But on Saturday something else found its way into my heart. And home. This old Ball mason jar with a zinc lid and practically brimming over with colorful bobbins of thread. Blue, green, and purple. Perfectly me. So I bought it and carried it home.
And unwrapped it. And gave it its own little photoshoot.
My bobbin jar wasn't the only thing that caught my eye although I did practice restraint when it came to buying anything else. There was a Royal typewriter, which was royally priced at about $170.00. Rolling pins (yep, I have a few of those, too), and photographs that I may go back for.
It was fun poking around old things again. So, how did you spend your Saturday?

I'd love to go antiquing with you! I can't wait for the antique faire we have once a month. beautiful find Roban.
Beautiful find! I love your bobbin jar, and oh, how those typewriters always catch my eye. I wish they weren't so expensive!
What a find this was, Roban!
I would love to find an old typewriter, but I have not been able to find one for anything less than about $200, which is more than I want to spend.
This weekend was rainy and gloomy here in NY, so not too much time outside. Typical fall weather.
:-(
Have a wondeful day.
What an amazing find!! It is so perfect for photography & decorating. I love when I stumble across something special like that, it feels like a gift. Thank-you so much for the kind words on my blog (much appreciated!).
This is awesome! Would love this in my home!! My Saturday.... was really awesome and a bit stressful - I to have a 16 year old in the home - one that is pushing the limits to the extreme - sigh...... Wishing you a wonderful Thursday!!
These are gorgeous images. You've set me to dreaming. I think I'll photograph my Mom's button collection. How cool will that be?
