A Gorgeous Find.....

A very good morning and a Happy Monday to all of you!


Now for a little story.........about an unexpected stop at an antique mall where I found a little treasure :-) My parents had to stop by a store to buy a jacket. I noticed a sign for an antique store next to it and I could not resist going in. After meandering through endless stuff some nice and some not so nice.....I stopped to take a call on my cell phone. When my call got done, I noticed that I was standing right in front of  a set of gorgeous brass leaves on stakes. They looked lovely and the best part of it all.....the one I bought cost me only 3 bucks!! I could not believe my luck. I have stuck it into my pot at the entrance with my lotus tea light holders. Since the stake can come out it can also be used as a centerpiece on the dining table.

What do you think ......did you enjoy my story?? Now I have a  pretty yet inexpensive addition to my home and I am one happy gal!!

Very pretty and and very good find. Even I have been lucky to find some very beautiful and cheap things at some antique shops just by chance. It is fun landing upon something in a totally unexpected way.
The pictures too are very good.
Have a great weekend.
