Last week I went out with a list and low and behold, I found everything I was after.
My list consisted of...
*a birthday gift (the book)
*4 red and white milk caps (3 out of 4 isn't bad. At least the fourth has red on it and isn't green or orange.)
*white posies
Then the shopping got better, because I found a few extra pretties too.
*Northeast Africa plant life recognition cards
*a lovely pearl and rhinestone brooch
*light pink velvet ivy leaves
And it was all done in a very timely manner. Here's to a good day of shopping!

What lovely treasures you did find!! Hmmm......wonder what fabulous creations will be made with them?!
Lucky You! Are you going to go to Antique Alley in Cleburne this weekend? The mud may be knee deep. But, there is like 15 miles of Antiquing & Garage Sales on Hwy. 4 In the spring a friend & I went (they had terrible rain then too) & found some good stuff.
Lovely goodies! Wonderful stuff to craft with! Have fun with all your treasures!
Glad you found everything! I have a hard time finding milinery flowers around here.
There are those days when everything just pops right up in front of us..the best! Glad all worked well and such beautiful finds!
Fun finds, glad you had shopping success:)

Wow, you really did get lucky. I don't think that I have ever been able to go out looking through vintage items and come up with exactly what I had in mind or what was on my list. Good shopping there!! Love the brooch.
Great job shopping! What a day finding the things on your list! Love the white flowers. Can't wait to see what you do with it all.

Definitely fantastic finds. Especially the book!! Also, loved the way you packaged it up.
I do the same thing, make a list of what I'm looking for. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It really worked for you this time.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend,
Cari B.
