I want to thank you all for your dear comments & congratulations on my 300th friend celebration & I have been secretly setting aside some of my 1st little treasures for my giveaway.
I have 2 little sweeties made by MOI, that can go in a book & save your place...
I have 1 of my very 1st handmade jewelry line pieces made from vintage buttons...
I have 1 darling vintage fabric adornment with the most beautiful vintage button in the center...it can be seen in 1 of these pictures, can you find it?
That's all you get to know for now though...more sneak peeks to come!
Yesterday I brought my new beau with me to the shop. We played & played & giggled with joy & then played a some more.
I must say to you with a tiny bit of shame, I haven't told my hubby about him yet...but how do you explain to the man you married, that you have a new love?
It's not as if I hide him...he's sitting on the couch right here next to me on this lovely Sunday morning. Hubby's running in & out excitedly getting our vintage trailer ready for next weekends 'Vintage Trailer Rally',
but that's a whole other post!
Is that terrible of me?
But, I do LOVE my new beau sooooo!
Just look at the amazing photograph's he takes of my shop 'Lambs & Ivy' & my very favoritest display!
I truly adore every little thing in it & on it & next to it!
OK, hubby just came in & is washing some things at the sink for the trailer...should I tell him now??? I'm scared, let's go for it. Right now. Here I go, wish me luck!
XOXO
I said something like "I have to tell you about something", he's washing dishes.
He said something like "what"?
I said "I bought something, but I really needed it".
He said "what"?
I, with camera in hand said "this new camera that I had to have cuz I'm trying to sell my jewelry on etsy & I needed a better zoom to get some really good pictures".
He said "How much"?
I said with a big smile on my face "I got it on sale at Target & it was only $199.00 & I didn't buy another else like a camera bag or anything, just the camera".
Forgetting until right now that I got a bigger memory card to hold more pictures that was $38.00.
Him, "Where'd you get the money"?
Me, "It was shop money, I had a really good last couple of weeks".
Him, "Just remember, shop money is still OUR money, we don't divide it, it's all OUR money"!
Me, "I bought it with OUR money"!
Him, "OK then, I'm glad you got something you love so much. Maybe we can get some good pictures at the trailer show".
Me, "Oh yeah, this camera is awesome, we can get some GREAT pictures at the trailer show"!
A hug & off he goes outside to continue on his vintage trailer mission.
Isn't life GRAND!!!! :)
XOXO
I understand you new 'friend' as I love my camera also! Glad your hubby was OK about it all...just take some grand photos of the vintage trailer and he will be thrilled. Love your display!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE all the rusty, chippy & aged pieces you have. BEAUTIFUL. You make me want to do my home in tea washed, aged 'things'. I just may. Hugs and love Susie!! Tazzy

ReplyDeleteHi Susie,
ReplyDeleteI love your goodies you posted from your shop...I really love the claw feet as bookends :) so very clever. I hope you have a wonderful week.

I adore all of these goodies--You and I have most definitely have the same taste and style--take for instance--your blog background--I love it, and it looks VERY familiar ;)
ReplyDeletevery nice pictures, I love the vintage ones...
ReplyDeleteI love the old clock case ~ I have the whole clock on my downstairs mantle. It was my mother's and I have the memories of it chiming on the hour (even the wee ones of the morning)!
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures... I just got a new camera about 6mo ago and I LOOOOVE it.. You are going to be so happy with your purchase.. It took me awhile to talk my hubby into it buying it and I am so glad I did! Hope you have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Linda
Sometimes you just have to put it to them in language they understand!!!! So glad you got your new camera & can't wait to see all the wonderful photos to come! We saw Diane & Allen last weekend & had such a blast visiting. I am hoping to join you still for Round Top. No trailer (new or vintage) but, I'll just be thrilled to be with my friends if it works out. HUGS!

Glad you broke the news about your new Beau and it went over well! Oh my goodness, your favorite shop display is my favorite too! Just look at all of the wonderful, sepia toned treasures!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny Susie....can't wait to meet your beau next month.....41 days and counting!
ReplyDeletexoxox
p.s. i love your shop =))) it is beautiful and oh so me!!
What a nice guy! My husband is a very nice guy, too, but a big fretter about money...he frets for all of us ;-) I probably would have driven anyone to debt right now...debt through craft supplies!
ReplyDeleteI can't see your other secrets, though, as hard as I look! Kind of like Where's Waldo for the arty set!
Hugs,Suz
Great pictures with your new Beau and I just had to follow you after reading your darling post!
ReplyDeleteLove how you broke the news to your hubby! He he he...it all went very well!
