you should see bell at it, really. how d'you like her army of religious figurines? she finds them in thrift shops and will use them in art projects for the new store (to be opened this summer). i'm dying to find out what all she will be up to... in the meantime, we sometimes thrift together, other times we thrift apart. we haven't challenged one another yet on behalf of portraying treasury, but i've kept my eyes closely on her moves. last time she was 'round, was she eying mr. deer?
send in the night owl, do.
and swear by the eyeless frogs.
seriously! on my return, it was son who told me those frogs wouldn't be seeing much of the world no more... i did not see it coming, for i didn't have my glasses on. sophie's attic treasures.
Reminds me of making my holy communion...now those are some pics of little me that won't ever see the light of day!
Ingrid, you are so sweet and kind (and funny) I love reading your posts and comments.
Your thrifting adventures always yield a most wondrous variety of things ... I look forward to hearing what becomes of that religious collection.
poor wee froglets - perhaps we could line up all the religious statues and pray for them?! Might there be a miracle? Totally loving the numbered serviette rings - great if you have a bad memory for names - each dinner guest could simply be allocated a number! Nice to thrift with a pal isn't it?
Love the religious figures and are you going to post a picture of mr. deer in his new home. I love the silhouette.
you know, my hometown is Hamburg, I'm living here!
I am laughing at the comment about giving your guests numbers in lieu of names. That would make you oh so popular.
Love the stitched silhouette piece! It is oh so lovely!
Lot's of lovely finds with my favourite being the numbered napkin rings.
Thrifting adventures are the best! You make me long for a colourful fleamarket!
Gotta love a lava vase!
Amazing finds, the owl, the tapestry, I LOVE IT ALL!!! But that little frog thing-so cute, love my frogs. You truly have skills!
