Bosom Buddies

Sorry, I just couldn't resist...
I thought these vintage lovelies displaying jewelry at
 Leola's Christmas Open House
definitely needed some "air time".



Hmmm...they look "well loved"...



Cool jewels too...

Vintage Inspiration Friday
is still going on, and that my 
All Things French Give Away 
is just getting started. 
Just scroll down to join in the fun!

Vintage Inspiration Friday # 63: All Things French Give Away

Are you wondering what has inspired me this last week? Well, you all are my inspiration over and over. Because of that I'd love to thank each one of you personally for being here with me this last two years. Just know that I read each of your comments, laugh with you, cry with you, and hold you dear. I'd love to have a big party where we could all get together and hug, laugh, sit and talk, (and oh yeah, eat...)but since I can't, I just want to say a heartfelt thank you, and share a few things "French" for this celebration!


(I'd love you to grab the button on the sidebar!)

So, here are a few things going into the Give Away package;
a gorgeous handmade French pillow from Jolie Marche.

Some wonderful  gift products and a French Lavender bundle 
from L'Occitane. 

And one of my signature pendants with 
a little "frenchiness".


All for one of you sweet followers out there.

More from Leola's Open House

In case you missed yesterday's post, be sure and scroll down to catch the first edition of all the pics from Leola's Open House. I still have a few blurry ones here. I had to laugh at some of your comments from yesterday...it seems there are more than a few of us out there that are "visually challenged"!!  That's what happens when you're over 50 and/or have had a glass of champagne. noop, I just had the cider...






































Is it me, or do some of these vintage Santas look a little creepy?












I'm sorry these are so blurry...
they are super cool,
watch parts and bling in pocket watch casings.






One of these came home with me too!
The one that says "faith".


Guess what's happening tomorrow?

Details coming on 
Vintage Inspiration Friday!
