Haven't been around for awhile....maybe you know how it goes.... Life can pick you up like a wave and not let go until you've hit the shore. This was my fear in starting a blog, that it would be forgotten.

I feel I have grown by leaps and bounds in my "vintage world". I'm so much more picky in what I will buy and want to save and resell to preserve the item. I can spot a unique item from across the room, sitting behind several other items and know what it is, what time period it is from, etc. I have found however that the thrift stores in my area must have knowledgeable staff working since their prices seem to climb higher and higher and are marked vintage.

I resolve to posting every Saturday after my thrifting adventures to share anything I've learned and of course the goodies I find.

Speaking of awesome vintage, I've included several pictures of items I found this past Saturday morning. An owl bank that screams mid-century~complete with the original stopper! Along with a vintage tin of Cocoa from England (yes I am desperately missing fall!). Last but not least a totally fab pressed glass cocktail shaker from the mid-century. I wonder what parties this shaker has been to.....
