high chair love

Originally uploaded by totinette

My weekend was a roller coaster of estate and church rummage sales. Friday on my way home from work I found that adorable vintage high chair at a rummage sale for only $15! (For those of you who don’t read my more personal livejournal blog and might not know…we’re expecting a baby in September!) Saturday I was super excited about a giant sale full of kids/baby/maternity stuff, only to be completely overwhelmed when I got there. I picked out a few unisex clothes, then decided I didn’t love any of them enough to wait in a 30+ minute long line on a beautiful sunny day. Feeling unsatisfied with the outcome of that one, I went to FOUR other rummage sales and came home completely empty handed! I guess I used up all my good sale karma for the weekend on the high chair! :)

I have a big thing for vintage dishes and souvenir plates…so much so that my husband has cut me off from bringing home any more cups or glasses. The cupboards are full! My little collection of plates just sits in a silver buffet waiting to see the daylight. That’s why I love Lisa Congdon’s plate wall! What a fabulous way to display your collection and decorate your house at the same time! She’s posted a tutorial here, so you can create your own.

Looking for some new inspiration and supplies for your craft projects? There are two great opportunities to swap your old or unwanted craft supplies for some new ones this weekend!

Saturday, April 19th from 1:00-4:00pm
at The 100th Monkey Studio (110 SE 16th Ave., Portland)
From their website: Please bring any art or craft materials that you aren’t using anymore. We’re open to pretty much everything paints, (clean) fabrics, yarn, beads,  buttons, pens and pencils & paper. The only stuff we’re not looking for are those random cast-off things you’ve been hanging onto in case that perfect project comes along. You know . . . those paper-towel tubes and  items that would be better off in the recycle bin.

Sunday, April 20th from 1:00-2:30pm
at Union Rose
(2023 NE MLK Blvd, Portland)
Things to bring: yarn, fabric, notions, beads, paper crafts, needlework - you get the idea
(leftovers will be taken to SCRAP)
