    Highs & Lows – 2017

    We’re about to say farewell to 2017. It’s been an exciting year. I wanted to highlight a few moments in 2017 – business and personal.. family and emotional. Here’s a brief glimpse into my life this year. The Island – High Have I mentioned how sweet my hubby is?? He’s been such a support this year in every aspect of my life – the good, the bad and the ugly nasty! Our island is a huge statement piece in the kitchen. He bought all the materials, designed it (with the help of meeeeee) and built it for my Valentine’s Day gift. We were excited about this home improvement; however, did not…

    New Hearth & Hand Collection – My Picks

    Joanna and Chip Gaines have released new items in the Hearth & Hand line! It was released December 26th – day after Christmas – and it’s a nice way of lifting your Christmas blues!! The collection is beautiful! However, here’s a few things I noticed.. 1 – Our target doesn’t receive the entire collection. (Or it sells out the minute it hits our shelves ?) 2 – Specific items online sell out FAST. There were several items I waited to purchase online and later regretted it because they’ve been sold out since! My advice – If it’s something you love, order it and if you change your mind, return it…

    Santa Mug Collection

    It’s nearly Christmas!! I wanted to chat about one of my favorite collections. My Santa mugs. I inherited a love for vintage pottery Santa mugs from my mother. ? Growing up, my mom had hundreds of these little Santa faced mugs, pitchers, and cookie jars all around our home during the Holidays. Some belonged to her mother (my grandmother). It’s sorta funny how the collection began for me.. many of you know I’m a picker/flipper/vintage dealer (whichever you wanna call it). During my early days , when I ran across a Santa mugduring my picking adventures I had to buy it because I always got the sensation my mom would…

    My Vintage Booth During The Holidays

    The Holidays are in FULL swing! This season is a very interesting time for those of us in the vintage junk business. We honestly NEVER know what the day will hold sales wise. What’s Sold – I will say this, Christmas-y decor has been selling. Honestly, it’s been selling consistently since October. This weekend I put a few vintage blow mold Santas in one of my booths thinking this is only to be festive in the booth because it’s too late to sell Christmas decor. Would you believe they sold that very day! Furniture is also selling pretty well. I think it’s pretty common to ask for furniture for Christmas.…

    Garland Galore

    Happy December!  So I have found a cheap easy way to make your home feel perfectly festive for Christmas! It’s called garland. Timeless, right? A few weeks ago I found fresh garland at Home Depot for $6.88 so I grabbed a couple of rolls to play around with. Let’s just say one thing led to another and I was back the next afternoon grabbing more. What I Did –  I grabbed a hammer and nails and began hanging it here and there. I pretty much hung it from a nail on both sides leaving a swag in the middle and length on the ends. Pretty easy peasy! Where You Can Use It…

    It’s a cold December night and I’m looking forward to a chilly, relaxing weekend! Alright, let’s get to it. Here’s some of my favorite products! Body Oil.. Self Care  I found this wonderful body oil from Target a few weeks ago. I’ve used it a good bit now and absolutely LOVE it! There are several ways you can use it – Pour a little in a warm bath or just lather it in your skin. I use the Jasmine Gardenia scent and it’s quickly become part of my bedtime routine. ? The cooler weather causes my skin to dry out so this oil helps prevent that from happening and it smells amazing!!
