News on the homefront

So many things are going on here at our house and in our lives.

I've been slowly but certainly adding items up in the shop, including this adorable little metal badge from Captain Tim's Ivory Stamp Club.


We're still awaiting final word from the bank, but things with the house seem to finally be coming together. Everything was a bit more complicated than originally appeared and there was actually more than one bank to deal with. We keep hoping that everything could be resolved before spring break so we could have the time off to work on cleaning the new house and preparing to move in, we've still got a week left - so, fingers crossed.

We're meeting with our floor guy on Tuesday so he can let us know how much it will be to refinish the wood floors and how long it will take. It's hard, but I'm holding off on getting super excited because we all know how things can change at the last minute.

Well, that's about it from us, at least for now. Hopefully soon I'll have happy news to share about the house.

Fun little lady up in the shop!

Another one of the Campus Cuties has made it up into the shop today and will be followed closely behind by some other fun vintage finds!

I quite love the Campus Cuties by Louis Marx myself and have a couple occupying various nooks in the house and have given a few as gifts to friends. You can't beat some vintage tschokie therapy on Monday morning!

Etsy Vintage Discoveries #2

I do not hide my fondness for daisies. Daisies are by far my favorite flower, and they were everywhere at our wedding in August - even the groomsmen had to have them.



So this week's vintage Etsy Discoveries are all about daisies!
