We have had several freezes but my snaps and roses keep blooming...I hated to say good-bye but I had to put my garden away for the winter.

Lea came by today with her little girl...to say goodbye to this great Victorian loveseat.
It's moving to Canada to live with a charming young family. Lea brought the most yummy
homemade brownies ever...I always get a present when she comes...isn't she beautiful?!
Denis built this frame, for this 1894 photo, from some wood he kept out of a barn he tore down...
and I am sad to say HE SOLD MOST OF THE WOOD!
Then just a few shots from my cheapo camera of the paradise I call home!
The last 4 pictures are a boat drive by shooting (camera shooting of course) This is not my home...I'll try to post some pics of my little cottage / store soon .

Connies Stuff

Connie brought some sweet things to the store.

Wedding cake topper

Mr. and Mrs. Sweetie Pie

It was love at first sight... 

All I can see in these pictures are the dust bunnies!

But above the dust bunnies I have a pair of Danish mid-century (MODERN) dressers. I know you are feeling confused. I love all things chippy and painted but I couldn't resist. The drawers slide in and out like hot butter. My first thought was "how cute they could be painted" OF COURSE. I went online and found out that they have a huge following and have some value as is...I am not so sure Montana is ready for MODERN furniture but will give them a while before I put them on EBAY.

I found this platter at a church fundraiser. Thought it was pretty so I broke my buy local /buy handmade rule...well I did buy local and the proceeds went for a great cause.

Scarecrow Sue came by with a trunkful of goodies and I bought these vintage purses. The sweetest little redheaded girl came in and dug through them for her favorite and picked a rhinestone princess crown to go with it . She was delighted and I was charmed...She gave me her money and I gave her her change! Her mother was not impressed! She had given me a 50 and I gave change for a 20.....I was so taken by the little girl that I hadn't even looked at the bill! I really am going to have to try to pay attention......I hope the mom doesn't think I was trying to stiff an 8 year old!

The sun peeked out and it was another beautiful day at Vintiquities!

Chippy White Paint, ECT

This is the oldest toddler bed I have ever seen. Its difficult to see the white paint remnants in this picture but it is so sweet. It has a wire mesh bottom and I filled it with white twinky lights. You have to see this in person. It looks Victorian to me.

Chippy little table

chippy chair and stool.

Brass super uggo candle sticks all painted and pertyfied

This was a table I sanded to paint and as I uncovered these blue and yellow layers of paint I decided sombody might just love it "as is"

The Sun is shining so I've gotta go and get my Vitamin D on while I can!  I just read that the sun doesn't cause cancer...DUH..I knew it all along!  SUN*SUN*SUN* HERE I COME
