I hit up Warrenton a couple of times already this week and have a few nice little finds to show you. I didn’t come away with tons, but I did get a few things I’m really excited about.
First of all, I think I feel a new collection of these little juice glasses coming on. Aren’t they they sweetest? And GAH! One has a squirrel!! Of course that one was a no brainer. The huge hot air balloon glass had to go home with SOMEONE and my shopping pal wouldn’t buy it so I stepped up. But the squirrel glass? The other side has a FAWN. Perfection.
I also acquired another cool rusted metal planter:
This is an old cream separator, but I thought it was screaming to house succulents in my yard. At just $35 I couldn’t leave it behind.
And of course I had to get Mister Crafter a prize, just for being adorable and awesome. He was well pleased when I brought this home for him:
I thought a vintage advertising door push was just the extra pop the entrance to his office needed. And he’s all about vintage soda stuff these days (as long as it’s not Coke – too played out he says.) I’ve never heard of Golden Girl Soda, but I sure like this sign. And so did the mister! I think I scored some points.
You may know about me that it’s not a successful Warrenton shopping trip until mama gets some bakelite. Well this trip I did manage to rustle up 2 pretty great bakelite pieces:
This wood and butterscotch bakelite necklace is a great, long length and something I think I’ll wear all.the.time. And I’ve been wanting a horse pin for awhile and this one is just about perfect! I love the color and the twine bridle – it’s perfect!
Next up I have some things to show you that I didn’t buy but are definitely worth showing off!
