White Wednesday

I had trouble coming up with a white post today...

The week end was busy...
Monday was busier...
and today...well, today lets just say is not a fully inspired day.

All the white I have today is this...
White, chippy walls...

Just the perfect size.
All charm.
All character...

The perfect white space to play and transform into this...

My second (and last!, I promise) space at Country Roads.

Thank you Sue for the opportunity!

It's about time...

We bought these two German metal mugs about 10 years ago...
We can still remember the sweet German lady that sold them to us at a San Clemente garage sale.

We always thought they were soooo cute...
obviously we are the only ones that see their cute side because they never sold!!!

Yep, 10 years later, they are still here....

Rita, a fellow dealer, once told us:
"Everything sells if you live long enough"
Let us add that Rita turned 80 a few years back...

We don't have Rita's patience...

...if they don't sell now after this quick makeover,
we are going to start thinking that they are meant to stay.

Will Rita be right or will we have new desk accessories??

Update:
Since writing this post, last Thursday, the mugs have SOLD!
Was it the number makeover that helped, or was it their "time to go"?...
We will never know!
