Hope you did something yesterday to honor the Earth on the 38th Anniversay of Earth Day. We cleaned out the garage with the kids. Believe me, this is quite a feat with the amount of boxes that I accumulate from swaps, etsy, etc. We then took all the cardboard to the recycling facility with the kids so they could see what it was all about. I try to do my own part in re-using by using vintage "treasures" for my crafts that otherwise may be thrown away. I see it as a good thing...for everyone:)
Romantic Homes magazine this month has a beautiful article about Lily of the Valley flowers. These little gems are such a welcome sight in the spring woods. I found a little bundle of vintage Lilies of the Valley from the estate sale last weekend and thought they made a pretty display.
Speaking of which, here are the two sales I will be going to tomorrow morning. Don't they sound wonderful?! Anyone need a personal shopper? hehe.
