greetings all! on sunday at the hollow I found {1} sole treasure on my quick brisk thru the vendors before opening patinaWHITE. nestled in a bin of odds 'n ends was the sweetest little box {below} in cheerful colors. I plucked it out to discover the box had "irresistible" on it. intrigued, I opened it open to discover a vial of perfume bearing that very name. well, I did agree that is was and happily handed the friendly dealer his $1 asking price & called it a morning on the treasure hunting. I sat the box by me at the cottage and admired it all day...
that little box inspired me to share with you a handful (I mean bucketful) of items that are "simply irresistible" to me. items that, no matter how many I have gathered, I continue to adopt & welcome to the always growing family.
#1. excuse me...do you know what time it is?
I do...time to show my collected pocket watches & clock dials {below}! I should never be short on time with these around!
#2. now i know my ABC's.
i adore old these letters {below}. and could never in two lifetimes possibly ever use them all! who would want to?! i am hard parted with them but have on occasion snuck them in a project or two. the boxes are also another visual treat all in themselves!
#3. there's a sparkle in my eye.
& it must the glint of all the rhinestones piled into this here cigar box {below}. I often say I am like a magpie. seeking out sparkly treasures to "feather my nest" with. everyone sing out...shiny happy people...and bring on the glimmer!
#4. you've got to have faith.
meaning + beauty. i appreciate both qualities in vintage rosaries {below}. which might explain the nearly {100} of them that have found their way into our home. they are so thoughtfully crafted which makes them dramatic in groupings.
so there you have it...some things that brighten my world & are "simply irresistable"! thanks for taking a peek and have a most wonderful day!
