Visit to the Thrift Store!

I Love the Hunt!
I found Vintage Pottery!

While Hubby went to Lowes and Home Depot
I had him drop me off at a not so local Goodwill.
I actually had a good amount of time to kill while hubby was doing his thing.
And I was able to look through all the clothing racks which rarely
happens I'm usually short on time.

On another post I'll share my secret and strategy on
just where to start looking when checking
out the multi crazy clothing racks.
Stay tuned for updates on that!

But this particular day while on the hunt,
I didn't find any clothing I wanted. 
But buried in the stacks of Kitchen ware and
there tends to be a lot of that.
I spotted these two wonderful vintage Batter Bowls!
A Bauer bowl what a cool find!
And in pristine condition.
The Other an oven proof Marcrest Daisy Dot bowl.


Needless to say they both came home with me!
Aren't they the perfect Autumn colors?
I can see the larger one filled with my
Halloween Trick-or-treat candy this October.


I don't always come home with a Treasure.
 But when I do I think it was a "Meant to be" kind of day.

Stay Cool,

Local Vintage Shop Visit



I Love Visiting Vintage Shops How about You?

A few years back just before COVID we had a wonderful
vintage shop right here in my hometown Newbury Park.
Then COVID it and it was gone.
The good news is now we have another Shop that is minutes from my home.
"The Old Conejo Cottage"
3833 Old Conejo Rd. Newbury Park CA 91320
It's always such a treat to visit.
So many wonderful vendors that keep
things fresh each week.
Here's a few pics I took a week ago.


This place is filled with treasures


Every corner is filled with a surprise.






One vendor has a large assortment of Vintage Quilts!



 This reminded me of the movie with Lucy & Ricky
"The Long Long Trailer"


There is one booth filled with vintage trains.


Amazing collection of Milk Glass!


I try and visit the shop each week
the store hours are Thursday - Sunday
And every time I stop in things have changed.
More Vintage Goodies added!


This is one of my latest purchases a 
West German Vintage Plush Dog from the 1930's.
He's just adorable and his head turns.
Don't you just love his red harness!


He's now part of my Patriotic Centerpiece!


Well Another week and I will definitely 
popping in even just to look, 
hope you enjoyed the small tour of this wonderful shop!

Be Safe Love,
