a lucky find.
This is the lamp on the dresser in my bedroom. I fell in love with this lamp and had to have it. . It goes nice with my girly rose bedroom. And when I go past I like to play with the beads.
Hi! Great purse collection. My friend was recently telling me about these pretty banks, but I had never seen one before. Now I see what she's talking about. They're adorable! Patricia :o)
Love the grape wall pockets. Brilliant color. Dropped by to let you know those fab flip flops run a tad small so if you wear any 1/2 size, go up one size. Sea Witch

ReplyDeleteI think your decor is delightful and why are you moving?!?! To be by the sea? To escape from Calif.? To open a shop? Why? Just curious.......
