shabby+luxe




Ohhh...I LOVE this picture, isn't it beautiful? Wow.I adore anything old, tattered and worn and it's getting worse as I also

get older, more tattered and worn.
Doesn't that room look like it might be inside of one of these houses in Venice, Italy?
I have my FREE rooms booked

(2 nights) in Venice.

You gotta LOVE FREE !!

I know I will love Venice, even before I get there.

Well, I will love Venice but

my room will look nothing like that of course. Or this...






haha.

Fabulous Flea market finds...






Today the Swap wasn't all that eventful. I found a few things...but nothing totally amazing. Sometimes, that's just the way it is.


I did get these pretty silver forks, and they have a "M" hand engraved on them. Bun, since you are the only other person that looks at my blog, you'll appreciate them. I got two spoons with the same "M"...but they aren't the same pattern.

















More Ballerinas...I just keep finding these things...but they sell pretty well so I grab'em when I see them.




A sweet little silver baby cup with " Freddie " engraved.....




And this made me laugh, so I had to get it too.
(Hopefully it will sell, or the joke's on me)
** Update : Sold right away! LOL **

California

While it seems the rest of the country is buried under snow,

here is what us poor Californians are having to deal with....



Sometimes when you sit in hours of traffic, put up with smog that could choke a horse, the ridiculous high taxes and such...you forget the reasons it is so great to live in California.
Today while the rest of the USA is digging out of the cold white stuff....I will turn my face to the sun and say "thanks for letting me live here".

Dreaming of light and space....

I feel a LOT like this lately............I need more ROOM!

My house, while I do love it....is too small, and dark inside.


I would love to have a light filled BIG space to do all my crafty-Etsy-hording behaviors! These pix make me so happy. I want a space like these. Why can't the God of Credit smile on me and make all the bad stuff fall off my report? LOL

Happy New Year!


Finally, 2010 is here!

2009 was pretty rough for a lot of us...well, MOST of us! LOL



I will be happy to start a New Year, that's for sure!
That reminds me, I have about a glasses worth of Champange left in the fridge....
Whoo-hooo!
