I'm doing this little give~away for May 31st. Simple little rules: be a follower and leave a comment on this post by May 30th~~I'll draw for winner on Tuesday, May 31st.
These are all vintage items I think most everyone would enjoy. Thank you for being my blogger buddy and following my weekly thoughts, junk~hunting trips and my home and garden projects. I give with my heart and warm hugs!
2 wooden hangers, pink ivy table topper, vintage metal planter basket (painted white by me!), vintage sugar bowl with matching little plate, and a small cross~stitched pillow cover.
Okay~~please post by Monday (May 30th)~~winner announced on May 31st.
So here's my little pergola update (still not completed due to more rain)~~
This is the "before picture"~~
Inbetween the rain~~painting it white: we haven't added the top cross boards yet~~maybe by next week:
(see that sneaky ladder off to side in the bushes?? Tricky spot to try and paint!)
and added the bricks around the bush~~not done yet with bricks either~~have to finish the left side of flower bed too. Backbreaking~~but, I love it.
And inbetween the rain I started this little project with miniture pots; flowers and vines:
I managed to get one project done!~~~this little wooden stool~~
Added the metal front piece and painted white: sits on front porch (that also needs painted)~~so many projects!
And here's my treasures I found this week! All on the cheap~~you know I love a bargain:
Little wooden structure for 25 cents~~complete with hook and plastic ivy~~lol~~sweet for garden projects:
Set of 4 blue placemats $1.00; and tattered but so sweet tablecloth $2.00:
Found another porcelain hen napkin ring (25 cents):
Half~price day at the local resale shop~~this little cane~divider screen for $1.25:
Green "Curiosity Shop" bread plates all with "clocks"~~$4.00
and two large dinner plates with white/pink roses for $2.00~~
I love this dog~~this is Mr. Zuse~~he's very noble and loving~~and stands in front of my $3.00 table I got from Catholic Charity this week~~
Wow~~are you still with me?? Sorry for the long post! I haven't got to be on the computer and blog all week long~~thanks for being here~~don't forget the give~away! Have an awesome weekend!

ReplyDeleteI'm a follower, your photographs are always so pretty.
I saw your curiosity plates and said, Oh my gosh! (My grandmother has the entire set) I remember eating off of those plates as a kid and getting lost just staring at the "drawings" inside each one! Very cool!!
ReplyDeleteThen.. said Oh my gosh again when I saw your sweet fur baby, Zuse! I just LOVE brindle boxers! We had one a few years ago, Nikki. I miss her terribly. They are sooo loyal and funny :)
Have a great weekend!!
