Little Discoveries~


I was on my way to work last week when I decided to stop by the antique store that I pass each and every time I go out to the farm.  I've made a point of not stopping by but could not take it any longer.  I'm so glad I caved because I found these precious little girls to add to my Holt Howard collection.  They are called "Daisy 'Dorables" and they certainly are adorable!


Always a push over for a white picket fence, this little pitcher found it's way into my car.  What is it about this time period that draws me so?


I also go weak in the knees for vintage children's toys and this little phone had me as soon as I saw the color.  I love that it rings when you dial it.  It makes me smile whenever I look at it.


I snapped this picture this morning.  I know that fall has started in the garden when the fall Clemantis starts to bloom.  It is out of control this year.


Growing through the Clemantis is a Morning Glory vine that comes up on it's own every year.  It looked so pretty in the morning light today.


The color of this vine is amazing.  I could do a whole quilt around the color of this one flower.  Such treasures!

Joyfully,
