PICKY...

Ruffles & Rust--my space..












Here are a few photos I snapped prior to the opening of
Ruffles and Rust vintage market this last weekend.

It was an amazing event and I am thrilled to be involved with all of these talented ladies (and gents)

Had a total and complete blast, there was so many wonderful things here..
I only wish I had some time to get out of my space and look around a little more than I did!

I was very busy..I appreciate each and every customer and new friend.
 Have a great weekend~

Tsunami fishing, a beach craft (as if) and a little more...a RE post from a few years ago..


First off, can I say I have the best ever houseguests/vacationers come to
That said, I would like to point out that they leave me treasures beyond treasures from the sea
(and some from their little doggies, but we wont go there)
Above photo, we have driftwood..all shapes and all sizes. Enough to start a lovely smokey campfire out in the back, we do it all the time..But I said to myself..self, what can you do with all the treasures? The folks thought they were neat enough to drag back from their adventures on the beach, but didnt take any home for themselves, so..I got a hot idea, made it up myself..ReALLy...not really. I started by collecting lint from the dryer and spinning it into twine..REALLY!
(not really)

I begged to use the old drill from my sweet man and spent the morning at Coastal Nest last Saturday morning drilling driftwood!
REALLY!
this is what I came up with..

Smarty pants, arent I..

Next up, sand dollar hangy things..
Dont worry, Ill keep you posted..
not really.
Im sure most of you knew that there was an earthquake in Chile..Everyone was warned to stay OFF the BEACH!!
someone didnt get the message..Actually, this was the day AFTER the warnings. I wonder if he caught any fish..No, I didnt ask..Really.
~~~~~~

And you can file these under No certain beach attire...
His mothers boots and sweats, no less...
The little lady and her pink cow-girl boots and green peacoat.


and I will round it off with the big man, perfectly equipped with Ipod, to not listen to his mothers ramblings, hands in pockets, perfectly positioned to NOT hold his old mothers hand..the porkpie, perfect for ANY occasion, according to him and his Olympic perfected
EYE ROLL.
god, I love him!
