we're still seeing mounds of SNOW that have been plowed up, along with more cold temps...  It's been a LONG WINTER ~ TIME FOR IT TO GO!!!  I'm soooo ready for a lightweight Spring Jacket!!!

The sound of draining water into the sewers - while I'm taking my walks, More SunShine Days, Warmer Temps, Singing Birds, Nest Building, along with signs of faith & hope as little pops of budding greenery start to appear...

SiMPLE Vignettes for Early January...

~*  WhiLe-We-Wait  *~

 Simple Vignettes for "Early January"

Now that the Christmas HoLiDay Vignettes are down, I like to keep all my display areas pretty sparse/bare in January.  I can better envision "what's to come" - with less clutter.  In the meantime, I look for inspiration in all sorts of places ~ nature, social media, popping in small businesses/vintage stores.   I wonder what's going to make my *heart sing* - THIS YEAR???  I enjoy culling-out items from my personal "SHaBBy STaSh" too, allowing me to make room for new vintage finds in this new year.

This Year's Seasonal Vignette in our home, was inspired by my LoVe for ChiPPy-WhiTe Architectural SaLvaGe Pieces.  Re-Purposed Tree Base, Pine Tree Shutters, & Tin/Metal Header...  Some of my top favorites in my personal ChiPPy-SHaBBy STaSh!!! 

ALL these pieces tell a Story

 It's that time of YEAR!!!

Collecting ViNtaGe Halloween Items from the 1950's-60's, has been such a joy for me.  The Graphics are AmaZiNg!!!  Love the Old Candy Boxes!  Sooo much more interesting than the now plastic candy bags of today - in 2024!  Gurley Brand Wax Candle figures & Fanny Farmer are my favorite!*!*!  I'm always drawn to vintage HALLOWEEN WITCH items as well...

It's a Wrap for the *2024* Selling Season

at the ELKORN FLEA in Wisconsin,

 held at the Walworth County Fairgrounds.

 I was running behind during set-up,  ~ Then BUSY checking out customers, - so needless to say, I hardly had time to take the pics I usually do...  Quite a few SHaBBies from my personal stash - SOLD, but sad to say - Again - so few pics!!!  They did go to very good homes!!!

This Antique Barrel pictured above was a favorite!!!

Such a nice mother/daughter Purchase!!!  She'll be switching it out come the Holiday Season, as a Christmas Tree Base

 

HeLLoooo October

starting-out with a HaLLoWeeN ViBe!!!
