Today’s Vintage Monday features vintage costume jewelry. The pieces that I’m sharing belonged to my grandmother, great-great aunt who raised my grandmother, and my cousin’s grandmother. I don’t know the age of these pieces but would guess they are from the 1930’s through the 1970’s. I’m starting with this pin and clip earring set because…
Back in March I shared two 1943 posters that I had framed for our lake house family room. I had four more posters from the same set framed and I’m sharing them today for Vintage Monday. If you are new here, Vintage Monday is an occasional series where I share vintage things that I’ve inherited…
Welcome to Vintage Monday! Today I’m sharing some of my Vintage Easter Décor. If you missed last week, I shared my dad’s 1942 copy of The Tale of Peter Rabbit. You can see all of my Vintage Monday posts here. Can you believe that Easter is on Sunday? Even though Easter is later in April…
Welcome back to another week of Vintage Monday. I love sharing my vintage items with you. Today I’m sharing my dad’s 1942 The Tale of Peter Rabbit book. Recent Vintage Monday topics include several farmhouse finds and a unique laundry gadget. (So glad those are no longer needed.) You can read all of my Vintage Monday…
I’m back to share more vintage with you. Last week I shared some vintage farmhouse items that my neighbor passed along to me and today I’m sharing another vintage item from the same neighbor’s collection, a laundry agitator. This laundry agitator is from Iowa, like many of the other items that were passed along to…
Our neighbors are in the process of moving and have been kind enough to share some of their no longer needed vintage things with me. I love vintage and am more than happy to give their things a home. What they gave to me is what I’d call farmhouse style. I started Vintage Monday last…
Hello, friends! I have missed blogging and having projects to share with you. I have found my cancer diagnosis to be all consuming and between going to many, many appointments and worrying about my health, I just haven’t had the heart to be creative or to write a blog post. At the beginning of 2017,…
The Christmas décor has been put away and it’s time to decorate for winter. I loved displaying my vintage punch bowl collection along with my vintage Santa boots on my farmhouse hutch for Christmas. After putting these things away, I wanted to use this hutch to display another collection, this time some of my vintage…
Can you believe it is the week before Christmas? I’m off from school for the next two weeks and could not be more excited to spend some time at home. Last weekend Mr. SP and I finally got the outside of our home and our porch decorated for Christmas. We love walking or driving past…
Christmas Greetings! Is your home decorated for Christmas? I have some areas decorated but have yet to get to the outside or porch. I’m hoping that the weather will cooperate on Saturday so that I can get these areas in the Christmas spirit. The day before Thanksgiving I decorated the hutch in my kitchen with…
Good friends are moving into a new house and asked if I would give their daughter’s desk a makeover for her new room. This desk is an old school desk but I don’t know its history. It’s size makes me think that it originally was used in a junior or high school. Haley likes…
Fall officially arrives on Thursday and the change in season is definitely in the air in my area of Virginia. We won’t have fall color for a few more weeks but the tree leaves are looking tired and one can tell that it won’t be long until the leaves change to their brilliant fall colors….
