New Additions to my Home

Hello everyone!

 

I'm finally able to snap pics around my home again, since I got my camera back today.  Yay!  As I mentioned in my last post, I went shopping with my sister and mom the other day.  I found a few goodies. 

 

This lantern caught my eye at Tuesday Morning.  Are you familiar with that store?  If not, you should be!  They have wonderful things at discounted prices. 

 

 

I placed it on my hearth in the family room. 

 

I also found this cute candle snuffer.  I had been wanting one, so this one came home with me.

 

I ordered this union jack pillow from Antique Farmhouse.  It came in and is now jazzing up my black bergere chair in the family room.

 

I went shopping in my basement too!  Yes, I have a whole store down there.  ha!  I brought this bottle up, that I bought plain, but then added a label and black cork to it.

 

My secretary got a touch of Fall by adding this twig wreath to it.  This was in my basement too!

 

 



 



  

Do you buy vintage books?  I know I do.  I love them.  However, I rarely look inside them except to see the copyright date or the language of the book.  But, one book that I had was worth looking at further.  It was an old encyclopedia (I think).  It's in a foreign language, so I can't read it.  I found these old maps in it!  So, out they came and on display they went.  Pretty neat huh?

 

Next time you buy an old book, look through the pages carefully.  You may be surprised to find something interesting in there.

 

 

Well that about wraps up some new additions to my home at the moment.  Hope that all of you are having a good week so far!

 

 

Thanks for stopping by!
