Fun Girl Weekend

Yesterday Shirley & I drove to Amador City to check out the annual Great American Porch Sale.  The woman who puts it on has a shop in town called Country Living.  Now once a year she has this fun sale on the giant wrap around porch at her home.  Here are a few of my porch finds.  After this we walked to the historic downtown & checked out the antique stores. 

 

 

 

After this we drove to the next darling town of Sutter Creek.  They have a wonderful historic main street as well loaded with antiques.  One store in particular we absolutely LOVED.  It is called Victorian Closets owned by Sally Knudson.  She has owned it since 1972 & it's beautiful.  Sally was gracious enough to allow me to take pictures for my blog.  Not only are her items for sale beautiful she displays them in the most wonderful way.  Here we go ...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm in heaven.  Beautiful antiques AND quilts!

 

I have a sweet pincushion doll just like this one at home.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After Sutter Creek we went to a few thrift stores & then on to Jackson.  By then, 8 hrs later my feetsies were in flames so we only went to 4-5 antique stores in Jackson.  We came home.  Shirley spent the night & we went out this morning to Oakley & Brentwood garage sales.  Our last treasures below.

This is one of those lap cushions that you can do projects on like sewing.

 This garage sale clock will look cute in mom's little apartment.  They let me set my own price on the antique photo! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can't believe I found ANOTHER pretty floral vintage shoe bag.  Now I have one in shabby blue & shabby pink.  Aren't these colors dreamy ~~~~~

 

My next post will be about the surprise party my husband threw for me last weekend.  The photos are not yet on my computer.

Till next time : )

What a fun time!! Your photos are lovely & really capture the pretties so well. We didn't miss a thing! Doing all of highway 49 in our RV's is something I've always wanted to do. Think we better find a giant fishing hole for the guys. He, he.
