Monday's Show and Tell~

Happy Monday to all!
I want to start this post by saying that I hope your weekend was grand and may your week be equally great.
Since coming back from Warrenton I haven't been much for junkin' so today I decided to treat myself to a visit of one of my favorite places in town, The Outpost Resale Shop. They are putting out Christmas decor and I came upon some santos that I thought would make a nice addition to my small but dear collection.
I love Santos that have the chipped paint, vibrant old colors and just to imagine where they were once loved and by whom. It's the Old World Style that I like to use when decorating for the Holidays or anytime of year for that matter.

Here's a close-up of the church I also picked up today. It's actually a candlholder, but I loved that it was silver and a little tarnished. The Clay Rosary was not purchased today but I did acquire this beauty last week while stopping in at Laurent Street Antique Mall. I absolutely fell in love with this rosary awhile back and when it was marked down I had to have it. It sits proudly around my favorite dress form in my bedroom.

Have a blessed day~

  2. Hi there! That first photo is simply marvelous - very captivating. My favorite of all the items is the tiny silver church. I know I would have definitely purchased that too.

    Blessings to you....
