Troll Bead Love (and lust)

For my friend Aimee....cannot get over that we are both Troll lovers!! I have had mine since last Valentine's day .... and still drool over it...love the stories behind all the beads....the Blue Fizz (top) is my newest...it is so pretty-mine is a deeper color than the photo appears. "Three Siblings" is one of my favorites (in honor of my sissies! i am the 3rd of 5...and when you count the swirls from a certain angle...you get five...a stretch, I know...but it works for me!) the bottom one is the one Rob surprised me with on my birthday last year -"Valentine."

Someday (when I hit the lottery?) I will buy the silver/gold PLANET. How gorgeous is that one?

Hmmm...think I will go update my WISH LIST! : )

Swirls!

I loves me some LuRay! and other antique shop finds....

Another fabo find while in Berkeley Springs this weeked....Look at this stash of LuRay Pastels! I didn't buy any.....but the sight of these all stacked together makes me smile (isn't half the fun of collecting the SEARCH?) and....my sister Jackie spotted the PITCHER.....I had never seen one in person....that baby was marked $120...and was in perfect shape. Aren't I strong for resisting?

I did splurge on one thing...an old printer's tray....in great shape (one blotchy ink stain--but that just makes me love it more)...and only 11 bucks!! BARGAIN!
