arrivals and departures

Easter gal created by The Vintage Whisperer herself, Magpie Ethel

This giddy lady stopped in for a brief visit recently while on a roadtrip to her new home. She was certainly a lot of fun to have around and I almost asked her to stay on indefinitely but she wanted to be settled into her new place in time for Easter. Plus her arm gets really tired holding that shiny bouquet containing the world's tiniest Easter chick. 



A huge thank you to clever vintage crafter Barbara/Oodles and Oodles for this little family.
There's three of them so that makes an Official Collection.

This family just arrived after their long journey from the East coast. As usual, Jr still has oodles and oodles of energy but Mrs just wants a hot bubble bath while Mr says "Where's the remote?" For now, they're staying in a cozy teacup while they look for something with a backyard. 

And Mrs is just a little grumpy as it's tax time and she is in No Mood. 
Not to mention she can't remember where she put that box of receipts. 


They just need a couple days to get settled.
Then they can help with a giveaway here later this week along with more peeks into Karen's house

Hope you had a fun weekend.

  1. That Magpie-Ethel sure does a dandy job, doesn't she! Your other little visitors are too cute.

    But even more appealing - is that your kitchen? Your studio? Where does that jadeite green cabinet live?

    Oh and I love the fabric on the white chair too. Well, I've got to go back and look at that hoosier some more. I love it!

  5. Glad to see Ms. Giddy bunny looking so happy and ready to hop off to her new home. I love the little family from Oodles and Oodles. Am sure they are happy in their little teacup home until they finder roomier digs. I have a necklace with one of those little figures that I got off Etsy...they are just plain fun! I always am in a happy mood after reading your posts....

  6. Amy ~ Three of Laurie's wonderful Easter creations have also managed to find their way to Michigan recently. You've got yourself a real cute one. It was one of my favorites when I saw it on her site.

  7. I was going to go to work but I'm calling in so I can stay home and paint my Hoosier that shade of green. Hope the bubble bath works to cheer up that grumpy lady.
