    My goodness, but you were blessed, weren't you? I love the chest of drawers, the chips, the worn paint, the combination of white, wood and turquoise. Beautiful! That market cart is adorable and you will look so chic pulling it along at your next flea market shopping trip.

    I can hardy wait to see how you fluff your porch for Autumn. That's my daughter's name, by the way, Autumn Rose. Have fun with your decorating, Connie :)

    P.S. If you do decide to put knobs on your chest . . . think about little glass knobs, or a mixture of unmatched vintage knobs . . . each different. Just a thought.

    Hi Roxie,
    Thanks for coming by my blog and signing on to follow. I'll click onto your follower gadget in a second...just as soon as I finish this comment.
    I totally love vintage stuff but can't say I gather it anymore...I'm at a stage in my life when I need to give it all away. So I'm pretty much down to the nubs, trying to keep things simple.
    Hugs,
    Becky

    Wow love all your finds! The dresser is wonderful but that wire planter is to die for!! I never seem to find neat stuff like that...maybe because I sleep in and never get to sales before 10 am. Warm hugs, Esther

    Hi Roxie,
    More beautiful finds as usual! You certainly have an eye.
    I adore your Erma Bombeck quote by the way; that definitely resonates with my own life, for sure.
    Have a beautiful and festive autumn!
