SOME OF MY FAVORITE THINGS

Created By My Colonial Home
I thought I would share some of my little gatherings of things that I just love looking at.
Nothing more than that to post - just thought you might enjoy too.

    Thanks for sharing your favorite things. Saw where you live, looked it up in the atlas, my sister lives in Mukwonago. Have you been to Elkhorn to the Antique flea market there? I'm sure you have, but if you haven't, GO! I've been once and it is wonderful. I couldn't believe all the vendors that they have. ~Ann

    Well, I sure did enjoy that! Lovely prim things you got there! There is just something about prim that is so homey and cozy. I just love it! And your pics convey that feeling so well.

    Hope you have a nice Sunday!
