I CAN'T BELIEVE MY LAST POST WAS ON OCTOBER 10TH!!!

Where does the time go???? I have been so busy....but that's a good thing!!! My mother & I had a great time in FL. She is alot of fun!! She loves to go shopping with me at all my favorite antique shops. She doesn't buy anything because she lives in a tiny house that is already filled to the brim but she loves to help me pick out treasures. I haven't opened my online shops yet but I have lots of little vintage dresses to decorate. I have finished a few dresses & I just love them! ( I just hope everyone else will, too)!! I have been searching for vintage hangers for the little dresses but they are very difficult to find! I have also been working on other projects, too. I am just in a creative mode right now. It has left me very little time for being on my computer and posting but I will do better. Tomorrow I am working at the Carriage House, where I have a booth. Tomorrow is also my precious little granddaughter's 4th birthday!!! I will post pictures soon, I promise!!! Love to everyone!!!!

Going to the beach!!!

I'm packing up & leaving for the beach.

This is my view from the balcony of the condo. We occasionally see dolphins swimming by. I am taking my mother & we are going to relax shop and work on my Flickr projects.

The pier was damaged by Ivan in 2004 but it is still beautiful! I will be back next Saturday! Til then....take care, Sherry

Beautiful Flower Basket!!!!

I have been feeling really bad, lately. I have been on 3 different antibiotics, got a shot in the rear and have taken way too many Advil and Tylenol. My Dr. started me on a different antibiotic a couple of days ago and I still don't feel well. I can function as long as I take the advil & tylenol but I know that can't be good for me!! Enough complaining....look at these gorgeous flowers. My friend, Cheryl, sent them to me as a "get well" gift. Wasn't that the sweetest thing!!!! I met Cheryl at the Shoppes At Five Oaks almost 2 yrs. ago. We had both rented booths there the same day & they were right across from each other! I also had the pleasure of meeting her husband, Don and their beautiful daughter, Tara. Cheryl is such a sweetheart....she's the kind of person that you like immediately & feel as if you have known all your life!! I am so glad I stopped in that day & decided to rent a booth!! Thanks, Cheryl, for your friendship!!!

Look at this picture!!

I like this little face, too! It would be cute for "Angels & Crybabies", too!!

I am starting my own little business venture. Here is the picture that I am thinking of using for my business cards and tags for my items. I am sooo excited!!! I am going to sell vintage baby dresses! I am embellishing them with millinery flowers, ribbons, rhinestone pins and brooches & some more little goodies. Each one will be designed and created with love by me! They will be for decoration purposes only. I will be selling on Etsy, the Lollipop Shop, Etsy Cottage Style and in my booth at the Carriage House. I decided on this new venture a week ago. I have not seen any embellished vintage baby clothes for decoration only, ever, so hopefully since this is something new, it will take off and I will become rich!!!!lolol!!! Just kidding!!! Well, it would be nice, but that's not the reason I am doing this. I have always loved vintage baby clothes, vintage hats, vintage rhinestone jewelry and vintage lace and trims. I have alot of these things already so I thought well, Sherry, just put them all together in one place and you can create something gorgeous and sell them.
So what does everyone think??????
