Vintage seltzer bottle, old books and a clock

I can't believe that White Wednesday is here again already.
The days just seem to fly by anymore and I am getting
farther and farther behind. ugh.

Scrambling for some white photos I took a few pictures
today of some goodies I recently acquired.
This vintage alarm clock is one of them.
Isn't she a beauty? $3.00 at the lake sales...the
day before they officially started, but a few of the
sales were open early. Lucky me!

I recently purchased some more of Rosemary's
tags over at Ozma of Odds. I just love her style and
anything she makes is gorgeous! This time I purchased
some bell jar tags and I love them!

This is another gorgeous tag by Rosemary.

Several weeks ago I went to an antique store that I had not been to before and found a few neat vintage books and the price was amazing as well. Love the photos on the front.

{sorry the photos aren't better, but the lighting was not good at all today}

Another one of my recent finds. A vintage seltzer bottle for $4.95! Can you believe it? I passed it up the first time, but just couldn't do it the second time I was there. It even has a *S* on it so it was meant to be. :) {Made in Germany as well}

More books I found and another Rosemary tag. Do you see a theme running here?? lol.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my recent finds.
Now stroll on over to Faded Charm and find more
wonderful White Wednesday posts.

PS. I cleaned out my booth on Monday of all days , but
it was the day that hubby could help. Be looking for
some of my things on Etsy soon. I gotta get this stuff
outta here! :)

Blessings~

Hi Sandi... I know what you are feeling... I have found myself somewhat overwhelmed being behind... I am hoping next week will be better and I hav'e been blogging much and miss it... And then the not being about to leave comments on some blogs... You must have decided the booth wasn't worth the time and money you were placing in it? I haven't been able to do anything with my Etsy... My payment method with my debit card was at F and M bank and you may have read they had thousands of debit cards numbers stolen and now I can't use that method and was hoping it would clear up soon or I will have to make those changes also... I have been trying to catch my email changes up with the change in internet services.... Gosh... No wonder I am running behind... Hope all is well and keep in touch...

I've looked for old books with white covers but haven't had much luck , so sometimes I just paint them. Yours are great ! I have sold the ruffled bag, but if you would like to make a special order I can make another for you. The bags are approx. 12 inches wide by 13 inches deep.

Beautiful pics, even if the lighting was less than desired. Better hide that seltzer bottle with the "S" on it, AND hide the pretty vintage books, too. Hmmm, better hide the tags, too. Shoot, better just lock your door and not let me in ~ our taste is sooo much the same!!

Hugs,

Oh, Sandi, these books are fabulous!!! & I love the rose one so much. Lucky you. The tags are perfect with the books.

We are no longer pioneers. The well is restored completely, the enw stove finally arrived. One Memorial Day weekend we won't forget.

I still have that beautiful card you sent me, right where I can see it. Thank you, my precious friend.

Have a beautiful pink week ~
