While we were in Des Moines for the
Mock Trial regional competition, we hit a few thrift stores and quilt stores. These are just a few things that found their way home with me. =)

Lamb planter |
|
Milk Glass Table set. Notice it comes with a saccharine jar. Remember when saccharine looked like little pills? |
|
Small shaker (salt or pepper) prayer lady.
|
|
Feather pillows. One is vintage.
|
|
A few things from the quilt stores. Love the circle pattern by American Jane. |
|
Vintage pillow cases. Love the bluebird one! |
As for the Mock Trial competition, the kids did very well! I believe this was their first time going to state. They were placed 7th out of 32 and won a very prestigious award called the Judge Anthony Critelli award.
Now it's time to get back to some laundry and a wee bit of sewing. I am making a surprise for a friend. Who that friend is needs to be a secret for now. =)
Wonderful finds...lucky you!!
ReplyDeleteYou found some lovely treasures!! Love the lamb planter, and milk glass set!! Have a wonderful weekend! xo Heather
ReplyDeleteFun stuff!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is so wonderful how things follow us home;-) I had a ton of vintage sheets and pillowcases follow me home. All washed, but now the pressing. Funny how a "ironing" person didn't come home too.
