VINTAGE 1940's BRIDE
I know its been quite awhile since i have posted, but it has been a busy summer getting stuff purged from the house and working on fixing up things around here. But it is now winding down for this year. If you want to keep up with all that it is posted on my other blog. Check it out anyway and see what else we have been doing. LINK to blog : http://grammyandthepapillonprinces.blogspot.com/
The first 3 pic's are of some vintage green I found while packing up and purging out! An old green step stool, a vintage White House Vinegar , really pretty, vintage hand crochet doily, vintage hanky from Pairs, vintage green wood handle cookie cutters, and vintage Boonton bowl, (Melamie). Fun things. I think I will keep them for awhile. I want to open an Esty store maybe I can sell them there. I will post a link when I get it open, wont be till winter when I get to FL.
The little pink bride book I found last week at a yard sale, I really don't buy much anymore but this was to sweet to pass up for $1.00! Back in the day like when I was first married, there was something in most towns called "The Welcome Wagon" .When someone moved to town, got married, had a baby etc etc, The Welcome Wagon lady would stop and pay a visit, and bring you all kinds of goodies from local businesses, and such. Some things would be gifts and some coupons. This little book I found out after getting it home and taking a look was one of those items. I think. It was to aid you in your wedding needs with what they called their Bridal Secretary and her services. Its full of all things bride and wedding. Like a wedding planer of today I guess. It is sooooo cool, I am not sure what I am going to do with it. Maybe an Esty thing.
The book is from Livingston's in Youngstown OH. Not sure if they are still in business or not. Don't think they are. This issue was dated 1949 and was the 3rd printing.
Blessings to all
That's all for now thanks for the visit

  6. I remember the Welcome Wagon lady who visited when my family moved to a new town and house. (I'm sure I would have forgotten her if she hadn't been the mother of one of my friends and lived only a block away.)
