Collections, Projects & {yay}it's Summertime!!

Finally a cuckoo clock for that open spot...

So, before I end up with more than I need{or have places to hang}I just might be able to give it a rest now...

or so I thought until I spotted this unbelievely cute clock on Etsy....Holy Cow, I've been fighting with myself for days on whether or not to push the Add to cart button :/ This is a project I've been forced into having to complete. I bought this beautiful vintage Eiderdown that arrived in excellent condition~ something you don't always expect to find since most are 70+ years old. So when I heard my daughter yelling "No Bear"! "Oh my gosh....MOM"!! I was pretty sure whatever it was, it wasn't going to be good.
I found my puppy sitting on top of it ripping it apart! He looked something like this, but with a face full of feathers almost saying "Huh....what"?? He's lucky I love him.
It's kinda hard to stay mad at him, he's really funny and has some pretty interesting quirks. This is his favorite way to sleep, we call it dead bug or junk to the sky pose~ it's so not an attractive look, but always makes me laugh when I see him doing it :)
I much more prefer his flat body Superman sleeping position.

One down, three to go! My oldest graduated from High School. Yay!!!
What a great day.


This is definitely my favorite time of year♥

Crazy for Cuckoo Clocks!

I picked up another Cuckoo Clock at the Flea Market{my third}. I have no idea if they work or even how to make them work...I just love having them to look at :)


I can see how you can get carried away and start collecting a house full.
Some interesting Cuckoo Clock History


This is where it ended up. Now I need another mini clock for the empty space.

My latest finds:

5 pounds of vintage buttons:

Vintage gumball charms:

Somebody was really into collecting these cute little charms.

Weathered pink egg slicer

I have a new favorite Shop. I love what themodernmarigold creates with vintage linens.


Seriously cute!
