Treasure!

My good, good friend Leslie and I took a little vacation down to Branson, MO to see the Christmas lights, go to Silver Dollar City and a show and of course, do some junking along the way! Today, I am going to show you Leslie's treasures. Later, I will show you mine and show you the lights in Silver Dollar City and an aerial view too.

Ok, on to the treasures!

A great box from Bear Market in Camdenton, MO. I think it was $19. We decided it would be perfect for under the end table in the living room to hold stuff...

When we saw this table, we were wishing one of us needed a kitchen table; they had a TON for pretty good prices! Most were older so they were well made and had some character!!

A girl has to do some dreaming! Here's a Daisy butter churn that Leslie would love to own. This one was at Sweetheart's just south of that main intersection also in Camdenton, MO (it took us quite some time to get very far from home...but we loved every-single-minute).

She likes green handled kitchen gadgets. Not really a surprise coming from the girl who owns nearly every piece Tupperware has EVER made! (We didn't buy these...just laughed when we saw them.)

Here's all her loot...spread out on a table in our dinky (but cheap thereby perfect) hotel room.

Now, let me show you a little more detail on the loot!!!

Check out those Eastlands baby! Only 5 smackers and they've barely been worn! Meet Leslie's new work shoes. :) And no trip is complete without some vintage Tupperware for the Tupperware Queen. We did see some ketchup and mustard pump containers shaped like the TW salt & pepper shakers. Not only did Leslie not own them, she hadn't even seen them! (Gasp) The hat we thought was a cool color and would be perfect for Saturday morning errands pre-shower (Stacey and Clinton (from What not to Wear) would disagree but this IS the Midwest peeps).

I told you Leslie likes vantage kitchen utensils right? And look at the pregnant Cherished Teddies; She's been looking for that since she got pregnant with Cooper. We forgot she bought the sifter on the left when we found the one on the right. Oh well, they are both cool right?

Look at that squirrel on the nut. And the pink Pyrex... stinking cute!! The green thing underneath is an insulated thing with handles to tote around your crock pot.

Yikes! We had a blast!!!

Card Group

Here's the card from our fall card group. I have a secret obsession with Lovely As A Tree set! Oh my, I do love it so!

Here, we did the stamp off technique to get the different shades of trees.

Leslie and I found a treasure last weekend on our vacation that appears to be Lovely as a Tree's vintage twin sister. As soon as I get my picture software loaded on my new computer, I will show you. Be excited, be very excited!!
