MY NEW BEST FRIEND

Hello Friends,

         I wasn't the only early bird at Tim Tait's estate sale today.
High Cotton  http://www.highcottonmobile.com/
         
A finally met Linda from Coastal Charm - Yep in the flesh!

http://linda-coastalcharm.blogspot.com/

I have been a follower of her charming blog for a few years and always try 
to join the fun at Nifty Thrifty Tuesday's.
Linda and her sweet husband have a booth at
Antiques at the Loop  www.antiquesatloop.com
 where I have recently joined.

If you not confused yet, Tim and his wife Desiree also own Antiques at the Loop.(That's another post)

Where was I?  Oh yes, I now have a new best friend.

I started calling her Sassy - Miss Sassy, check her out.


I am trying to contain my happiness
I am so thrilled to have "Miss Sassy".

Look at her, she is so confident, great posture.
This chic has a cute figure.





Yep she's a keeper!

I am on a mission to find display pieces for my
tiny shop and I know she will 
work esp. since she was such a good price
$25.00 - Nifty Thrifty Tuesday


No base, so I will be challenged on how to use her.

I can see gauze and old lace wrapped here and there
my jewelry will look great on Miss Sassy.
She will be able to pull it off.
Do you have any suggestions?

Come join me at a few parties.
 Enjoy the rest of your week, Kathy

  1. Kathy- She's a beauty! I wonder if you couldn't use an old hat rack of some kind as a support for her (as a base). I think she would be easier to "dress". I kind of like the industrial look she has! xo Diana

  6. Miss Sassy is sure a beauty. I had one like her a few years ago, but ended up passing her along to someone who loved her as much as I did. Sellers remorse set in immediately. Isn't it fun meeting blogging friends? Lucky you to have met up with Linda!!

  8. What a treasure she is -- and yes, so many possibilities because she has good bones! Even with out a base, just sitting on a table to display your treasures would be lovely.
