Things I Could Not Leave Behind

Do you ever feel like you are going backwards instead of forward? I feel this way quite often.  Lately for me it's been the weather, a couple of weeks ago I was wearing my Capri's and flip flops then that was done and I had jeans on again and the umbrella back out. Yesterday we had another nice day and I was out working in the yard, it was nice to feel the sun on me.  Of course I live in beautiful British Columbia, rain will again come back but  B.C'ers roll with it.

I notice new life finally starting in my yard.


This delicate lovely plant is Solomon Seal,
 this picture is from last year as its actually just started to come up.


I found this double honey pot holder at a local secondhand store,
it was just so special I couldn't leave it behind.


This apron is finished on both sides which gives you two looks with one apron.


I collect paperweights and I saw this one with this cute bulldog on it and it went into my basket.


I love this bag I found another one with a different saying and picture  on it a few weeks back and posted it in my Monday, 11 March 2013 Coffee On My Mind post.   The pink and white small Pyrex bowls are a nice find I'm always happy to find a piece of pink Pyrex it doesn't happen often.  This lovely flower mug has a Spring feel to it and was made in Japan.


These cherry blossoms look so cheery.

  8. I loved the honeypot and the bulldog (I have a French Bulldog) but have to say I laughed out loud at the bag:-) Love it!!!

  9. Pretty sure the paperweight is actually a pug. In photo it seems to have a curled up tail instead of a docked or short tail. All the same it is very cute.

  12. Second time around is just too fun. I love to go shopping in antique stores, thrift shops and church rummage sales. A person never knows what one will find there. Thanks for sharing your finds.

  16. Good Afternoon Denise, I have never seen a piece of pink pyrex before, although I do own a few cream pieces. I love your little dog paperweight....isn't it unusual, my daughter would love it. I enjoy visiting Charity shops and finding treasurers. I have found you at Claudia's My Favourite Thing. It is lovely to meet you and I have become a new follower.
    I would love it if you had time to visit me at Ivy, Phyllis and Me! I look forward to seeing you there.
    Have a lovely weekend.
    Best Wishes
    Daphne
