Oooh, new (to you) goodies are always fun--look at that big-bag-o-buttons! :-)
And blonde to brunette, wow!! It's very cute. :-)
Heya--do you mind if I add a link to your blog from mine in the sidebar?
Your mums got nice junk!
& from one brunette to another "good job"!
totally do it. grandmothers have the best button collections!
*jealous* of your stash!
Definitely ok for the link! :-D
Love the bunny~
OMGosh, the Queen's Jubilee items are fabulous!!! How cool that your mom saved them!
Can't wait to see what your grandmother's sewing box reveals!
A while back I bought a wicker sewing box that someone had donated to the church rummage sale. I'd put it in my closet (was too busy to look at it right then) and kind of forgot about it!
Reading this reminded me of it -- now I'm going to go check it out more thoroughly. It had belonged to someone's great aunt & looked like it had some vintage things in it. :-)
