Thrifting Finds, My Rainy Day Read and a Flea Market for a Good Cause



Don't let the sunshine in this picture fool you....
It has been pouring all day....windy and just plain horrid outside...



Have you heard about this good cause?

Corinne at Designing DNA had this wonderful idea and is hosting an online flea market to be held next weekend, March 20th and 21st. It is to benefit an organization called Samaritan's Purse...which is still working to rebuild homes that were destroyed during Hurricane Katrina and the floods in Atlanta.
It sounds like it will be a fabulous event...lots of fun...click here to find out more about it!



So I finally got to curl up with my copy of Jeanne D'Arc Living and spend an hour drooling over all the gorgeous images...
...Thanks to Ruth at The Beautiful Life and Carole at Maynard Garden!
If you haven't a copy of this wonderful publication you can get it from either of them or Tracey at French Larkspur.
I think that there are extra copies in Danish that may even be on sale....I have been buying this magazine from the start...before they printed the text in English and have enjoyed it just as much with Danish text as it is the beautiful images that are so compelling!



I loved this article on old tins because, well... because I have lots of old tins...
...they seem to have come into their own here!



...and this faded blue dresser...well,
... it makes me weak in the knees!



Moving on to a few thrift store finds this past week...
...lots of vintage lace....



...so sweet, so delicate!



...and this heavy steel candle holder turned... egg stand?



...or maybe I could use it this way...
...just kidding!



...and this pretty blue green transferware dish...



...and this little carrot shaped sack of ivory beads...



...and that's all I have had time to photograph...
...did I mention that it is pouring rain outside...
ALL day long?
...and flooding?
At least it's not snow and this will surely wash the last of the snow away...

We saw the first two beautiful robins this morning...
...dancing around the yard in the rain...

Yes, spring is coming close!
Don't forget to turn your clocks ahead tonight!
