FEATHERED NEST FRIDAY

Uncategorized

I love an old gold frame.
By themselves, grouped together
there is something so glam and fabulous about that
brassy old gold paint.
An old thick gold framed mirror is even better!!
I don’t find super fabulous ones all that often,
but occasionally I do bump into a beauty at the thrift store
The chipping and missing gesso and ghosting in this mirror
doesn’t bother me.
I love pieces that show their age & have lots of character.
This mirror is huge and I am absolutely loving it in it’s new spot.
It fills the space perfectly!
( I’ll share soon!)
I also found this dainty little cherub chalkware mirror.
I love it’s tiny little size and patina.
Have you found any fabulous finds recently?
I will be off treasure hunting this weekend
~if you are in the Northern California area –
there are some fantastic sales going on over here!!
is having an oh soooo fabulous container unloading sale this Saturday and Sunday
in Corralitos which is near Santa Cruz…
Oh. My. I have been just droooooooling big time over the finds they have
shared as they have been unloading!
Pop over to their blog for more information!
My friend Sandy at
is hosting Mes Amis in downtown Old Roseville

    Courtney I love your mirrors! That little cherub one is so precious! I only wish I had more wall space at my house because I'd fill them with antique mirrors! *winks*

    Thank you so much for featuring me this week! I'm thrilled to pieces!
    And thank you again for hosting this wonderful party! Vanna

    I REALLY wish that I were going to be in NC this weekend. But I'll just have to stick with my FL yard sales. Thanks for hosting the party. Sure wish I had something to share so I could join in. Maybe later this weekend…

    Loved your inspiration picks this week. I found a fabulous mirror this week also. Was going to put it in the booth but changed my mind will enjoy in my family room for a while. It has lots of ghosting and etching and it's round. xoxo Thanks so much for hosting this fun day.

    Beautiful mirrors…I love when they have ghosting too. I saw a tutorial on someone's blog once about how to do that and it looked so real, of course I can't remember who's blog it was. Great features too. Thanks for hosting 🙂

    Those are some wonderful chippy frames. I saw where one lady put her mirrors outside for the entire winter to 'age' the frames and they looked beautiful! Love yours! Thanks for hosting Courtney! Christie

    Hi Courtney. Thanks soo much for hosting! Have fun this weekend. I'm originally from Chico, Ca and when I was young we'd go the the Roseville flea market. LOVE it!

    This is the PERFECT almost fall weekend to go antiquing and thrifting, unfortunately, I'm trying to SAVE money, not spend it. Thanks for the invite! I'm now your newest follower, I can't believe I haven't ran across your blog before, and I LOVE your header!

    Thank you for the invitation and kind words about my wine labels. Your idea to use them on holiday wine gifts is great. I linked up and am now following. Thanks for hosting. Your blog is marvelous!

    Love your cherub mirror. I found one a year or so ago, but it was new, not vintage and shabby like yours.

    Just wanted to thank you for featuring my on Facebook yesterday and for letting me know. I don't "do" Facebook, so I wouldn't have known unless you told me. I will mention you in my next thank you shout out. Hope you're having a great weekend!
