I found this at the thrift on Saturday:
It's a complete box of vintage stationary. I can't place the year but the paper is a nice grade and had a bit of a musty smell to it. I sat it outside on the porch for a bit and that cleared that up right away. I have big plans for this paper. I've already started but alas, cannot share yet. It's a simple project that brought me quick satisfaction. Don't you wish all things were like that?
Also this weekend I found the Thrifting Triple Crown: Vintage Table Cloth, Apron and Pyrex. Here's a peek at the table cloth . . .
It's in perfect shape, too. I may be gifting the other two pieces but if my greed wins out, I'll share those with you as well. :) Also coming next week are shots of my lovely aprons made by Leigh Ann! You will love them I promise. Now if I can just nail down Luis to take my picture!
I'm off to Baltimore for a long weekend so I may not be posting until I return. I'll certainly be lurking though. Have a safe and wonderful week my friends!

PS - Sweet Goodness Swap details coming next week!

Speaking of paper, I saw these GORGEOUS fourth of july paper crowns that I keep meaning to tell you about at Bayberry cove.

You certainly did get the thrifting triple crown! Love the vintage stationery box, looks like it will hold all sorts of treasures!

You're coming down to enjoy the nice Maryland weather! Have a good trip! And if you get near college park, you should go visit my favorite thrift store!
Can't wait to see what else you found! I too have a love for paper...I just haven't seem to have found my nack with it yet. I did make this years Christmas cards if that counts for anything...I'd like to do more though
