Our guest loves to go antiquing which is fine with us. The last few days we have done just that. A lot. Thankfully, we all like different things which makes life so much easier when you’re all out for the hunt.

Meryl likes jewelry, purses, hats, and vintage clothing, which makes antique hunting easy when you’re not in the same field. Luckily that’s usually the case- everyone has their interest, and even though they might overlap a tiny bit, they don’t overlap completely.


Nevertheless, we influence each other don’t we? That is something I enjoy about antiquing with other people is seeing what they like hearing them talk about it. It opens my eyes to new stories, creativity, knowledge… all that good stuff.

For example, let’s start with this one. This fabric with gold and silk threads has very interesting shiny green bits. Do you know what they’re made from? Caught me completely unaware! I’ll give you the answer in the comment section if you guess.

Never in a million years would I have thought to make a collar, or a scarf out of gloves. But, Meryl did. The fashionista has the eye, creativity, and experience.

Then just like that a pair of armchairs screamed my name so loudly I jumped! One could dream in that chair, one could have a cup of tea in that chair. One could find a place for that chair.

But then this guy stood there with that gorgeous behind knocking me off my feet thank goodness for the armchair, I fell into it instead of him. Yeah, he had to come home with me – he was there naked – I had to bring him home – had to give him some clothes – now he’s standing on my dining room table, his beautiful butt refuses to get dress. Oh me.
