To Find Them True



Thought I'd show you a couple of Etsy pick up's I've made this week. The oil landscape above is going to fit in nicely with my little collection I've got going on. I found it in all it's loveliness over at Rat Pack Pack Rat.

But the thing that filled my heart with joy is the vintage embroidered pillow case at the top, which says ''and wake to find them true''. Love it. It's big too, 25" x 25".  That was snapped up at a little vintage portal that my mate Anne Sage put me on to called Copper And Tin.

But just to prove that I don't always get everything I want : ) I just wanted to share one that got away. Because it is entirely lovely. This vintage oil below just made my little heart strings ping. But instead of hitting Add To Favourites, I should have hit Buy Now. Isn't it gorgeous? This little guy was seen at A Design Process.

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend, filled with a nice mix of fun and sleep ins. And that when you eventually awake you find them true.

Treasures each and every one.

The message on the pillowslip is wonderful and the little boy is sweetness personified.

Good luck with this weeks' treasure hunting,

The one that got away, is so adorable but your other painting and pillow cover are pretty fantastic too!
Have a lovely Sunday! (I did pass on a little award to you as well - hope that's ok!)

What a beautiful pillowcase! Isn't it a bummer when you miss out on goodies. But I suppose we can't have everything :)

Oh,poo...I have missed so much goodness over here at my darling Jule's! I guess I have gotten out of my habit, thinking you were super busy and not here so much. Bad me! I LOVE your collection you have going, my friend. And that dreamy pillowcase ( how incredibly sweet). I am sorry your search for a home is not turning anything great up yet! I am keeping my fingers crossed for you darlin!
