What we're LOVING this week!

Hi Everyone! :) It's Beth! Hope everyone is having a great week! Mine has been LOOOOOOONG so far, and I can't wait until the weekend!! :) Mom and I have a garage sale to get ready for on the 30th of this month, and we have A LOT to do! Well, take that back, I have A LOT to do! :) Procrastination at it's best right here.

Anyways, each Wednesday we're going to do a post about what we're loving and/or what we're not loving so much. :) This week is all about the love, because I need some positiveness (is that a word??) today!! So here goes.....

First a few etsy finds! These are some items we've come across recently and added to our favorites! (Click on each picture and it will take you to the etsy listing for that item, and then in the description of each one I added a link straight to each etsy shop!)

These little guys are hilarious!! :) And they have tons of different animals, people and even zombies to choose from! :) Check out Paper Moon Gallerie here! (I'd personally LOVE to get one of these in my Easter Basket!!) ;)


Pixie Dust Miniature's has the cutest "miniature magic" items in their shop! Check them out here!! I personally love the ones pictured above and the Harry Potter inspired items! :)


Mom found this little guy, and I fell in love with him when I saw him! Who wouldn't want this cute little dude hanging on your neck? :) Sweety Summer has some really cute jewelry, and hopefully they will restock their shop soon with some new goodies!! Check them out here and keep an eye on when they return!


I LOVE felted wool! And these pin cushions from astashtoys are adorable!! They have a TONS of cute felted items for sale in their shop! Check them out here!


And last but not least is this adorable suitcase from AdaLou Vintage! Sadly for all of you it's already sold, but good thing for me because I'm the one that bought it!!! :) I had a similar one when I was little, (see photo below) and we got rid of it, so I was looking to replace it! :) I LOVE IT! Plus she has lots of other great vintage items too! Check her shop out here!


A few last things I'm loving are my finds from last night and a few things I bought from a fellow blogger yesterday!

On my way home from Zumba at about 6:30pm, I noticed that my favorite Antique Mall/Flea Market, Franklin's was OPEN!! There were TONS of cars there. So I got home gave them a call, and turns out they were having an Open House/Dinner that night. HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS? LOL :) So she said of course come on up, and up I went. :) (I am now on the phone list to be called for events like this, so I won't miss any! hehe)

Anyways, I walked away with a CUTE wooden Pepsi crate for only $14 and a pretty blue Ball Mason Jar that I'd been eyeing for months, that finally dropped in price from $8 to $3! YAY! :) Pretty good deals last night! :)

Last, but not least! :) I got 2 cute items from Amanda at Our Humble A{Bowe}d

She posted Monday about how they were cleaning out their house and she had done a major purge in her kitchen, and had lots of things to get rid of. Then she opened it up and asked anyone to email her if they saw anything they were interested in! So I immediately emailed her and scooped up these lovelies! She was so sweet and we worked out a great deal on shipping, set up an etsy listing for me to buy it and everything is on it's way!! I can't wait to get these goodies!! :)

First is this vintage kitchen organizer, holder thingy. :) The cool thing about this one is it has 4 slots, while a lot I've found only have 3! :) It can hold Paper towels, waxed paper, aluminum foil, and saran wrap. I haven't decided if I'll actually use it in the kitchen or just sit it out to look pretty, (or I might use it in my craft area, I have some smaller rolls of wrapping paper that will fit on it!). :) But it was just too CUTE to pass up! :) And for only $25 I couldn't say no. :)

Next up is this set of 8 vintage embroidered napkins! I just LOVE the blue flower design!!! And the edges are adorable!! I've got a few ideas up my sleeve to repurpose these so hopefully I can get it done soon and post about it on here! :)

Well that's it for this week! :) What are y'all loving? We'd love to see and hear about your recent finds!! :) Send us a message on facebook, tweet us, convo us on etsy, or email us at rattydaddydinkdum [@] gmail.com.


Have a great day!! :)


Beth
