Score of the Year!!

Hands down, this has to be my favorite purchase of the year. I couldn't wait for it to arrive....
I love browsing Eiderdowns on Ebay, just to look{and dream} because usually they're way too expensive for me~ but I love looking anyways. Well, the other day I was shocked to see this amazing Eiderdown listed in a Buy-it-now for a price I couldn't believe!!
It was flashing Buy-me-now, Buy-me-now..... so I did :)
I don't make lots of big purchases because when you have four kids there are so many other things you really need. I haven't had my hair done in a Salon in over a year{yikes, I think it's closer to two years} I look more like a billy goat than a woman at this point, so believe me when I say I don't usually spend money on myself.
The most exciting part of buying the Eiderdown wasn't just the Eiderdown, but who I'd actually bought it from~ which I didn't know until I finished checking out. I guess I probably shouldn't say, but she's one of my very Favorite fabric Designers!! How cool is that :)

A Vintage Home....


I love any opportunity to find Vintage goods for my Home. Whether I'm out hunting through Estate Sales, Flea Markets, Thrift Stores OR sitting at my computer looking through my favorite on-line Shops~ I love the search.
These on-line Shops filled with Vintage Goodness make it easy, and are always fun to browse through....
My Three current favorites are:
Decorative Country Living where you'll find a mix of antique, vintage and new items for your home and garden.


This next one, I'm not even sure how I stumbled onto it, but I'm glad I did.
It's called: Louise Loves where you'll find Vintage inspiration to make a house a home. You can also check out her Blog. She has some amazing textiles.

Lastly, Counting Your Blessings, where you'll find unique vintage goods. A few years ago I bought a darling patchwork quilt there. I've always found beautiful fabric, curtains and quilts on their site.

Each shop displays their sold items, giving you an idea of the types of items they carry(and also making you want to kick yourself for missing out on something great that's already sold). Checking back often is always a good idea, so you don't miss out on any newly listed items.

Eiderdown Heaven...

Oh there's nothing better than curling up on the couch wrapped in a comfy Eiderdown. Someday, when I'm an old lady, I hope to have more eiderdowns than I know what to do with. I'm hoping my home looks something like this.
