Good Day of Vintage Finds!

Its been awhile since I visited some of my favorite antique & resale shoppes and finding some wonderful items yesterday sure did make up for lost time! While my precious cocker spaniel Baby Maxxie was at the groomer I had 3 hours for a good hunt and it turned out to be a pink, cream and soft green kinda day!
The wicker and wood box came with a handled top and is the prettiest shade of green ~ 2 pink ruffle topped milkglass vases ~ 5 spools of vintage pink ribbon ~ assorted vintage laces ~ spool of heavy green twine ~ framed roses in miniature petitpoint ~ and 4 Limoges teacups and saucers . . .


And thats not all! This next pic shows a wooden shabby white painted carrier (not old), filled with the contents of an old rusty coffee can which was thousands of perfectly clean mother of pearl buttons . . . and probably my best find ever ~ an unopened bag of 48 vintage Made in Japan pink millinery roses attached to hair combs! Oh my!
But guess what the best part of the day was??? Picking up Maxxie and going home :-)
Wishing you a day full of treasures and puppy hugs!
