Cool Junk Huntin'

My idea of a fantastic weekend, great friends, alot of laughs, great shopping and of course, lots of vintage treasures. I am talking of course about the Christie Antique Sale in Dundas, Ontario. Here is just a hint of all the wonderful treasures I wasn't able to bring home-I needed a transport to haul everything I wanted. As it was, I brought 3 full suitcases home.



I also had a custom order finished and picked up by the customer today. I think it was a success and it was alot of fun to do. This Foo Foo Fairy was made as a gift for a local dance instructor. I hope she loves it...
until next time, faerie wishes and pixie giggles...

Celebrate Spring



Finally, after MUCH anticipation it feels as though spring has arrived. I am off on my buying trip , hoping to find wonderful treasures to share with you upon my re-opening. I have also been very busy preparing workshops that I hope to have posted here in about a week. In the meantime I thought I would share some fun pics from my garden...




Until next time Faerie wishes and pixie giggles...

Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to all the Moms out there. I truly believe it is the toughest job in the world. Today I spend the day with my Mom making arrangements for her Mothers funeral. My grandmother passed away yesterday and she is the last of my grandparents. We have been sharing stories and memories, and one thing that comes up in every story is that my Grandmother was always feisty,  sometimes to a comical fault, however she was the most loyal and protective mama bear to those she loved.

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. ~Washington Irving
