We drove through apple orchards full of white blossoms with the windows down listening for spring peepers and smelling the coming storm on the wind. Small, quaint houses and abandoned barns are passed on our mission to reach a small antique and vintage shop. We arrive to a yard full of junk and curiosities. Metal figurines of flying pigs, stone statues, doors, and even the occasional tub fills the grassy lawn with interest and eccentricity. Inside hosts even more bizarre items from deer's heads with vintage wedding veils on top to a collection of vintage telephones. It's easy to see why it's crowded; every corner holds the potential for a hidden treasure.
What a quaint (That's such a cute word. I tried not to use the word cute in this comment, cause I think I say it too much.. But I just had to!) little shop!
I like the face pillow (?) thing. It looks like it might be a little too hard to be a pillow though.
I don't think there are any vintage shops where I live :(
We totally adore your entire post! The little gold brocade (?) jacket is darling, but the face cushion/pillow is the best. Absolutely the best. Did you have as much fun on the trip as it sounds...? We hope so. BTW, we just fell into your blog and love it. We'll probably be held captive for hours reading previous posts. Thanks for sharing such cool stuff, especially sharing of yourself. :-)
aw thanks for the comment! I read your blog almost everyday hehe! but yes ebay or google urban original i think its uo.com or something similar where you can find them no bidding!
The first pic with your shoes and the silver baubles is ace!!
I replied to your comment on Desirable but thought I'd pop over and say the same thing over here - I don't know how you feel about link trading, but would you consider doing one with me?

I love antique shopping :) And I love the scarf, this may just solve my dilema on how to wear them.
These pictures are lovely.... they have a special thing that I can't describe...

Such cute pictures! I specially love the silver bowls and the old-fashioned traveler set!
Oh great - I love the hat you wear in the 6th picture.
The little yellow jacket is divine, and I'm still very much in love with how you're wearing those socks!
Such great photos, now I want a stack of lovely vintage suit/travel cases in my room!
Is that a pillow with the face on it? Whatever it is, I need/want/pine for it.
Desperately want the hatboxes and the blue hat. Love the pictures, what a fun post!
The yellow jacket, the old luggage, so quaint.
