My Kind of Birthday Shopping!!

Steve took me birthday shopping!! MY kind of birthday shopping....at a garage sale!! So I wanted to share the goodies I got! ;-)
This is the back of the Victorian cocoa pot. Doesn't the image remind you of Jane Austin?


I love the little cups...perfect for votive candles....and cocoa when Lindy gets older! ;-)
All of this was 50 cents, by the way!!!

Another 'motto' to add to my collection..and this beautiful purse too!

A close up of the purse..so delicate!

I love this picture! Anything with paths or ponds in it I gravitate to. I don't think my photography skills do it justice, but the colors are so soft and serene..

And my favorite! It's made out of metal...and goes perfect in our dining room!
So that's the bounty my sweet husband bought for me for my birthday! My birthday isn't till next week, so it's fun to spread it out! ;-)
Stay tuned on Monday...I will have a Giveaway in celebrating my birthday with you! Details to follow!!
Have a lovely and Blessed Easter!!

    You have such a great eye to find such pretty things at a garage sale. Love all the little tea cups and plates, very pretty.
    You must have a really sweet husband!

    Have a great week!
