My August 2016 Found Treasures

My August found treasures are from shopping adventures at a local antique store,
nearby thrift stores and garage sales
 Who could pass this creamer up at .50 cents? Not Me!

Great candle holder to repurpose into a base for nature art!

 Faux mini eggs for nature art & Easter
(again who can pass these up at .50 cents?)

Celluloid Bubble Top 'Pear' buttons, set of 4 for $1.00...score!

Mini animal tins

Mini shape tins

This has been my year for finding awesome bargains on vintage seam binding by the roll!

Gorgeous vintage hat with the sweetest pastel pink flowers.

Pretty vintage lace & trims

Pretty sheer fabric, flocked and embroidered.   

Sweet mini glass dome with gifted vintage child's tin tea saucer.

Belle photobombing...lovely vintage chair.

Have you been treasure hunting lately?

 I did a happy dance when I found these unused rolls of vintage seam binding mixed in with
