Something Old Something New

 

 

Hello from Stress City, USA.  Trying to stay calm but it just occurred to me that our daughter’s wedding is just over eight weeks away.  You may or may not know this is Destination Wedding and we will be traveling to Mexico.  Two weeks after our return we are having a

Fall Wedding Reception.

 

Enter Vintage Finds, please…..

 

These white urns were all Thrift Store finds

As well as this Silver Champagne bucket

and the sweet little vintage bride and groom

 

Lots of silver trays have been located

Some were from my own collection

and lots are thrifty finds

Pictured below is a GORGEOUS large punch bowl with tray and ladle.  Yes, we are old fashioned and plan to serve punch.

My daughter found this at a neighborhood garage sale a couple of years ago, but passed it by. It was $50.

Last summer the same lady had it on her sale again for $50.  Angie called me to tell me it was still there.  Of course I was interested loving silver the way I do!

She asked if I wanted to go in on it with her and by the way, could I please store it at my house! LOL!  We got it for $40 and it’s beyond beautiful!

I have recently been pulling out things we may use for the reception and have just started my piles on the guest bed.

The tray is something new.

 

Please don’t make me unwrap the punch bowl to show you closer. :) The nice lady at the garage sale had it all wrapped in Saran to keep it from tarnishing. 

In this picture above you can see it a little better.

 

I can’t share too many details just yet but I will say the reception

will have a Vintage Flair and my daughter and I are giddy with excitement!

 

Today I’m joining Rhoda over at

Southern Hospitality for Today’s Thrifty Treasures.

 

I am also participating at Debbiedoos Party.  I just met Debbie so this is my first time to join in.

 

 

I may not be able to post as often as I would like as we are really busy with last minute showers, parties, and wedding/reception details.

I hope you will continue to stop by 47th Street for visits as I share other things that are going on too!

We are thinking Fall around here

Are you?
