i found some good stuff yesterday!  i love that sweet bunny needlepoint. i'm going to use the boxes for my craft fair display, and how about the omnigrid ruler for only $3.00!?  i've been needing one of those and what a great deal!  i couldn't get a very good photo of the little bobblehead deer, but so cute!

the vanilla box says it is good for making blanc mange.  that should come in handy!

happy tuesday!

opening day!! (no, not baseball, the flea market!)

sunday was opening day of the flea market at todd farm in rowley, mass. i brought my camera intending to take lots of pictures, but i was waaaaaaaay too busy shopping to think about pictures! there were tons of vendors and tons of shoppers, and it was a gorgeous day. so much fun! here are some of the things i got!

some beautiful bits of vintage fabric and notions!!

i made a bee-line for this tin when i saw it! i love anything plaid, and i love cute tins/boxes. so, the guy said "you can have it for $5, and take all the stuff inside!" i was thrilled and didn't really look at the contents til later when i found...

super adorable vintage christmas ornaments!!!!! made me think of barbara.

i got these two "nature library" books published in 1926 and in excellent condition. not even smelly! they are FULL of beautiful, vibrant color plates:

a very successful day at the flea market! (now where will i put all of this stuff............)

happy easter

nothing says easter like cute creepy purple bunnies!!

i knit these socks many moons ago, before i knew a thing or two about a thing or two, sock knitting-wise...they are a bit tough to get on, but once you do, they're there for good!

have a lovely easter sunday-eat lots of chocolate! i'm planning on it!
