Thrifted Thursday.

Well Happy Thursday to you! If you've been following this blog at all, you may have noticed that I haven't done a "Thrifted Thursday" series in three whole weeks! Reason being- I hadn't done anything thrifting whatsoever for at least two weeks, life just got too busy...But, I definitely made up for it this last week by thrifting almost everyday! Man-o-man, I got a lot of awesome stuff, so much so, that I couldn't even photograph it all. But I definitely have several things to share with you today. 

Okay. I'm going to start at the bottom left corner and work clockwise:

1. A plethora of pink/s crocheted hangers...a nickle a piece! My whole closet will be full someday. <3

2. A retro yellow metal colander, it's such a pretty retro yellow!

3. A green floral apron adorned with pretty ric rac :)

4. Mirrors!! Lots of them- A dark blue gridded one,  a floral trimmed one, a gold rectangle one, a mini oval gold one, and not to mention THREE floral mirrored trays (not all pictured). I was in mirror heaven!

5. More floral vintage mugs to add to my collection <3

6. Set of 3 metal trays-- green with yellow daisies. 

7. Set of Mushroom salt and pepper shakers, complete with toothpick holder. (See next photo for detail)

8. A silly holiday elf...to start my holiday knick knacks collection.

9. Pretty orange and white pot holder set.

10. Set of silver Owl salt and pepper shakers!

11. And a silver sitting fawn!

12. A load of itty bity plastic fawns and mini pine trees. ( My dream of a cute Holiday fawn collection is slowly coming true!)

I was scoring left and right! Hooray!

Last night, I was feeling slightly festive after listening to Christmas music all day, so I started putting pretty gold and red bows on random household items, and I dressed up some of my little figurines for the Holidays....it's a pretty sad attempt at an Xmas display, but it was an attempt no less. ;)

They look slightly festive, right? haha.
I wish I had more time in life to be cute and decorative. Le sigh, maybe someday...

I hope everyone is having a fantastic Thursday. Tomorrow is First Friday, and Sun Ghost is performing at the shop, so come by and say hi!!

Toodles.

Swoon Saturday.

Hey there! Happy Saturday to you! Okay, so I've always been that girl who doesn't like to decorate the house for holidays throughout the year...I don't know why, maybe I'm just not that festive...It just always feels kinda cheesy to me for some reason. BUT, this year, I've seen so many cute holiday displays, I may have to change my mind about holiday decorating. There is something so dang cute about holiday fawn...I'm convinced that if I had a stellar collection of vintage fawn, I'd want to dress them up for the holidays. These cutesy kitschy fawns are what I'm currently swooning over today...Maybe by next holiday season I can collect enough to make an adorable display myself!

I'm ultra-mega swooning over that last image...what a fantastic collection!!

Elsie's holiday fawn display is ultra adorable, I always love her displays.


So far, this is as festive as I've been able to get at the shop...I'm going to work a little more on holiday displays after Thanksgiving.

Hope your weekend is going lovely thusfar!

good day, wednesday.

Today was a nice little change from my weekly routine. Typically, I'm always at Butter Toast open to close on Wednesdays, but not today...My lovely business partner, Jasmine, let me take it easy while she manned the shop all morning.
And I definitely did take it easy. Woke up around 8am with my babe. Made us a yummy breakfast. Watched a few episodes of Weeds. The went back to sleep for 3 hours. It was such a lovely little break.

I'm looking forward to Craft Night hosted by Merry May Handmade tomorrow night. I'm finally going to put the finishing touches on the little gnome I've been working on. Here's a little looksy of what I've finished so far <3

The porcelain fawn modeling my gnome-in-progress is one of my favorite buys ever, also from the lovely Ashley at Merry May Handmade.
All I have to do now is add a beard and some button eyes, stuff him, then sew him all up! Please come join us for Craft Night every 2nd Thursday of the month. Located at Butter Toast Boutique, 5pm-8pm.


Tonight, we are rounding up our photoshoot crew to for yet another vintage shoot for our online store.
Maybe I'll snap a few behind the scenes shots and share them you all soon!!

Ta ta,
