Blissful Living...my definition

A gorgeous store filled with vintage and home

decor items that would definitely make a person

extremely happy and full of joy.

as their business card says:

A cure for the common old

Am I ever glad that I was pointed to this store while

I was antiquing yesterday in Blissfield, Michigan.

I wish I would have gone across the street and

taken a photo of the full store on the outside.

Maybe next time I will remember.

This beautiful frame is in the window.

(as you can see I am not a good photo taker

through glass. sorry. You can also see my

reflection. I need photography classes! :)

The front window...the pom poms really drew me in.

I have some exactly like these hanging in my booth!

Love is in the air...pretty Valentine

display.

I came home with one of these glittery crown picks.

I also purchased a pillow like this one.

LOVE...this display with the old typewriter. Makes me want mine back, but I haven't a clue

where I would put it .

Don't you just love this saying:

*In our home let love abide

and bless all those who step inside.*

Isn't this old suitcase display neat? I just love how

they mix the old and new together. If I lived closer I think

my wallet would be in trouble. :)

I stepped inside this fabulous store and knew right away

that I wanted to take photos for my blog so I asked

permission and then went to the car and got my camera.

As I was taking picture one of the co-owners was chatting

with me and she suddenly looked at me and said,

"what is your name"...I told her and she said ,"Wayside...

and I blurted out...WAYSIDE TREASURES.

She gave me a big hug and I said,

" and you are???...

She sweetly said, "Oh you don't know

me. I am a follower and I just love your blog"!

How fun is that?? I was blown away...so much so

that I got all tongue tied and said stupid things like, "Had I known I would have seen you today I would

have done my hair"...WHO says that?? I think I got the

blithering idiot award for the day. lol. I am kinda

a foot in mouth person sometimes and that was

one of those times.

So Marian...if you are reading this

I am so sorry! I will try to do better next time.

Loved meeting you and hope to see you again!

You would also have thought I would have gotten

a photo of her and I together , but no...not this gal.

My brain was not functioning correctly. ha!
