Favorite Things Friday - No. 4

Gosh, where in the world is the time going???  I can't believe that the Sat after next, Han will turn twelve and then the Sat after that is Christmas!  Two weeks, people!!

Before I get to the features from last week's links, I wanted to share with you some of my favorite things from stuff I bought this week. 

There's a little shop down the street from my house that has a lot of awesome stuff.  There's a good mix of antique, vintage and new there and I always feel like I'm on a treasure hunt when I go in.  It'd been awhile since I'd last gone and so I decided to stop in today and see if there was anything that tickled my fancy.  There was!  I paid quite a bit more for this than I normally do for the things I resell, but I think it was worth it, even if it doesn't sell.

Next up were these awesome frames and wall hangings that I got from Good Will for $5.50!  I'm in the middle of a master bedroom makeover and I'm still trying to decide if I want to paint all of these and hang them in a group somewhere in there.  

For a few years now I've been collecting milk glass whenever I find it.  For the most part, I usually only find bud vases.  I have a few pieces that are a little more unique, but I've still not found anything really all that great up until this week.  I found this little gem at Good Will for $1.50. 

bad photo.. sorry

Next up are these totally adorable crocheted baby shoes and booties that I got for my niece, Ava.

Aren't those the cutest???  They from the Etsy shop, handmadebabylove.  She's got plenty to choose from so head on over and take a peek. 

Now on to the two features from last week.

Beautiful Christmas mantels like this one from Restoration House make me wish I had a fireplace.  This is just so pretty and really, it could be used all winter.

Next up are the delish-looking "Oreo Surprise" Cupcakes made by Jocelyn over at Inside BruCrew Life.  A freaking cupcake with an Oreo truffle inside!! Oh my!  If you've not ever had an Oreo Truffle, you don't know what you're missing, and I imagine that I don't know what I'm missing having never had these cupcakes.  Ooooh, I'm so hungry right now! 

 look at this!!
