SOLD!!!!!!

This absolutely shabby & chic hutch is going to a new home! Sob! I really hoped it would find its way back home to me but...Recycle Reuse RELOVE is what it's all about!

....these vintage pretties were in a box of linens I got at auction.

The bloomers and slip have wonderful details and lace inserts.

I love that items so utilitarian in basic cotton also had such pretty lace inserts.

How cute is this?! This baby undershirt is a lovely cozy knit. It is tiny, I forgot babies could be that small. Guess this was for a Winter newborn. I brought two that were very similar into the shop and they sold right away...I wonder if someone's vintage doll or bear has a warm shirt to wear?

I went to an annual new year auction today. It's always a fun one, packed with good stuff!
I got quite a few items, some furniture as well as smalls, & a big boxlot of awesome linens & antique clothing.
Of course I bid on several things that I wanted but didn't get
And I am kicking myself for not bidding on at least one hutch. They went for next to nothing but  getting items that size home & to the shop make me hesitate. (dumb!)

I did get some treasures. Here's a pic of a few. The small doll/child chair is adorable, I love the floral cross stich/needlework framed piece. $45

The scale is a nice shabby blue color. **SOLD***

And that old kerosene bottle is encased in wire, very unusual. The vanity has a nice look, good bones, & will look wonderful painted creamy white!
And all are quite dusty! Adds charm!

4 drawer sewing chest, one drawer pushes inward to store sewing supplies.

Pretty in Pink Mirror

Look at all the adorable lil cherubs circling around this mirror.
Soooo shabby!

Look at this awesome aqua vintage toy stove! This is not your typical Easy Bake Oven.
It has two oven doors, burners, knobs, a clock & guess what else...it's electric!
Yep, scary huh, but back in the day children were allowed to live life on the edge I guess. (I did not have the courage to actually plug it in)

You can own this treasure today for $29. For sale at JUST THE THING! in downtown Dover NH

This tree done by Edgewood Manor in Portsmouth NH was just beautiful.

There were several lovely framed hand photos throughout the branches.
