Here is the 'something old'A Vintage Silver Tea Set


Bought the velvet and sequined jacket
right off of an antique store mannequin the other day
for a mere $29. So it's old, but also NEW ~ to me : )

It fit me perfectly but the velvet skirt that goes with it

is way too small for me ~ or my mannequin ~ and will have to be re-purposed!

-
Here is the shop's mannequin wearing the jacket before I nabbed it.

and what a lovely crisp white dress,
photographed in a local antique mall

and now for the something

Oh Precious Baby Girl

( I love you )

My heart dances a melody of joy whenever I see her,

hold her, think of her, or watch her mommy and daddy love her,

and when my dear husband holds this tiny bundle from heaven

so lovingly in his arms

~ our daughter's daughter ~

beautiful gift from God
