Peacock Park Warehouse Sale!

I took these photos quick and not in good lighting because people have been asking me
what I purchased at the

PEACOCK PARK WAREHOUSE SALE

that I went to on Tuesday.

Don't you just love the tote above?

I also found this amazing french style curtain.

this chippy white chair...

these pink crates that will be painted either white or gray...

TWINE and MUSLIN RIBBON...I just kept grabbing it because it was such a
great price.

These JOYEUX NOEL nesting crates that also need some work.

I didn't notice until later that there is an "O" where the "U" should be.
No problem... I can fix them! lol

Lots of glittery leaf and star garland...so cheap!!

I think I showed you most of what I purchased.

They move so much stuff out of there you would not believe it.
People standing by HUGE piles guarding them with their life and some people even
bring u-hauls and large trailers. (Especially store owners for stocking their shelves)

It is SO fun!!

Then today we went to a local college rummage sale and we scored these lights for my
potting shed and a Porter Cable tool for hubby. He was thrilled!! $5 each for these.

I won't tell you the Peacock Park prices because I don't want a bunch of screaming, crying
women on my hands. haha!! Seriously, I am so glad I live within driving distance of this
place. {2 and 1/2 hours or so}

It was definitely a fun day. I met up with my daughter {after she took my 16 year old
 granddaughter to the ER because just as my daughter was supposed to be leaving to meet me,
 Allysha dislocated her knee!! OUCH!! } She has a knee brace on and crutches, but is doing
good now so all is well.

HAPPY AUTUMN EVERYONE!!! What good deals have you gotten lately?
I would love to hear about it!!

Joyeux Noel

I have been playing in my studio and I had fun putting together this little box of treasures.

I started by covering a small box with Joyeux Noel paper.

I added some puffy stars that I always have fun making along with some white jingle bells,
a crown earring and a fabric piece.

I also put in a white gauze flower pin and some tinsel candy canes.

Next I added one of my stickers that I won several months ago...

A piece of fabric that I had rubber stamped with ice skates and snow flakes

A french inspired tag

I knew it wouldn't be complete without some punched snowflakes and doves

This is my favorite piece...I made this tag and added some swarovski crystals where
the "berries" should be. I will say for future reference...glitter and THEN add the crystals..
not the other way around.. :)

At the very bottom of the box are two fabric frenchy tags.

This is the box all wrapped up. Yep, once again Sandi got things upside down. I had to stand
on my head to read the Joyeux Noel on the wrapping paper. ha ha!

The gorgeous paper...

I had fun doing this and after Christmas I might just make another one for a giveaway.

What do you think? Would you be interested? I am always running behind, but hey
you could use it for next year.

JOYEUX NOEL everyone!!

Joyeux Noel...a little early! :)

I found an Etsy shop called EAB designs that I just fell in love with a few weeks ago. I immediately
purchased one of the linen  Joyeux Noel cones and was thrilled when it arrived.

 Julie adds a vintage french religious medal to each one and I think it is a perfect finishing touch. I  took photos from different angles and couldn't decide which ones to put on my post so you are getting all of them. Hope you don't mind. lol.

Very nice quality craftmanship ...love the scalloped top edge too. I added a bit of hydrangea for the pictures. When it gets closer to Christmas I will add some greens or other holiday decor.

Isn't it beautiful? 







This is the photo that I wanted to open my post with , but somehow it got put in the middle of the post. I tried to move it to no avail until I found it wayyyyyy at the bottom of my post underneath my signature.  So.....then I tried to move my signature back down and I blew it away. Yep...it is out there in cyberspace somewhere. hee hee.

Wishing each one of you a blessed Sunday~
