Happy 2011!

Wishing you all the very best for next year....

I had a great ending of the year yesterday with my bestie, and lots of presents!! All little vintage treasures which we both love so much... I might show those next year but here's the beautiful tree with the presents for now. I'm looking forward already to the next presents-swap ;-)

Have fun you all tonight.....

Joy...

Wishing you all lots of joy, goodluck & happy times!

Merry Christmas!

Ingthings

I've been following Ingrid's blog for some months now. Every day i'm curious to see what beautiful pics will be there, what she'll have come up with now (she's creative!) or if she found new vintage treasures... As if all this isn't enough, she's also too good for this world! Every week she's doing a swap with one or a few of her readers! I love the whole swapping idea and some weeks ago i got lucky!! Yay! And oh what a nice surprise to find the package in my mailbox!
The stuff inside couldn't have been more perfect! As if Ingrid knew me...
There were beautiful vintage postcards, a 1969-teatowel, 2 of Ingrid's selfmade paper birds but what made my day was the wooden doll! Love at first side, and now she's showing off between my other wooden dolls!
Ingrid, thanx again, your generosity is really appreciated! As can be read on your blog... ingthings brighten up my day :-)

I could go on and on... so many beautiful vintage cards!! If you're loving them as much as i do, be sure to check the Cute Cards & Postcards from the 60's & 70's group on Flickr!

Almond cake

Did i mention i love cake?

(both baking them & eating them!!)

Also... one of my collector things: vintage plates!

Alice in Wonderland.

New necklace available in my little shop!

Box on a visit.

My friend Cy found this beautiful tin box in the house of her grandma. We're always on the lookout for nice vintage stuff, boxes like this one make our hearts beat a little bit faster...

And! What made this find even better: the box was filled with buttons!! Yay!

The box stayed for some days while i picked the buttons i fancy and then went back to Cy!

It's december!

And it's time for some happiness!

So look what i've done today...

I hope the tree will survive till the holidays now!
