Mom Time ~ Antiquing!

 

 

Good Morning,

It was a great weekend! The weather was perfect and I was able to get everything done on my list. I am starting to have problems with my home computer. I hope I can work them out but we will see. I hate buying electronics! I placed two orders with my vendor for some new dresses for the boutique. A plus size dress and regular size dress. We will see if those orders can be filled. Everyone is having issues with supply. 

Our trial last week went well. I am glad that it is finished and off my radar.

Our courtroom ceilings…. beautiful aren’t they?

 

On Friday I had a light day at the office so I left a few hours early to have some “mom time” before I came home to start the weekend. I wanted to go antiquing. I just love antiquing. I could do it every day if you let me. One thing that I added to my list was a bike ride.

It was a wonderful evening for it. We went as a family. 

 

Now let me show you the beautiful items that I purchased!

I purchased this lovely little Lenox swan, a Haviland Limoges beautiful soup tureen, Waterford Marquis small vase, Spode blue and white plate, and a Wedgewood Jasperware pitcher. I paid about $70 for all of it! Wonderful deal, I think!

 

 

The swan has a home on my dresser. I love seeing all of my vintage and antique pieces placed on my dresser. 

 

 

And the small Waterford Marquis vase is on my second clear table in my bedroom which I will share later. This little vase is the perfect size for a small bouquet. I really enjoyed my few hours of antiquing. I did see something else that I wanted from there and I went back to get it. I will share it tomorrow! Have a wonderful Monday!

    Hi Mrs. Shockley,

    What a fun weekend you had! All your antique finds are lovely. I am with you-I could antique everyday if I had the time. Antiquing is truly a hobby-a chic one! Oh my the Wedgwood peice is gorgeous. Looks like the swan has found her perfect home amongst all your dresser pretties. I adore your home Mrs. Shockley. Thank you for sharing your finds with us!

    Sounds like you had a nice full weekend. That’s the way to do it. That court house ceiling is majestic, I must say. Wow. I’m glad the trial went well and is now over. Sigh of relief. You found some lovely pieces at the antique shop. Ould you share about your bike? I’ve been longing for a bike for some time. I’d like to know about yours please. That’ll be a good post. Have a fabulous week💕🌸😊

      It is a sigh of relief for sure. I wish I could share the link to my bike. I will try to find it. I know that it is sold out.
