Some of my finds

These are from over a month ago...

First, the most adorable planter ever. I love the owl and the fact that it all white, so even though it is slightly kitchy, it is completely clean and modern in style. I call him hoot. (I have a tendency to give almost all inanimate objects moods, emotions and some are lucky to get a name also.) He was $7.

Hoot resides on a 3 foot turned piece of wood - Michael calls it my table leg - which was found a few years ago at the "Worlds Longest Yard Sale" - check it out - it is the first weekend in August every year.

That same day I also found these 70's prints by K. Chin that I loved from the moment I saw them. I bought them and hid them in my car with the hopes of a nursery to hang them in soon. It happened faster than I thought - and I can't wait to find the perfect frames. They are all 12" X 9" so I might have to have them made... none the less at $5 a piece - I can splurge on some frames.

Then, last night I went one of my VERY favorite thrift stores. It was right around the corner from our first apartment. Most of the early decorations, dishes and many outfits came from there. I was feeling nostalgic and not feeling sick - so I made the trip over there before I went home last night. I found a gem...

It is in great condition. The vinyl has a tiny tear in the seat and another small one on the back. I am playing around with the idea of recovering it in some new vinyl. You can't see it in the picture, because it was soaking - but it even had the original strap from the seat to the tray. It was $9.99. Baby won't need it for over a year - but I couldn't pass it up.
