What have ya been doing over the summer ~~ Part 2

Hello once again Prim Friends!

Today's post is about ~

One of my favorite summer junkin' shops and finding treasures!

I have to go to this shop at least once during the summer.

For some of you that have followed me for awhile ~ you'll recognize this shop ~ I did a post on it when my friend Vera took me there  ~ The post was called whats behind the yellow door!

Well lets see whats in store behind that yellow door shall we?

I collect oil cans ~ but these were a little pricey for my blood!

I love how they put succulents into vintage finds ~ such a cheap and wonderful idea to beautify your garden!

Need some vintage silverware???

I fell in Love with this coffee grinder ~ my niece wanted it too ~ O.K. I'll keep looking!

Another one of my favorites ~ vintage books & glasses

Love this display!

Wonderful collection for the man in your life or decor for your cabin...

Another of my favorites ~ vintage toys

Aren't these the sweetest???  Their yours for $95.00

My daughter would Love everything in this display ~ she collects vintage hand mirrors

(she's a hairdresser of course!)

I just loved these chairs ~ I picture them around a campfire ~ who doesn't sing around a campfire???

What is it about shoe forms???  They always catch my eye ~ I'm more partial to the wooden ones though.

Wasn't that fun???

Nothing like a fun day of treasure hunting!!!

Here's the treasures I just had to buy!!!

I just had to get some of those succulents ~ isn't that little teacup cute???

Did ya see anything ya liked???

I think I did pretty good for a day!

Speaking of treasure hunting ~ I'm so excited ~ and can't wait to go!!!

Tomorrow morning we're heading to ~

Indiana!!!

My niece Niki ~ My daughter Amanda ~ Sister in-law Gwynn and I are going to the Antique Market there on Sat. then on Sunday we're going to St. Joseph in MI to Antiques on the Bluff.

It's going to be a fun filled weekend ~ just us girls!!!

I hope I find some wonderful prim treasures!!!

Don't worry I'll let ya know!!!

Until Next Time

What have ya been doing over the summer? ~~ Part 1

Hello Friends!

I must say I haven't really posted anything over the summer ~ I can't believe how fast time flies!!!

I been kinda busy as most of you are too.

I've been wanting to post but just can't seem to find the time.

I've been working more at the restaurant and just can't seem to fit everything in.

So because I'm so far behind I figured I'd break this into parts so as not to overwhelm you.

So over the next couple of posts I'll be sharing with you what I've been up to and hopefully I'll catch up with myself.  smile...

Here it goes ~ 

Flowers and such ~

I've been playing with flowers and trying to beautify my deck ~

I found the chair for $2.00 at a rummage sale!

Simplify

I've been adding some perennials to the flower bed and trying to keep up with the weeds!

I got this Beauty from my daughter ~ Amanda

So peaceful ~

Love inpatient's!

My hydrangeas have been blooming up a storm!

I love how the petals of balloon flowers form a star before they open ~

 lovely ~

Love to add some garden art!

Cone flowers ~ one of my favorites!

Watching the bees ~

and getting stung by them ~ poor Chewey :(

Been building a garden shed ~

It's almost done!

It has been hot and humid ~

Then comes the storms ~

Today however we had a beautiful day ~ fall is starting to peek around the corner.

Made some special order signs for a dear friend ~

This one is my favorite!

Took a punch needle class at Primitive Gatherings.

Now if only I could find the time to make more!

And we've been eating a lot of strawberries ~ YUMMMMM!

I'm going to end here.

I hope I didn't bore you!

Until Next Time

Isn't this a fun ride???

This beauty rolled in at the restaurant.

What a wonderful way to repurpose/reuse ~ Truly a work of Art!!!

Love it!!!

Fun!

I would be proud to cruise around in this Beauty!

Did you notice the sun visors???  

Yep old license plates!

I'm so glad they stopped in ~ I really enjoyed looking at this fun filled ride!
