Notecard Party~~Vintage Weddings

I love all things vintage and I have several old wedding photos that my cousin gave to me.  I know some people in these photos and I don't have a clue who some people are in the others!  I'm linking to Vee's Notecard Party so visit her blog and check out other postcards.



This "Just Married" photo is of my mom's cousin Madeline.  Madeline's sister, Stella, is on the far right.


I don't know a soul in this photo but the wedding took place many, many years ago judging from the fashion and the abundant flowers.

She's pretty but I don't know who she is.

This is the first time I've participated in the Notecard Party so I don't even know if I'm following the rules and doing this right.  Oh, well, enjoy the wedding photos.

Unusual and Unique Chick

I went to some yard sales this morning and I found this adorable cookie jar.  I don't bake and we don't have cookies in the house unless our grandchildren visit, so why on earth did I need to buy this unusual cookie jar?????   Because it is so unique and darling...that's why!  It just called out to me, and I had to have it! It is perfect for Easter decor although I'll leave it out all year. 

Yes, I'm adorable and I know it!!!!!

Tiny Things

Welcome to the tiny world of the Mini Time Museum of Miniatures in Tucson, AZ.  I took my grandchildren for a visit last November and the museum still had some Halloween displays up and they were starting to put up some Christmas displays.  Unfortunately my little granddaughter spied a big mummy and freaked out.  My husband had to meet us at the museum to pick her up, however, my grandson and I stayed and toured all the tiny things that were on display.  Click to enlarge for full detail.

This first photo is of a mansion study.  I can't believe how detailed everything is!  I just love the "miniature" world and never get tired of the skill that goes into creating such wonders.

This next photo is of a lady's sitting room/dressing room.  AMAZING!

The dining room is so elegant!

A doll house...not a good photo because I'm so inept with a camera.
