I decided to clean my art room the other day, well it wasn't a plan but I found a great piece in my local junk store and that got me started. Seven hours later it was mission complete! I am going to share some pics with you of a few of my goodies.
This is the new piece that got me started.
A few new buttons on the same shopping spree.
More treasures!

Your treasures/bits and bobs/fancies and dear "stuff" are wonderfully beautiful. And your music today is absolutely the most romantic I've heard in awhile.
Your little cleaning adventure was worth the time you spent on it and I am so glad you shared with us.
Love you, Debby Doodle! And miss you lots!
Hugs,
Jan

What treasures in those great pics - and memories!
btw,just to let you know, Debby, I didn't include you in yesterday's list cos it was for recently discovered blogs & I've known you now -and admired yr blog- for, oooh, ages!!
Off now, so have a lovely day & in haste,
XOXO LOLA:)
I would love to go thrift shopping with you--the only thing is that we'd probably fight over everything :)
Your studio area looks inviting. I especially like the art piece showing the girl with musical notes.
Makes me want to visit and have a cup of tea while relaxing in your delicious atmosphere.
Debby,
I want to come over! I would go nuts, sorting through your 'play room'. You have some really cool things there! Ever picture I said 'Oh, I love that!' You've gathered some real treasures, & of course your own wonderful pieces. I could have some real fun Debby, but when I leave you better check my bag. I might have, oh some rusty cones, cabinet cards, bits of lace, some velvet strips (?) & a bit fat book under my arm. LOL Lisa
Debby, thanks so much for stopping by. I enjoyed seeing your fav things. Hope you have a great Friday, Theresa
Love this peek into your space and all your favorite things!
