start the car....

I found the most amazing vintage linens at a garage sale...

they were mixed in with other random polyester uglies...
                                                and I spied them from across the room
 I've never found linens like this in my area...
                                                to say I was excited is a major understatement
                                                                              ...and they were incredibly cheap!

 four beautful large pillowcases...

 all with detailed hand embroidery...

 some bright white cotton... others a lovely creamy linen

 five large, perfect tablecloths...

 embroidered cotton lace trim... bright red stitched initials

 beautiful slubby linen waiting for new projects...

 thick & sturdy tea towels...

 I LOVE vintage linens...the raw texture...
                              the washing, ironing, folding and admiring them...
                                                                                            they make me smile

                                                                now if only my initials were AR...

sweater pumpkins...

I had a fun group of ladies over to make sweater pumpkins...

 we had lots of laughs and yummy snacks...

                          

 and emerged with some adorable sweater pumpkins...

hope you are enjoying your pumpkins...thanks for coming!!

finders keepers finders...

all the lost souls were found and went to a good home...

and Trish found the sweater pumpkin, but snuck off before I could get her picture...

thanks for playing girls...it was fun!

what an amazing day...

the autumn vintage market was fabulous...

the 80% chance of rain held off all day, so the weather ended up being perfect

 thank you so much to the wonderful ladies that keep coming back to my sales
         ...and bringing your friends

 thank you for being so patient while waiting in line...
     it was fun for me to listen to everyone chatting in the line-up
                                                                          and hopefully making new friends...

 head over to the salvage facebook page for more pictures...
                                                               taken by my awesome side-kick Tara...

 the shoppe is pretty empty now...
I'll be taking a much needed break for a bit, then getting to work on custom orders

 I will post the Finders Keepers pics tomorrow....
                have a wonderful Thursday!
