no more second thoughts and sticking to the rule...

So when I was having second thoughts the other day about keeping this silver tray chalkboard...
It's a keeper!

And having Jim remind me of the one thing in, two things out rule, I listed a few extra treasures in my Etsy shop like this lovely trinket tray...
As well as a few sweet vintage books...

Don't forget that I am having a sale in my Etsy shop through the end of the month which I blogged about here.

Today I am visiting the ladies over at Capers of the Vintage Vixens and joining in on their Blogger's Bodega.
Lots of great shopping over there!
(Remember the rule Sandi.)

Have a wonderful day!

  2. Yes, it's a keeper. But the great thing about the shop is if you should decide later to let it go, nothing's lost, right? Enjoy it for awhile and then pass it on when and if you're ready. I think my rule is backwards...two things IN...one thing out. hee hee

  4. Such lovely pretties Sandi! I love those books, but I have to be good at the moment. Self imposed good. HA! I also listed a very few things on Etsy. Takes so much time to get decent pix and actually get it listed. :) I tried that rule out on my hubby when he buys new movies only ONE IN ONE OUT and it did not work! tee hee

  8. Oh gosh, I hope Kyran never adopts the "one thing in, one thing out" rule...I don't know what I would do!!!

    I saw The Silver Buckle book on Etsy and put it in my faves...it's so lovely:) Your chalkboard tray is gorgeous and if you do end up getting tired of it you can always list it at a later time!

  17. Oh Sandi you're a BRAVE junker....I SO could NEVER employ that rule 'cause EVERYTHING I bring home I adore....You should have seen me in Texas in the hotel after shopping all day with everything spread around me on the bed...."Oh this is for me....And this....Oh & this too"....hahahahaha....It's a WONDER I can ever part with anything....!!

    Yes 21....That WAS a good year....I'm more a 26 though I reckon....If you find one of THOSE maybe we could do a swap....**wink**....!!

    I hope you're having an EXTRAORDINARY week Lovey....!

    Cheers from Oz,
    Tamarah :o)
