i leave tomorrow for my ten day trip. as i mentioned, i will go to the luckett store in leesburg, virginia and some other favorite antique places. before i go on shopping treks like this, i like to pull out my favorite things to see where i am going with my current tastes. this helps keep me on track with my purchases. i am definitely in a blue phase even though i will be forever true to antique cream. i actually think i will bring this little wooden box full of some of my favorite things and shop with it. can you see the seersucker flower pin with the brown button, i love it with the old box and the floral teacups. i have a thing for buttons. especially old wooden ones. the blue paint in the jar is from french general - a great store to make you feel like you are antiquing right from your own home! i can't wait to share what i find on my trip. have a great week!
