11, 29 and 4.99

I don't know anything about numerology, but maybe I should play these numbers in the lottery, these digits have popped up the last few days.

11 is the number of sales I've just made since I reopened my Etsy shop.

This is the first sale that got me back into the Etsy-verse.

A sweet, hand-painted, old metal napkin holder that I hope the buyer is enjoying on their kitchen table.

This was my favorite sale (I try not to play favorites, but some things are just hard to see go)…

A collection of mid century vases to give the buyer their own vintage rainbow.

And this was my latest sale...

I'm in love with the 70's fantasticness of this sewing box. 

And it was purchased for someone as a birthday gift, so I hope they love it!

Since I've been back to selling in my shop, I have been reminded that it can be a pain-in-the-butt to make sure I have all the packing supplies I need, and make the post office runs. 

But, I have also been reminded that I really do enjoy finding things that have been lost in an attic, basement or under a bed, and bringing them back out into the world to be discovered by someone who's been looking for just that exact thing.

29 is for the number of years Mark and I have been married since last Sunday. 

I'm hoping I don't make him too crazy with all my thrift store and yard sale finds, that we celebrate 30.

And 4.99 is what I paid for this silver plated bowl I found looking very sad and dirty on the thrift store shelf.

And now it is all polished up and ready for a spot in the Etsy shop.

And 10-gajillion is the number of good things I hope have come your way this summer!

Before you know it, it will be time for thousands of thrift store fall decorations to make their way to the shelves!
