Argghh. Me Treasure.

Treasure Hunting. Again.


Heres the happiness..
Dont even know what to craft with these yet, but they were 10 cents. seriously?!
This little planter stole my heart, she just looks so sweet.

little owl creamer *eekkks*

perfect picnic basket I snagged up, an addition to my collection I've been longing for, $4.
I almost passed out, this pyrex mixing bowl is flawless. no scratches and you can tell its never been sent through the dishwasher, the color is still so vivid.
Mini pyrex bowl, I dont see the mushroom print too often so I had to.


If you saw my sneak peek this morning, please please visit Beth's blog, to see some more of the shoot. I swear this girl is brilliant.

Today the wind and sun were in harmony to create a perfect day, the kids and I laid on the lawn out by the playground until lunch, and it was one of those moments when I thought uh, I love being a teacher.

Until tomorrow,

Quick find.

I was looking for something in my Nana's basement the other day and this little find made my day.

Its a vintage tupperware caddy, mustard yellow handle and base, I couldn't just leave it.
I brought it upstairs and asked her why she had it and she just simply said ,"I put it away cause I figured you'd need tupperware someday", I smiled. Isn't she just the cutest?

With the lids it has, its perfect for storing any of my little craft goodies. ekek:)


Worked an incredibly long day. But I cant complain, the kids were amazing, and the pups were home waiting for me. I rode my bike and walked the dogs along with me. I went from having a dog someday being a want, to an absolute need. I am in love.

Be sure to be finding the brighter side,

We're not the same, we're different.

X marks the spot.

Last time I was in Jersey, A treasure chest had arrived at Greg's house for me from his Aunt in Nevada (whom I've never met).
First off, I was elated that she A. knew who I was and B. felt as though she knew me enough to send a package for me. Well let me tell you, she so scored.
I couldn't barely contain my "eeks" as I carefully began to scavenge through the box. There was so much in there, so much vintage, so many stories, I will be photographing it for quite some time. But, I did want to share with you a little of what I got.

You don't even know. She also included articles from where some of the things actually came from so I could see time period, purpose, and story. It was amazing. Thank you Aunt Betsy:)

Got alot of crafting done after work today. The house I'm staying at has a sun room, the most perfectly content place to craft. I'm loving it.

The pups are laying by my feet while I sit here and blog. Sigh, so ready for a dog of my own.

Until tomorrow,
j

Believe in me, like I believe in you.

So sorry for my lack of posting.

I didn't see my boyfriend for two weeks so we were playing catch up and two new furry friends are taking up my life..
I'm dog sitting for the next week and a half so these are the new loves of my life.
But- since I'm staying at the house I'll have tons of time to craft and blog. I plan on playing some serious catch up.

Since I'm about ready to call it a night heres a quickie,
Last time we went home to see Greg's parents in New Jersey they had given me a few vintage tins filled with craft goodies, one included these little dears.


I'm thinking they would look adorable on top of cupcakes, si?


More treasures to come.
Sweet sleeps,
