~VINTAGE CLOTHING and LACE FINDS~

 

~ROUND TABLECLOTH with DEEP CROCHET LACE~

I spent most of my day today on the Estate/Tag Sale hunt and I get so excited when I score BIG with vintage linens.  I never really know just WHAT I will find when fluttering about town...

~TONS of CROCHETED DOILIES~

All in all I think my Mr. AGPMan (and our son!) visited six different sales...

two were phenomenal

two were great

one was good

and

one will go down in history

as being the worst managed sale I've ever attended...

~LOVE THIS RUNNER~

Lots of pics to share today!

A few I'll move over to Pinterest and Facebook!

~LOVELY EDGING~

You know...I said once that if I ended up with more followers on Pinterest than I did on my Blog then it might be time to quit writing and just share pretty photos!

~LOTS OF THIS LACE~

Hmmm...getting awfully close here....

~TRIM MADE with RIC RAC~

This sweet edging included the note you see below.  Basically it says it was crocheted while a momma rocked her baby/cradle with her foot!  How sweet is that?

 

 ~LOVE THIS NOTE~

 ~VINTAGE BODICE~

 ~FANTASTIC HUGE TABLECLOTH~

 ~AMAZING STITCHING~

 ~BEAUTIFUL~

 ~BREATHTAKING~

 ~MY FAVORITE FIND~

~MORE THAN LOVELY~

The vintage tablecloth is my FAVORITE FIND!  I love all the other lace pieces and the vintage clothes, but the tablecloth is amazing.  It has some storage issues, but no stains from use.  I honestly don't believe it ever graced a table.  Somehow I think that is very sad...

Anyway...the cloth is ENORMOUS!  Maybe that's why it was never used...too large for a family table.  

Hope you love all my treasures!

I have Christmas Stocking running through my brain.

Before I go...just a note to thank those of you who have written regarding my last post.  Your thoughts and concern for my husband mean more than I can say.  When it comes time for me to close my bloggie for good your kindnesses to me will be what I miss the most.

Love to you...

~A PATHWAY UNCLEAR~

Sometimes I need to be reminded

that God is always on time with

His Mercy

and

His Blessings

and

that His LOVE is never ending~

Your prayers for my Mr. AGPMan are appreciated.

 

IF YOU WANT ME TO

Songwriters: MATTHEWS, KYLE DAVID / GINNY OWENS

The pathway is broken and the signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why you brought me here
But just because you love me the way that you do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If you want me to
Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise
You're not through with me yet
So if all of these trials
Bring me closer to you
Then I will go through fire if you want me to
It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But you never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone
So when the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear you answer my cries for help
I'll remember the sufferin' your love put you through
And I will go through the valley

~EVERY LOVE STORY...~

 I've been keeping busy this week working on fun new website and Booth offerings!

Isn't this staying the sweetest thing?

"Every LOVE STORY is beautiful, 

but ours is my  favorite."

Just finished the outside of this vintage Suitcase!  

 LOVE the French Farmhouse look and feel to it!

Now for the inside!

These are busy days for me.

Trusting for a promising Fall.

Love to you...
