Did I have a fun time last night. After seeing a pair of altered skates on www.antiquesinoldtown.blogspot.com, I had to go make some too! They had their Holiday Open house pictures on their blog. I always enlarge the pictures because their is so much beautiful eye candy. I love the ideas and no doubt that is one of my favorite blogs. I went to the Goodwill last night and picked out the oldest (vintage) skates I could find. I found one vintage pair. The eyelets to lace the skates were even rusty and chippy...so perfect. The other pair were newer, but in rough shape. Out with the lace and odds and ends and away I went. These are what transpired! I also have been working on pink sweater trees. My pictures don't do them justice as they are all glittered and you can't tell on my pics. Hoping you have a week of inspired creativity!

Pretty White Wednesday!
Running on very little sleep. I have one spoiled baby. Since he is my last baby I have been letting him sleep on me at night...and morning...and he doesn't want to sleep in his crib! I'm afraid he's a late night owl like me! I've wanted to get on a better schedule for the both of us, but he is making it hard!
I've been working on some fun Christmas trees made of cones and sweater material. If you want a visual then go to www.cherishedvintage.blogspot.com That is where I got the idea. I will post pics later when mine are all finished!
Some random white Wednesday photos from around my house...Enjoy!

White Wednesday
A little gloomy and dark here today. The kids are home from school (2nd day in a row), and I'm really in need of a break. I wish I could go junkin.
Just wanted to share my white Wednesday pics with you. I have posted my first pic as a space in my living room. I love my armoire...my favorite piece. I have a picture of a trike I spray painted white and added a basket and florals. I have a pic of the table next to my bed. The last picture is of a time I was set up at the flea market. This week I've been working on painting things white...in the process of making a chalkboard and painting some frames of a lovely set of floral prints I found. I should be making it to the shop soon to set up my Christmas decorations. If you live in the area the shop I'm at is: Cliff Ave. Flea Vendors/Flea Market, 3515 North Cliff Ave. Sioux Falls, SD (I'm dealer #99). They are open every day of the week (MON-SAT 10 am- 5pm) and (SUN 1-5 pm).
Thanks for stopping today!

White Wednesday
I am sharing photos today of more white pretties around my house. I love the time worn look of old things chippy. If it isn't white then I paint it white.
I also am sharing a photo of some small stockings I am working for to take the shop for my Christmas decor.
I listed a bunch of awesome vintage clothes in my Etsy store. I listed a few fun things on eBay too. My user name is chippy*cottage*charm.
Have a good week everyone!

Trick or Treat
Well...we had a nice day and evening for trick or treating. The boys had so much fun. McKale slept in the van the 2nd half of the evening, so Dad stayed in the car and I took the boys from house to house. We now have tons of candy...and I have no will power...so good luck with that. Hoping you all had a fun evening with lots of tricks and treats!
