some thrifty and cute treasures

Happy Sweet Day!
Hope that your weekend was lovely! Thank you all so much for your sweet and kind words on my new items!! You really know how to make my day brighter! I was so blessed by some amazing customers this month in my shoppe!! I am ever so grateful! I truly love my job!
It has been a busy week, and will be busy for the next couple weeks as I am working on some custom orders and getting some other sweet items put into the shoppe. So my apologies if I seem to a little quieter again. ;)
Over the weekend I went to an estate sale, which sometimes I wonder why I go when prices seem to keep getting higher and higher, but then if I didn't go this absolutely darling baby romper would not have come home with me! There really are somethings that just can't be left behind, even if you don't need it! 
These sweet handmade baby sweaters also made their way home with me! I need to find some cute vintage plastic baby hangers to display them all!
 Some pretty doilies, which are always on the top of my list,
 along with vintage linens. I love the design on this tea towel!
 Today at a couple thrift stores I found a Rand McNally Book, The Little Mailman of Bayberry Lane. So cute! Some thank you cards, vintage fabric,...
 a blue rose sheet, and...
vintage wooden hangers! Yay! I have been looking to get some more for my stash to re-purpose for my shoppe, so today was a good day! Have you found some lovely treasures lately? 
Well, I hope to be back later this week to show you my Valentine garland, which I am so late in making and putting up, but there is still the rest of the month to enjoy it, and maybe longer! ;)

Wishing you all a wonderful and crafty week!

  1. Hi Heather, What SWEET finds! I love those baby sweaters and the doilies and the vintage linen tea towel!! Everything you came across...so sweet vintage! I enjoy old hangers myself. I love to vintage shop but haven't been out in a while. Between the bad weather and renovating the cottage, my time has been limited. I NEED to get out!!! or should I say I WANT to get out! Thrifting and Junking is the Best! Blessings~~~love your VINTAGE goodies~~~Roxie

  16. Those wooden hangers were just waiting for you for you to rescue and give gorgeous makeovers. Those baby items are just wonderful. Such beautiful little sweaters. I have an antique baby sweater framed in my bedroom hanging on the wall next to my dresser. I found it after both girls were much too big to wear it, but loved it so. Have a wonderful week creating!

  21. It amazes me that vintage linens and hand embroidered pieces can still be found in thrift shops and flea markets at such reasonable prices at least in my neck of the woods. Great finds!

  23. Hello lovely Heather, sorry if I have been a little absent here. You have been so lucky in your recent finds, wow, I love the gorgeous baby clothes aren't they sweet, and the gorgeous doilies and not to mention that really pretty teatowel. Oh my all the hours of hand stitching that went into that, isn't it beautiful though. I love the fact that it looks like it is actually set on a torchon?? I love all your pretty makes in your recent post and I am also so delighted that you are now on IG. Wishing you a very happy and creative week sweetie and happy valentines xoxo
