California Treasures
The other day, I shared some photos of our fun weekend in California. Now for the treasures I found junking!
On the way to Old Towne Orange, I spotted a sign for a church lot sale, so we pulled in. For $2, I walked away with a vintage floral pillowcase and a stack of old books. Then we spent most of the day in the antique malls in Old Towne Orange. Here is what I found:
Vintage poodle wrapping paper, sequins, millinery, and bird pin.
Assorted ephemera:
We left Orange and drove to Fullerton to Gilding the Lily. What a FABULOUS store. Here are a few pics from the store:
And this is some of what I brought home - millinery, dresden foil, metal charms, ribbon, and mercury glass buttons.
But my favorite find of the day was vintage wallpaper!! Check out this fabulous poinsettia print.

I hope I get back soon. Gilding the Lily also offers classes. The projects look amazing!

Oh man...nice finds. One day the hubs and I hope to get to CA. I've heard about Gilding the Lily and it looks like all that I heard it was and you got some great goodies!

Wonderful finds. And I love that store. I try to go junking or antiquing wherever I go. Even if it is just hitting a couple of yard sales. I will post some amazing finds tomorrow that I found at yard sales last week.
Oooh, I would SO love to be able to go to those stores. They are so beautiful and right up my alley. Love all the treasures you have found. I know you are going to have a ton of fun creating with all these new goodies. :)
