Shopping at thrift stores is always such a blessing to me. The joy of running around with my SIL, brother and niece is a fun day out for all of us. Truly, you never know what you might find, and here are some Victorian beauties.
The two Victorian pieces may well have been a child's Christening Bonnet and Bib. A gorgeous piece of Victorian Lace (that was snipped from a piece of clothing) is just a small reminder of the beautiful work of years gone bye. A wonderful olde book (Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm), and two adorable salt wells. My day was complete with joy!
Most thrift shoppes are run by hospitals, adoption centers, womens causes as in battered women, and churches. So it's a win win in so many ways. Hope you get out and visit your local thrift shoppes for some interesting treasures.

Well well, Patty. Turns out I was so busy posting on facebook that I never really got to know that you were so crafty, and that we had even more in common! I love your blog/s! I'm so glad you contacted me. I thought you, and others, might get hurt feelings when I closed my facebook.
Anyway, love it here. And the music...oh...so delightful. :))Lisa
