Plum thrilled!

Yesterday I took an inspiring trip to my favorite antique store. I found some amazing treasures.....lots of old jewelry, vintage buttons, antique calling cards, lace & die cuts. After spending an hour digging through things in ever corner of the shop, I somehow misplaced my sunglasses. I figured they would show up sometime, and they did - the store owner called my office this morning.
So, I just had to go back there. And, believe it or not, I made out even better today! I love the little Victorian box with the glass lid, the old plum colored glove box, the lace and plum colored gloves. As I was paying for my merchandise, the owner commented on how I must be in a "plum" mood today - and then she pulls out her lunch to show me......it was a plum, of course!

I love the treasures you found at the antique store, Nancy. Its so much fun to dig around the shops but even better when you find so many wonderful things. And Plums--we're always in a Plum mood here. That's my maiden name!

Congrats to your hubby, too, for his holes in one!

Hugs-
Deb
