Grape cluster GO GO Rosie

 I can do it! That's what I keep telling myself anyhow. It's been a couple weeks since my last post. I would have posted sooner but life is a lil hectic at the moment. Mr. Coco and I have recently acquired MORE work and were told it would be a smart idea to start our own business since we are pretty much doing that anyways. So why not make it official right? Starting on Sunday I will be working everyday until sometime in March. *eeaaak* When one of our jobs will be going back to one day a week instead of two. Which will then give me Mondays off. 
("Don't worry the max hours I will be working a day is about 4 so it's surely do-able")
3 days a week I have been getting up at 4 a.m. to be at work at 5. THANK HEAVENS that will soon be over and all my shifts will be in the evening. 
I will finally be able to do Frock on Fridays again.
*woohoo I am looking forward to it*





Found this tea towel & the earrings above at a thrift shop. Even though I haven't been posting it doesn't mean I haven't been shopping. *lol*

 Bought this kitten for my Grandma O *shhh* don't tell her I haven't given it to her just yet.

 KEWPIES!
One of my weaknesses!

 Frosted glass owl I picked up from Salvation Army
 Family of Elephants
(If you couldn't tell...)

 I am crazy about this bag to keep jewelry or hair stuff
Lots of pockets!
Cross stitch gingham tablecloth
My second pair of Chinese shoes. I found some last year and was just recently thinking I would like a pair with some color. (My others are black) I had even looked online and seen some real cute ones. Thank goodness I didn't buy them because I found these at Salvation army for $3 BRAND NEW!!
Kokeshi doll makeup bag and change purse
My best bargain... was this set of melamine dishes a 16 piece set for $1  
I was screaming so loud on the inside I am surprised people couldn't hear my screetches coming out my ear holes!

I will be be back with another post soon, have a very happy weekend!

  3. Man I haven't been up at 4 am since we used to go on family vacations and my dad insisted on getting up that early. I am not that great of a morning person.

    You got some great finds there. I love the cat with the giant eyes. I'm sure your grandma will like it too.

  14. I am SO in love with those grape earrings! Funny, I just found a grapey brocch I'd picked up a while back and promptly forgot about....must wear the damned thang! The pockety thing is also rather sublime!
    Jaysus, lovey, you're gonna be a busy gal! It'll be to a good end, I am sure. Just tiring, but you CAN do it!

  15. I love that comment about you screaming so loud inside Coconut, I think we probably all know that feeling when we come across some wondrous item in the charity shops. I love that melamine set, I found a fab one too but it doesn't have any cups, and your Chinese shoes are lovely, what a cool tea towel too. And elephants! And an owl! Hope you're coping okay with your work load, at least you're in demand, even though it must be tiring. xx
