and the turtle makes a run for it.

yesterday i listed another flower frog from my

personal collection.

people ask me how do i decide to sell something

from my personal collection.

and, you know, there isn't a lot of deciding.

i just walk around the house, look at my collections,

and some of them just say, "it's time to go."

and it is, and they do.

here is the little sweetie of a "turtle" flower frog

in an article about my collection

in a 2001 issue of Romantic Homes Magazine.

if he needs to live at your house, he is available at

anythinggoeshere.etsy.

and he has made his escape.

he is SOLD.

but, i have just listed that green ceramic 

turtle flower frog.

he wants out of here too.

A Instant Collection of Flower Frogs

Like everyone else I am thinking spring.

And adding some fun gardening collections to anythinggoeshere.etsy.

I love how these three flower frogs look stacked and topped with a free

brass "R" stencil.

Look at that cute little ring of flower frogs on top!

SOLD

A Classic Church Rummage Sale

Last Thursday I attended a local church rummage sale that is one of the biggest in the country.

It has a special place in my heart for a second reason in addition to it's size. It was the first church rummage sale I ever attended more than 30 years ago when I moved to the Chicago area.




This year didn't disappoint.

This dome is huge. It is 12 inches in diameter and 18 inches high.

Imagine me getting it out of the church through crowds of people without breaking it.



And a second smaller vintage dome to add to my "It's all better under glass collection."



Lastly, I got this nice group of metal flower frogs.


Like me, do you have special vintage shopping locations that bring back especially fond memories?
