Picture overload


This past weekend Mr. B and I headed to Pennsylvania to visit my mom and popparoni. It was a much needed visit filled with comfort, food and lots of laughs. Sometimes, well most times, when we go there, we antique. There is a great Antique Barn there called Peddlers Village. It's filled with amazing things. Here are some shots that I took inside. Apparently some vendors are a little touchy when it comes to photos. One person running a booth questioned why I was taking pictures and advised me "in his opinion I should not..." HA ! What a grumpy old man !

There are some great treasures to be found inside the barn. Some I did actually get, but more on that tomorrow. First two pictures of non vintage items. There is a little nook in the front of the barn with items made from the Amish. This is one of them. I loved it.

I want my father in law to make me this. It's a bench made out of a raised panel door ! So cool

Another shot 


These are just cool. Copper wire in glass bowls. I'd never pay what they were asking, but a great idea !

Ball jars.

Love these glass door knobs ! So awesome.

Gorgeous tea set. Very expensive too !


 Here are a few items in the grumpy old man's booth. No one else mentioned to me to not take photos and there were no signs. Maybe I should have just known? I don't know. Any one else experience this?
Cute little lighted Christmas tree.

Awesome old seltzer bottle, and do you see that stained glass back there to the right? So so beautiful.
I think I have a crush on hunting pictures.

 Here are some more treasures found a long the way.



Cool playing card banners.






Just love the old ladder they used as a prop.

Christmas galore !
So cool but no room for this puppy at my house.

I always see this there, I love this silhouette pattern. But very expensive !

I tried so hard to think of a place for this shutter. Could not come up with one, so it stayed in PA. Sad.
 Then we moved to another antique store down the road. This one is nice, but overpriced ! My mom did get my the old window here though, so I guess she is good for some things.
What greets you on the outside
Pottery
An awesome stained glass Fleur De Lis. If I knew my sister in law would like this, it so would have been her b'day gift !

Oh how this picture is crappy, but Mr. B really wanted this lol. It's still in PA. too =).

The pictures came out great. Next time we need to go to "your favorite" and maybe the Chic Lamp store!

A room fit for a beatiful baby boy....

I wrote this post about a week before I had our son. I never posted it to my blog but wanted to share. It's almost been a month since baby B's arrival. Things are still a bit upside down over here, but boy are we in love !!!   It took a bit but it has all finally come together, I have some more final touches but not too much to go.  This is the most modern room in our home, even with it's vintage touches.  It took me a while to figure exactly which direction I wanted to go with in regards to decorating. Bedding was hard because I literally hated everything. I thought I found something on ETSY but once we found out it was a boy, I wanted something a little more boyish. The one thing that I can say always remained constant regardless of the sex of the baby or style of the room,  was the Jenny Lind crib. It's my favorite. Once I figured out what colorings I wanted for the room, I knew the black was the right choice. So here is the breakdown of...

Lipstick messages

Yesterday was my birthday. Nothing fabulous. At this point of my age, it's just another year older. Nothing monumental, not a new decade, nothing to go crazy about.... But it got me thinking about when my sisters and I were younger, (and anyone else who may have lived here from time to time) my mom would write lipstick messages on our bathroom mirror. Most of the times it would say "Happy Birthday" to us. And if I was having a terrible week , it would be something encouraging like "I love you, have a great day." Well, I definitely miss my lipstick messages. I wish when they were written, we had Facebook or Instagram. What a cool thing to have captured. Here is a picture of what one may have looked like, not ours, but similar.

My pregnancy and birth story

  As I mentioned in my last post my pregnancy was very long. 10 months to be exact ! But in all seriousness it was the hardest thing, by far, that I've done. I was never comfortable, I was never over the moon excited because I was scared. Scared straight.   Mr. B & I were very lucky, we only tried for three months before we got pregnant. We knew that we wanted to try in the new year of 2012. I was finished with school and ready for the next chapter in our lives. I was actually over ready. I couldn't wait to be pregnant, be a mom, and see Mr. B be a dad. My pregnancy started out just like everyone elses I assume, calm? I tested five days before I was due to get my period. I remember I had gotten the stomach bug that was going around last year and the Monday I tested, I was still off from work because of it. I texted my sister asking if she thought it was too early to test, she said no... so off I went to test. It came up with a faint line of...
