I found a few fun things last week and I thought I would share them with you today. Above are the oh so pretty vintage velvet flowers I found at the women's shelter thrift store. Love these and have been looking for some for a while, can't tell you how excited I was when I found this bag full of different colors for 25 cents!
I was finally able to drag my husband along to the flea market on Sat and I found a beautiful round table cloth with a pretty crochet border, a very pretty crochet flower doily, and a Gorgeous vintage candy tin that I plan to use as a jewelry box. Love the design on the top and the colors are THE best thing about it. I found the hand embroidered antique lace panels at a flea market last week during lunch.
Oh so pretty, I've been looking for one of these tins for a while too.
Faded and tattered just the way I like it.
A close up of the hand embroidery on the antique lace panels. So pretty and such tiny stitches.
What would a trip to the flea market be without a few old pictures and I just love the embossed photo holder too.
Found a box of antique razor boxes all piled in a box for $3 each and when I saw this one that says "The Artist" I couldn't resist. Too neat!
And I also found a couple of neat old books with beautiful graphics.
Hope your weekend was full of great finds!
Have a happy day!

Oh my goodness.... what amazing finds! I adore the lace panels and the old tins.
You made a lovely haul! If I'd seen all those things, if I didn't buy them, I'd at least have stopped and admired them. But probably would have loaded them up, too. ;-)

Gorgeous finds!!! I LOVE those vintage velvet flowers. I'm always looking for them too. Sometimes I find a few with a pretty hat still attached to them! Everything is so pretty :)
You have a keen eye for pretty things. I love the handmade doily, so delicate and rare.

Nothing makes me more thrilled than a good find. You did really great shopping, Thespa. I wish I could be with you to hunt the treasures :-)
