For this week’s challenge I made a visit to my favorite
antique consignment shop. Inside this
previous Harley Davidson dealership are a hundred or so booths; collectors all renting space
to sell their wares. Let's go in shall we and see what we can find.
MINI
After already taking my mini
photo I stumbled upon this mini bottle.
The tag is what actually caught my attention as it states this comes from the small
town both my parents are from Cheboygan.
SHOES
I found this fabulous portrait of this little child. I am
not sure if it is a little girl or boy. The
little black shoes are adorable.
Of course, after I took this photo I came across this:
MIRROR MIRROR
For an art journal assignment I had to take a selfie, a practice I
do not partake in even though it seems to be all the rage. I took me about 10 shots to get the hang of
where my eyes needed to look in order for it to look like I’m looking at
myself. I was fighting a cold that day
so I was wearing my comfy sweater. I always reach for it when I’m feeling sick
or having the day from **** and need to feel some comforted.
SHOPPING
Here are 2 of my favorite booths:
JUST BECAUSE
I fell in love with this vintage framed tin and had I had
the $40 I would have purchased it.
Why? Just because I like it!
Here are my purchases: Flower book for art journaling;
Ladies Home Journal for my mom for Mother's day; bird books for my friend
Colleen in the Ukraine who makes these
fabulous bird art journals ; Cabin photos for an Altered book project I would
like to make; and an old school house photo because I live in one and now
collect photos of them.
Enjoying another week scavenging for photos for Scavenger Hunt Sunday. Take a moment and stop by to see everyone's fabulous finds!
I could spend some time in this place. Great images. Have a blessed Sunday.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a wide assortment of things, it looks fun. I like the shoe fund too!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a fun shopping trip. I love the old embossed bottles and the old photos. The shoe fund is funny. It made for a great answer for the prompt. It looks to me like you did a great job with the selfies. I still haven't figured out where to look when trying to take them. I have gotten pretty adept at taking one of the top of my head to check my part, though.:)
ReplyDeleteI don't do selfies either-but have that as an assignment next month so will have to see what I can come up with.
ReplyDeleteI like that framed tin and I could spend time in those last 2 booths myself.
What a fun place to go exploring!!
