Best Weekend Ever!

This weekend we made a major double score!  First, we headed to New Albany, IN for the last day of the Preston Arts Center closing sale.  Everything was 40% off!  There wasn't much left since the sale had been going on for days, but we found some great fabric remnants, a paint brush, a fabulous old wooden farm-type table ($10---it's in rough shape, but ten dollars!!  Wow!), and, the ultimate find---three entire sets of vintage lettering.

That is, six cute red boxes of Chartpak dry transfer letters; two wire racks of Formatt sticker-type letters and patterns; and one wire stand of large individually packaged Cello-Tak dry transfer sheets.  I can't wait to use these!  I will also be selling some of them---I want to share the wealth of old school awesomeness!     

On our way home, we were amazed to see a neon "OPEN" sign in the window of Dreamlight Antiques, a place we've been wanting to go, but which never seemed to be open!  What a gorgeous store---and we found an incredible adjustable floor lamp with a hinge arm and HUGE shade. 

We brought this home as my birthday gift!  Yay!   It will be perfect for when I need lots of direct light.. which is pretty much always!
