This little beauty....1960's black purse. It instantly reminded me of "Jackie O" and I loved the textured look.
Just a little fact...A "Jackie O" style purse does not collapse when you set it down, it maintains its shape..
Like this little beauty. :)
LOVE the texture....they also had an alligator purse but it smelled horrible. I hate when that happens....
I also found this gorgeous 1960's Amber Pitcher. I guess I was in a 1960's mood that day? I thought it would be perfect for a lemonade pitcher... :)
Love the circular details...AND guess what?!?!?!? They have a cake stand to match! SO guess where I'm headed next payday?......Please please please still be there.... Now all I need is 4 glasses to match! OH and 4 little amber dessert plates...see what happens....(I'm addicted). :)
Oh so vintage....And speaking of lemonade, that's exactly what I did!
Here is the lemonade recipe I used...
I do not have a juicer...so I had to use my own two hands.
My hands were killing me, but it was very tasty! :)
Then we sat on our deck and enjoyed our Easter dinner, sipped some lemonade, and enjoyed some blueberry sour cream coffee cake. And enjoyed the view of our blooming trees...this one is my favorite.
(And it's purple!) :)
STAY TUNED! I'm working on a project...
Is that a saw in my hand??? That must mean I built something....right? :)
(Dang I am so pale...practically blend in with the wall.....hehe...)-
Have a great day!
