As I was out & about yesterday, I saw many a store display with **Refreshing Valentine Themes** ~ at the bakery.... antique store... drug store card isle... & candy store... Did I have my camera ~ NO.... Soooooo ~ here's a sneak peek of items in my home & antique store displays from this past weekend...
I love this Chippy, Old, Crusty, Rusty, Mailbox!*!*! What a perfect use for a Valentine Vignette... Can you believe I had this beauty For Sale several times & it got passed up!!! You see these Shabby Mailboxes ALL along the country roads - but none are available when you want one... Besides using this Old Beauty for Valentines ~ I think it would look just FaBuLouS on a post in a garden with trailing rose vines... The ViNtaGe Post Card - seen in the photo should be up on my Ebay Site Soon - I'm sooooo running behind this year on my selling... Lots of effort ~ such little free time!!!
I have a wonderful collection of Vintage Valentine Postcards... Cherubs seem to be a very popular theme...
A hint of ViNtaGe Millinery... Cherub, postcards, & bling...
I saw these darling vintage valentine adornments in an antique mall...
This is a darling "Lefton" Cherub Candy/Trinket Heart Dish... The Lefton company made a lot of "seasonal" adorments... Most of their items still retain a sticker on the bottom with their name and made in "Japan" ...
OMG!*!*! What was I thinking????????????????????? I saw this quite unusual vintage valentine planter on our antique travels this past weekend... The price was a bit high ~ but after all it was perfectly chippy!!! Major regrets ~ did not buy it...

ReplyDeleteI can't believe you didn't buy that darling heart-shaped planter. I know the feeling of getting home with regret about not buying something you've fallen in love with. Oh well, I guess it's balanced out with all the things I HAVE bought that I now regret. :)Amy
How sweet is that planter? Love it!! Come see me at
