Above is my little load of treasures. I have an old tinted photo of my grandfather which ought to fit perfectly in the green and gold frame with curved glass front. Son number three will love the VW emblem. the two old tin cooking molds are about four inches long and the shaving brush is supposedly Shaker. I just like old shaving brushes. The vintage Christmas box still has cards in it.I always pick up the old Audels books. I really like the old technical drawings inside and my guys enjoy reading them too. As an added bonus, they are small.
This glass slide makes me want to head straight to the cottage!
This poor old Wedgwood egg vase has certainly seen better days and needs a good cleaning however it still retains much of its original charm.
This treasure was found at Goodwill on the way home. It is painted on silk. the fellow behind me in line thought it might have been done by a local artist, long ago. The frame is very delicate and has taken a beating. Hanging in my dining room it looks as though it has always been there. Perfect!
Amongst my goodies, I found an old Penny Rug! I have always wanted one for our long harvest table and now we have one! I love the primitive form and feel of the wool fabric it is made with.
Happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canadian bloggers. Enjoy the long weekend. And to you Stateside, enjoy your upcoming Forth of July festivities.
