I would like to take the wonderful opportunity this inspiring autumn evening to create a well-passed-due post about my magnificent, stylish, compassionate mother, and feature her beautiful home, which has been decorated tastefully and colorfully for a the amazing season of fall.  

My mother has definitely inspired me to achieve many goals in my life, and for the patience, generosity, intelligence, and perseverance, (list goes on and on) that she has displayed over the last 28 years, (and beyond) I will be eternally grateful!!

Vintage Treasures!!

Good Evening!! Just thought I'd share a couple of interesting Vintage Finds and Treasures that I came across over the last few weekends. Last week, mom and I went to Wheaten Village and this passed Saturday we took a trip to the Mullica Hill Harvest Festival, where they hold sidewalk sales, and have special deals. I've been searching for a vintage cottagy coastal piece with rustic charm to hang on this wall that juts out between our kitchen and family room, and within the 1st 5 minutes, I spotted this beautiful rustic mirror, which I completely fell in love with and positively had to have. Luckily, It was a great price, and as you can clearly see, Cece is also a fan of this awesomely charming unique find!! Here it is on the wall, above Uppercase Living Lettering that has been waiting for it... 

In the photos below, you'll see a vintage spool and adorable felt Candle cover, which were also tremendous deals!! Last but not least, the last couple of interesting items, 1st the vintage wood planes (which were actually a pair), I spotted at a yard sale around the corner from us, and I've never seen these go for as good of a price as I paid : $4 for the pair!! And, the vintage horseshoe, how neat is that??
