CaBin Fever Cure - Out & About ShaBBy-SHoPPing...

A Day of Antiquing

 the Backroads of Wisconsin...

This past Saturday, Frog Husband and I bundled-up and ventured out...  We shopped an Antique Show in Janesville, Wisconsin ~ then explored quite a few surrounding towns as we worked our way home...  Many a Shop I had never been in...

The Homes and Buildings in this area had such FaB Architectural Interest...  This was the entrance to an Antique Store in Milton, WI ~ BlackByrd Primitives 

By Days End, I had acquired a nice small SHaBBy-STaSH...

Into the Otherwise Cold Winter Stillness

I just L*O*V*E this Time~Worn ViNtaGe Metal Basket!*!*!

Even tho it's small, it makes a wonderful table-top planter...

The basket area also looks FaB ~ Lined with a Pretty Linen Napkin & Mounded with a FaVoRite *Sweet-Treat*

 No Frills here!*!*!

In J*A*N*U*A*R*Y, ~ "I like to keep it SIMPLE"...

No Moss...   No Clay Pots...  No Newspaper...

Just the plain plastic containers from the GreenHouse... 

Less ~ Is ~ More...
