BLUE MONDAY

Happy BLUE MONDAY TO YOU ALL!
Be sure to stop over and visit Smilin' Sal today and visit with all the other Blue Monday Participants....

Today I share with you another treasure that my BFF Vicki found for me! A lovely blue Cameo. The beautiful box says MORGAN & COMPANY and inside has the most beautiful Royal Blue Velvet lining!

I love that this vintage piece has the pin and the necklace fob on it. I wish I was a better photographer ( New Year Resolution #4) so that you can see better the lovely detail her cream face has.

Happy Blue Monday to you all...and please stop over at Smilingsally.blogspot.com, click on the bluebird on my sidebar to take you on a blue adventure!

Listed on Ebay

Well...it took most of the day to read the new camera instructions,get the pictures ( still have lots of opportunities there!) and to get some pink Christmas posted on Ebay! I usually use Auctiva so they were very slow today, or at least that is my story(and I am sticking to it) of why it took hours to get this done. I was in a shop and doing great there but decided it was just to much running so I am going to primarily base this from my home base...since I have started blogging my computer and I are really getting to know each other!
Please girls if you have ANY comments on what I should try or do differently PLEASE give me an idea! I have had to quit working full time and take care of my Mom and I need to keep $$$ coming in! So please share with me!

Off to Lake Michigan ....

My Boyfriend Jim and I are off to Lake Michigan today..well not really the Lake but off to Goose Island boatyard in Chicago where it is the sad day that the winter cover goes on the sailboat! It is a sad day for him as this is the official end of the sailing season,and means there is no more working on this little vintage 1963 Rhodes Sloop wooden Sailboat! If you noticed I called it HIS boat...maybe someday when it is totally restored...it will be OUR boat! There is years of marine paint slapped on this beautiful piece of vintage mahogany,and although I have tried to be of great assistance in the restoration of her that industrial strength stripper is not good for the manicure! Although MAYBE next year(yep we are CUB fans too) I will get to sew the new cushions,curtians etc...etc... with the total RWB vintage sailboat fabric I got. Much to his dismay this is a happy day for me,I get to re-claim some time with the love of my life,maybe and I did say MAYBE get to get a few projects done around here and to have manicures last a little longer! Oh geez...how can I reclaim the love of my life when we live here in the Midwest???? From sailboats to BEARS? Oh well....and please hope for us that it is not as windy here in the windy city as last year as that 25 by 30 foot tarp that is her winter blanket caused me to fly like Mary
poppins!
