This weeks 2nd Time Around features a Christmas find. I ran across these little Fitz and Floyd napkin rings a few weeks ago at an estate sale. I really liked , but decided to list them in my Vintage Etsy shop since I am trying to get it established and needed some cute merchandise At first I didn’t think they would sell, but they did after about 2 weeks. Now they have a great home in New York! Have you ever sold something and were not sure you really wanted to? That’s how I felt about these…but I know I can’t keep it all! And it makes me feel good to know that they have a home where they are now wanted!

And last but not least…here is my tree….and it is a 2nd Time Around of sorts. Last year I added alot of lime green to the stuff I already had. This year I used the lime green again! I did add the long green ornaments that look sorta like pine cones-bought after Christmas last year on sale of course!

Since I’ve been scouting out sales for items for my booth at the antique mall and for my Etsy shop, I’ve found lots of things I’ve bought for my home.

Recently I found these two pretty butterfly prints tucked away at the Salvation Army Family Store. They are the perfect size for a little nook near my desk!

Then the same week, I found these pansy prints at a local garage sale. The frames were a little too ‘gold’ so I used Rub n Buff to tone them down a bit. Now they are hanging on a bare wall in my bath. IMG_1936

Have you found any 2nd Time Around treasures lately? Tell us about them!

Thanks for stopping by!
