Tarnished Silver and Baby Shoes OH MY!!




I had such a wonderful time on Sat. Stacey and I ran up to the town of Silverton. My friend Joy from Antie Joy. was having a sale up at her cute little shop. Here are some goodies that I got while there, some I bought and some she gave me!! Wont these make the best little homes for my birdies!! Then I had to hit the goodwill...I found some wonderful butter dishes and a couple of old enamel plates, an old pincushion and a tracing wheel!!

Those are some great finds! Love the birds in the post below too!! If you haven't been to Orange (Old Towne) before, you will love it during your visit in the Summer. The whole town is filled with antique stores. A lot of the area is changing, but there are still many great places to shop here! :)

There are some nice finds here! My Dad retired from the phone company and I worked there for awhile, too. The glass transformer protectors (I think this is their name) are an item I used to use for candles. In the 70's and 80's, crafty people used to take strips of wood and make circular seats in the wood for the glass to sit upright. I remember dining in many "healthy" restaurants that used these candles.

Hugs, KJ

Great goodie, can't wait to see which little birds will reside where and how they will feather their nests!
