Friends and Antiques


Friends and Antiques always go well together :)
Today, i spent time in the cute town of Snohomish with some childhood family friends. We browsed the many vintage and antique stores including the Star Center Antique Mall. Marisa and Chanel were hunting for blue glass Mason jars and silver candle sticks - which they found. I am always hunting for cheap and cool furniture, but didn't find any.
I did find this beautiful green floral print linen table cloth ($20).
Today, my favorite things were these old steamer chests with drawers and hangers! Then you can pack all your clothes and have a mini closet when you arrive. These chests bring a new, positive meaning to the phrase "living out of a suitcase."
.....I don't think you can fly with them, unfortunately.
I also had my eye on this lobster pull along toy for Elliott, but didn't get it ($35).
I fell in love with this beautiful, silk chiffon Edwardian/Titanic Era style dress ($225). I love the emerald color and attached capelet!
I did not buy, but took some photos to remember :)

I should have bought these 6 cups with saucers (only $6!)
I like the colors of this wool embroidered bedspread:
Here is a pretty fern gate - I would love to have something like this someday.
