Photos That Haven't Gone Anywhere Until Now. Mainly Vintage and Some Life Thrown In Too

My Curio Display: Only the Bunny on Etsy

Independent Contractors

Last bloomed Christmas 2021 & 2023

Tins are Personal Favorites. Some days, I want to live in that 'mint world'.

Meant to be for New Years. Looking back & looking forward. Not a straight line.

Bottles: Still Waiting...

Bracelets Displayed: Two on right are on Etsy

Coffee Corner: Being redone, transitioning...

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled" 

The Road Not Taken, Robert Frost (1874 - 1963)

Happy Thanksgiving! New Vintage Etsy Assistants!

Note: flower on top. Movable parts. 

                                                                               About 1940s.

Very stately.

Different flowers on each.

                                                           The whole gang.

Shipped yesterday to California and Washington. I have collected gift wrap items for years. Now they are put to good use. I wrap everything I sell. Not fancy but still fun to open when received. I know I enjoy those little niceties in life.

New Photo Tog Assistants helping spice up the displays and photographs for Gracious Cottage Shop. Also, the lambs will do some of the heavy lifting with packages. I'm excited with the originality of these additions. Non-tech "robots" were scored at a warehouse sale last weekend. The lambs were found last month at a small vintage store in Long Beach. I don't have to be concerned with all the napping with these guys like I do with my Siamese assistant.

What I like about having an Etsy shop is the continual learning and the endless ways to express creativity.

Count your blessings today. Visit me tomorrow for vintage gifts.  ALL shipping is free!
