WHY DO I COLLECT?

Why do I collect? That's easy... because it's so much fun! Ever since I can remember I have been going to flea markets, antique shops, yard sales, you name it. Wherever I could find some sort of interesting treasure or cool piece of junk! I love driving around in search of new places or revisiting my favorite spots. I come from a family of collectors and have lived amongst antiques and collectibles my whole life. I have a passion for decorating especially with things that I find in my travels or even things found in the trash... which by the way can be some of the best stuff! But for those who share the same passion, I don't have to tell you... you all know what fun it is and how addicting it can be! Here I will share my collections, interesting finds, decorating tips, photos, projects, friends collections and thoughts and whatever else I may find along the way.

VINTAGE HARDWARE & RUSTY STUFF


I like this stuff too! Vintage hardware, small tools, architectural items like old shutters, pieces of moulding, old windows, etc... I love placing some of these unusual items in my gardens and around the yard... mixing them in with old flower pots and rocks. Some smaller pieces stay inside like these shown above. Two favorites: this tiny wire sprinkler cover found at one of my favorite places called Antique Haven and an old metal level found at a yard sale. :-)
