As if finding that doll buggy yesterday wasn't enough excitement for the week ... I woke up earlier than usual because I was excited about going to an estate sale at a mid-19th century farmhouse that was the home of a former antique dealer (can you sense why I was so excited?) I found a lot of great paper stuff, but was most tickled about the huge box and album of cigarette cards! They are absolutely beautiful! I also found oodles of postcards, old playing cards, ephemera galore and a beautifully rusted wire basket (like might be used in a barn). I just want to sit in the middle of all my treasures and bask in the glow. Can this day get any better?
