Back in July I went antique shopping in an old church building that had been converted to a delightful antique shop, and found some equally delightful things! The building was very cool -- I guess it was the first church building built in the old town we were in, which I loved for the historic factor.
The garden in front was a lovely, old-fashioned, overgrown thing ... roses, daisies, lavender, hens-and-chicks, a garden gnome. I love over-grown gardens that manage to look picturesque rather than messy. I just wish I could figure out the whys-and-wherefores because MY garden is generally of the messy overgrown variety. ;o)
See what I mean? Very cool.
Lots of books!
Look at those rafters!
And the windows ... love.
Here are my treasures:
This lovely quilt rack, which I have definitely been needing. Required a little dusting and a bit of Old English, and now it's perfect!
And this:
A sewing firkin!!! SO cool -- and actually I did not spot it, my mom did. #creditwherecreditisdue
I l.o.v.e this thing!!
Fun, huh? I love those kinds of days when the findings and the locations are perfect, dahling. :o)
