What a year!

I cannot believe it is already Fourth of July week again! What a magical year this has been for Willie and me. We had the good luck of being able to celebrate our 1 month wedding anniversary (yes, I know...cheesy) in the wonderful Outer Banks where he proposed one year earlier. Unfortunately the weather wasn't the greatest but that did give us an excuse to exercise our shopping abilities. Once again, the Outer Banks antique stores didn't fail me. Here are some of my favorite items I saw.

These colorful glass pieces are just amazing!

 





This tiny blue vase (circa 1940s) was made by the Fenton Art Glass Company who is the largest manufacturer of handmade colored glass in the United States. For some more history go to: http://www.fentonartglass.com/history/
 
 
 Amazing electric coffee pot set made around the 1920s.


This Nippon hand painted gold plate made in the late 1800s was breathtaking!


These didn't look too comfy but how cool are these Victorian boots!
