Waiting for the prom...

A frothy pink confection of a dress

sits in my living room...

on my new dress form that I tea dyed to look vintage...

It must have been a prom or wedding dress...not terribly old,

but pretty just the same...

I added a sweet vintage pearl choker (love the scallops!),

one of my newer necklaces

and a delicate ivory fabric flower...

the pink bow and little piece of bling were original...

and I think it all looks so enchanting together.

A huge big bow made out of yards of ivory netting was added to the back...

and it was finished in the middle with a

pink fabric flower (can you tell I love those things!)...

Now all she needs is a date!

A Favorite Statue

Today I thought I'd share with you a few pictures of

My Favorite Statue...

I purchased her from my dear friend Paula

who always has the prettiest things for me.

She is holding a little bird in her arms...

and I love how her dress looks like it is

blowing in the breeze...

She is 28" tall and very heavy.

She came from an old department store here

in Salt Lake City many years ago.

I love the round base too and the pretty

cream and light brown colored finish.

She fits in so nicely in my front room.

She knows she is home...

A few new treasures...

Well I've been as busy as a bee these past few days.

I don't know what has me all inspired, but I'm all for it!

This darling vintage Lefton cherub has just been

added to our Vintage Finds Boutique!

This pretty vintage tissue box has been added as well.

I will be adding new treasures to the web site all week.

I don't have to go shopping for six months, I have

so many things to list!

Keep checking back, you never know what you might find!

Have a lovely afternoon!

A rose by any other name...

So here they sit...all beautiful and pretty...just waiting...

Out of their wrapper, they are a sight to behold,

They were whispering my name as I walked by...

I could not leave them there,

For they were light cream, with a tinge of green

and the most beautiful pink...

Up close they did not even seem real...

And now they grace four glass vases...

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
