road trip treasures...

Good Morning!
Sit back, relax and take a break from holiday prepping and peek at my road trip treasures...



I have been drawn to vintage portraits lately.  I could not pass by this little one ~ love the bow in her hair and just look at her eyes...



I am saving all these treasures for our Vintage Holiday Open House...




This vintage Bingo game is wonderful...



Chippy green shutter that was cut in half and chippy old farmhouse stool...


Love the color of these boots...



I thought this little carrier was so cute.  Perfect to fit the glass jars that I already filled with some holiday sparkle...

Not sure if I can part with the glass door knobs!


I picked up a few treasures for myself that I will show you when I start sharing my holiday nest next week!

I am going to take a break from posting through the weekend.
I want to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!
I have so much to be thankful for this year, starting with my mended heart to seeing other broken hearts around me mend as well.
I am also thankful for all my wonderful blog friends ~ you add so much to my life!
See you next week!

    Oh my goodness, you found the most awesome treasures! I love the Bingo game, the picture of the girl (she's a beauty, yes the eyes, the bow!!!), love the wooden carrier with your jars filled with Christmas beauty. You did really good!

    Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, we're preparing for 43 members of husband's family for lunch - fortunately, they bring the food, we provide turkey and drinks!

    Hugs,
    Mary

    God bless you and your family this Thanksgiving Holiday! I am glad you are mending hearts there.

    Love your old treasures you found. That little girl looks SO much like our little Lulu- it's the eyes, I think! xo Diana

    Sandi what cool treasures you've found! I love the springs, and the wonderful carry. It looks like perhaps someone married a shoe shine kit with a pretty spindle from a bed. So cool!

    What beautiful goodies you found Sandi! I especially love the vintage Bingo game. Last Christmas we played Bingo with the boys for prizes, as old as they are now they had a blast playing!

    cool treasures! I love the portrait, look at that face, and where is she now? I love that...
    I didn't know your heart was mending, i must have missed that, but i'm so glad it is... we all do our blog posts and have fun with that, and at the same time, what we don't show is that alot of us struggle with some pretty intense stuff. My bloggy friends have been amazing support, and it sounds like yours have too...

    hugs

    It sounds like you've been having great fun shopping lately, Sandi. I'm really looking forward to visting WCS on 12/4 with Michelle. Will you be working that day?
    I love your finds here, and can't wait to see more of your nest, too.
    I'm so grateful to have found this friendship with you this year.
    Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family!

    Hi Sandi
    Love everything you found, looks like you had a fun time. I haven't shopped in forever, too focused on getting rid of stuff... I think I have become boring. ha
    Wishing you a very blessed Thanksgiving

    Now these are some amazing finds. I love the old photograph. She is just al doll. I don't know if I could part with the class door knobs either. That would be a little hard for me. In fact, I think I will start looking for some now. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
