Westport Ireland

It's magic, the land, the food, the vintage finds but mostly the people:::::


I am touring through Ireland- taking it all in, even though I've been before it's captivating , just like the first time


We started in Westport today touring the antique stores:::::


How sweet the buildings are, so very charming







Ohhhhh I really wanted this table, but how to get home?




My Travel buddy bought the full set of china, from the late 1800's

it is AMAZING



Here he is::: he looks like he belongs here



Ashford Castle, we have been calling it home for the past 3 days

It is truly majestic and surreal






one of my random artsy shots;)



everything looks so great against the green green backdrop of Ireland






Off for a hike through the forest, my favorite part of the day

Where the muse lives

I recently received the honor of placing my "wares" at the most magical place ever
Vignette's , where dreams do really come true for us vintage vixens
(my fabric softee necklace made with vintage remnants)
(soldered shadow box charms encase vintage rhinestones, over sized silk rose bouquet)
If you've ever been you most likely met and were charmed by Lori, who has cast a spell on all who walk through the door, she is a true gem-and has surrounded herself by such.
She is a muse to many and adored by all
saint medallion earrings with garnet

I made a vintage tape measure pin, thought it would be fabulous pinned on a hat .

Madonna paper mache earrings

Dolly head pendant on a chunky layered chain, vintage beads and chain, her body is a small corked bottle of tiny treasures
Old book pages folded to create a small wreath adorned with buttons and a very old clothspin;)
