Friday's Favs...my new old painting!


When Monticello Antique Marketplace had their annual anniversary sale last weekend I just had to go!
I had a gift card from Mother's Day to spend!  YaY!
Above is a little iPhoto collage of some of the goodies I saw.

I looked all around, not really having anything in particular in mind that I was looking for.
That's rare for me, as I usually have a running list in my mind of things to keep an eye open for.


When I saw this painting, I thought, this is it!
I love old barns, I love the European look to the farmer's attire.
I love the cow and the chicken.
So, I took it up to the front desk and had them hold it for me while I looked around awhile longer.
I wanted to be sure that I loved it enough to spend my gift card on!



And I did!
Here it is perched atop the antique wooden cubby I bought at Monticello last year.



I also bought another French mustard jar to add to my little collection.




Here's one of my other French mustard jars.


And another one...


Well, it's almost Friday, friends!
Have a HAPPY, HAPPY Friday
and 
a BLESSED weekend!

  6. The painting is definitely something that would have caught my eye. I love old barns. I also love your cubby shelf and all the mustard jars. That's a really interesting collection. I don't know that I've ever seen them before. Happy Friday to you!
