Vintage and Sweet


Thrift and antique shop finds ~
so sweet and inexpensive ...



They make me feel like buying a farmhouse!

I am joining

Bentley ~ would you like to live on a farm?
You would ~ but a farm with no chickens!
We'll have to discuss that later.

Love,
Susan and Bentley

    Great finds! Between you and Acorn Hollow I don't know who found the best stuff today! I agree with Bentley, a farm would be great!

    Seems everyone but me find neat things on thrift outings. Guess I do not know what to look for.

    I'd love to live in a farmhouse, too. With a huge covered porch. I missed you! And Bentley! He's looking so adorable as always.

    That clock reminds me of the one that sat by my bedside and woke me for school five times a week for YEARS. I guess that means I'm vintage too! Well, at least I'm not antique!!

    How pretty! Can you find a farmhouse for me and my pet brood while you're at it? And I'll take chickens with mine please. Let's see how that would go over with my gang!

    Vintage, sweet, and inexpensive - the perfect combination, Susan! Your treasures would, indeed, look great in a farmhouse.

    I'm excited to have you linking to the party. Hope to see you each week.

    Have a terrific weekend!

    I say do it! I have never been so happy as living on my little farm. Right now I have my chicken (16) and I am anxiously awaiting the birth of my dairy goats. My garden was small last year but this year I am adding to it as well. I promise you will never look back! :)

    I love this. It reminds me of the pantry I have in my vintage kitchen at my summer camp, wandawega. Seems like we have similar interests.
