Hello dear friends. I hope all of you had a wonderful weekend. I know I did. Nice and relaxing. We took in a Halloween parade today, went for a brisk bicycle ride... very brisk, and now, I am watching
Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Choo Choo Express with my kids and blogging while the commercials are on! I am glad The Disney Channel decided to premiere it prime time, so I can watch it with them. Big, little fans of Mickey we have in this house! Yesterday,I had a chance to visit the flea. I brought home with me this little guy! Isn't he adorable in his garden of millinery, also found at the flea. I love his soft, faded colors of sage and pink.This picture is really not the best. I did not realize that until I uploaded it on my computer. I think you can still make him out though!
Found these pretty ornaments. The snow capped ones are my perpetual favorites! I am always on the look out for them in my favorite colors! And I could not pass up that pretty gold and pink one there. Could there be a better color combination than gold and pink? I think not. The glass beads were too good to resit too, as they are larger than any I have ever seen!
This is my favorite ornament that I found yesterday.... may actually be my favorite ornament, period.The faded pink and all that detail! A real beauty!
I found a big ol' bunch of these itty bitty pink velvet maple leaves. I think they were a portion of old stock. They are in perfect condition... and.... I just could never leave velvet leaves sit!!
And, take a look at this fabulous sky we had while on our little ride this evening after dinner! Spectacular isn't it? Just more of Fall's splendor!
Great finds at the flea. You can't go wrong with vintage Christmas - especially in shades of pink. Love the little spun head guy!

I adore Autumn, it's my favourite time of year. Especially as it turns into winter. Another favourite of mine.
I agree, pink and gold is the perfect combination. This year I decided I wanted a vintage look to our main Christmas tree, so set about sourcing vintage style decorations. I've found some really beautiful stuff. Just as well, as genuine vintage seems to be elusive in the UK.
You found some corking beauties. Lucky you!
:o)

I LOVE the fact your a girly girl!!! Looking at all the eye candy on your blog is simply amazing! I LOVE pink and vintage and your home is beautiful! I wish we had a flea market around my home! Lots of antique stores but I have yet to find a flea market to frequent.
Hugs and blessings, Dawn Marie
