A magical dress and weekend purchases

 This Welcome sign was the only thing I found garage saling on Saturday.
The dress I am wearing is new I got it on sale at Winners last week. I don't purchase clothes new very often, but when I seen this dress I just couldn't resist.
It was just something about the ruffles and tiers that called my name.
 I pretended I was a fairy and ran in circles and jumped up and down in my backyard.
 I explored a forest of mushrooms and pranced barefoot in clover fields while the sun touched my back.
This dress is magic!

To add to the magic I was also wearing one of Desiree's Sassy Vamps headbands

Since I only found one thing in peoples driveways. I decided to visit some thrifts.
 I found this juice jug made in Italy
 These Geta sandals
 This Brass turtle dish (Who now lives on the back of my toilet)
 Brass Egyptian letter opener
 Schiaparelli Scottie tie (Cuteness)
 Angel baby figurine (My Mother's purchase) Lamb with rhinestone eyes (My purchase)
From two different stores ... but they seem to fit together sort of...
 First bloom this summer on my mini rose. It got all bug eaten in the beginning of summer and now finally has grown fresh leaves and one rose. I bring my rose inside in the fall and put it outside the spring. This is it's 3rd year alive.

I am linking up with Lakota's Ta-Dah! Tuesday

*Baaaaaa byeeeee*
