saturday morning mash up

 

I have been wanting to blog all week----didn't happen!!!!! so here is the Saturday morning mash up of everything that I wanted to do all week!!!!!

 

Starting with the lovely collection of vintage souvenir state plates that I snagged at a local thrift!

wouldn't they make a lovely display? They are all currently for sale on my etsy shop

www.MimisSuitcase.etsy.com

 

 

 

 

 next up- as promised, a few shots of my new digs! This lovely island was left here-

Its perfect for displaying some of my favorite  collections- my newest love- milk glass chickens

 

 

 

I got that lovely brown tea pot at thrift for a mere $5

resale value-$40 to 60!!!

 

 

so many great place to display- my house was built in the 1920s but the kitchen and bathroom were added on later- with plenty of built in shelving everywhere!

including this super cute shelf above my bathroom closet(below)

 
 

 

 check out the amazing table my dad made from me from old barn wood! most of his creations are more primitive looking than this, but he put a shabby chic spin on it just for me! The metal wine rack was once a milk crate- bought @ my friend Susans' shop- Home Sweet Home for a song-

 

 

 and how about this custom made  valance- made by my dear friend- Carol Cox- check her out on facebook and in Hartville Ohio at One Vintage Lane

I am loving this place and this town- and having so much fun decoratinf and organizing-

pics of the upstairs to follow soon

 

 

  and last but definitely not least my ultimate Friday favorite- the pumpkin spice latte from everyones' first coffee love- STARBUCKS-

and its been around for 10 years this year- I know that I have been enjoying its pumpkin cinnamon goodness for at least 6 of those years!!!

so when I saw this lovely PSL 10 travel mug, I had to have one-

fall isn't fall without you- <3 thanks Starbucks!!!!
