So, if ya know me you're aware of my love for junkin' and antiquin' and all things treasure oriented!! I've recently found several places that I LOOOOVE to shop and am quickly earning the frequent visitor award (or at least getting mine and Dax's pic on their FB page=)!
Here are some of the things I've purchased in the last month +/- or so. Everything in the house is currently in
re-do/re-hang mode thanks to a lovely fresh coat of paint on walls, ceilings and trim! Hooray!
 |
| My distressed captains chair from Cottage Heaven in Siloam Springs. (this was a treasure found on the way back from the first dog training show) |
 |
| My flower pot for my peppermint plant! And I've been searching for a scale for a while. But they are generally WAY to proud of them - and the cooler they are the more $$ they are. This one was cute and it has red and yellow which fits with my colors and it was also a good price! I think it's from the late 1940s. Score! |
 |
My $10 RED chair from True Treasures!! You MUST go to that store if you've never been!! I have a HUGE tiny love of old chairs! They just yell softly to me....Come over! Sit down, listen to this story from the ol' timers that I have to tell! |
 |
| I skimmed this before purchasing to see if it had "fruffy" food or if it was really useful. It's great! However, I do have a bit of an admitted cookbook fetish but I still think it's pretty nifty! It was $8 at TT (True Treasures). |

| Still more TT fabulous finds!! |

And here's a few of my new favorites! My colorful platter. I'm phasing out my current dishes and replacing them with a variety of white dishes, plates, saucers, etc. However, I am keeping an eye out for fun serving dishes, coffee cups, etc that are pops of color! You can't see them just super well, but I also found three croc-style (I think they're old-timey shaving cups) containers that I'm using in the boys bathroom. I found the cool wire basket on a trip to Cen AR. It was $2!! Oh yeah! And that nifty Quaker can is also a new fantastic storage/decor option!
In addition to the above options, I also have quiet the lovely collection of frames that I'm repainting and planning to use to hang some of my new favorite candid photos! =)
I'm having a superb time growing my collection! |
