Sneaking in a quick note - Antique Mother of Pearl Button Hooks

I know I promised a look at the things that I bought yesterday but the van is still loaded. Why? Well, for one it's rainy here today.  And two, CG is home sick today.  I don't want to alarm him by parading a load of new stuff into the storage area.  (I usually get new additions stashed away while he's at work...shhhhhh!)

On the bright side, I did find the Mother of Pearl button hooks this morning.  They've been eluding me all week.  I've just listed them on etsy and wanted to give you a chance to view them first.  I love Mother of Pearl; it's like standing outside in the midst of the night looking at a full moon. The glow is mesmerizing.

These old button hooks make wonderful gifts for a bride.  They also look great on a vanity and are delicious in  a Gustavian Gray room.  Enjoy!

  4. Hi
    You cracked me up about your boys! You have to remember James is the only boy and has 7 sisters! Poor guy didn't have a chance. He definately has a feminine side. But not too much if you know what I mean.
    You have a new look here... I thought I was at the wrong blog :)
    Hope you have a wonderful day... it is supposed to be warmer today, hopefully!
    Blessings
    Rebecca
