Bounty from the Hunt

Saturdays hunt was quite rewarding. This ole gal was quite the Chinoise collector.

Love the Chinoiserie Chippendale Wall Shelf

Great collection of porcelain.
Mud Men ~ What great little characters.

 Digging the glazed Foo Dogs.

I was swooning over these Butterfly Wing Backs; so lucky to get them. Reveal to come; wait for it!

Gonna' make some magic with this Channel Back Claw Foot Chair.

Clever brass butterfly hardware on this Bachelors Chest. Alas nowhere in the casa so over to the SB booth it will go.



This little lacquer shelf is going in the SB Booth.



The thrill of the hunt is such an adrenaline rush & so rewarding when the spoils are this bountiful!

No Winter ~ Now It's Spring ~ Halla

Oh man it sure is feeling like spring round these parts. This is when the tease starts but what makes it so intoxicating this year is we have only had 3 days of winter; really! So I am convinced winter is over!!!



I was out digging in the earth yesterday & lovn' it. My mind startn' wandern' & wondern' cause that's what is does & was imaging all kinds of unique ways of how to put Mother Nature on display this year.


Here is some inspiration to get you going. Head on out to the junque yards this weekend, let your mind wander & promise you will find some killer ideas. Great stuff this time of year that has been sitting out in the weather getting all crusty & perfect for you to turn into awesome garden goodness.

Gift Fairy

When you're a Picker your Peeps are onto you if they always get a gift from your back stash; for whateva' reason makes them feel less special. I get that & being the kind and compassionate gal that I pretend to be I am, I am always on the hunt for little diddies that will make the select few (those who call me their friend & those forced by bloodlines to have me in their lives) feel really appreciated. Here are a few this will make them feel special suggestions for your Gal Pals.

Opal Stone Soap

Malachite Stone Soap

Little cocktail bags always get the "Oh My" shout out.

Seductive Nail Enamels rock; such a small little token but oh what a splurge.

Nothing says "Lucky you are in my life" like lavender; okay I admit that was corny but it is true......
