vintage finds | five circles on a tray

at oddest times there's music streaming through this head of mine, and then some. you don't wanna know. anyway, 't 's been a full moon, that i've tried to capture on the digital, but a mean lens just won't do. onwards and forwards. now i did come across this cute setting. 

the wooden serving tray i'd seen a few times already, it just moved from spot to spot in the thrift store. until now, that is, them geese (if that's what they are) cranes are flying in this our house now! the tiny vintage crochet circly bits will go into a project.

the toile de jouilly lamp shade? well, we all know where lamp shades go. hey-dee-ho and sophie's open for the day.

    Great finds Wolfy, sorry it's been so long since I've stopped by to say hello, not much time these day's.

    I love that tray with the cranes and who doesn't like a pretty lampshade.

    I agree with everyone else, great photography. I can't wait to see your house once all the renovations are done with all of your lovely bits and bobs.
    I will join you this week drawing...it is something that doesn't come easily, which is the reason I want to do it.

    When I was young, toile de Jouy was something old fashioned for me... Now, I think it's beautiful and cozy... Who knows why! I like the atmosphere on your photos. Have a sweet day
