The Glitter Gods Were Smiling Down on Me!


I rarely find really cool packs or bottles of old glitter. I have just a handful. I was more than thrilled to find this really cool pack of glitter recently at a thrift store! It was a great bargain and now proudly displayed on a shelf in my den with a pack of vintage children's valentines!

Recent Finds!



Mostly for my etsy shop! Keeping the old paint sample book in the bottom right corner and the package of green glitter too!

What To Put On This Shelf


More "revamping" in the den included changing out a bookcase in front of our side door for a slightly larger one with better visibility. The bottom shelf came together rather quickly and I finally go to put all of my Land of the Lost items together. The top shelf was harder. I put the Pom Pom Jewelry Kit in there and then I had nothing that would fit right next to it! Everything I tried was either too small, too short, horizontal instead of vertical...you get the idea.

And then Junior solved the problem! He's the perfect fit and cute to boot!

Ahhh...Heat


It got cold. We turned the heat on. Junior is happy again. He found the heat vent.

Birthday Candle Collection



Hi! It's me! I am still alive! I am SO super busy with my etsy shop, it's that time of year- lots of holiday items to list and I've been blessed with tons and tons of sales lately! And at the mention of holiday...I must confess, I've already started decorating trees around here! We do so much for Christmas I have to start early! And then there's the dusting....

Anyway, part of the dusting and decorating includes "revamping" collections or displays that need a little spiffing up! I've ALWAYS wanted to display all of my vintage birthday candles together and I had this great little shelf stored away that I knew would be just perfect! Do you have any idea what it took to find a place for this shelf though? I finally found a spot in the kitchen but that led to moving other things to make room! But alas, I worked it in, displayed every one of my candles and loved the end result!

Of course, the next day I found a candle box that was overlooked...
