MY WHITE WEDNESDAY # 1

WOW MY FIRST WHITE WEDNESDAY!

That's all I could think of all day. I was early in the office this morning and quite late leaving, no lunch break just to make sure I'd finish all I had to do in time to go home and start working on my FIRST White Wednesday... well, with this EST, EDT, GMT and all I'm still perfectly in time, aren't I?
It has taken a lot of preparation - pictures taken by the dozens, never being happy enough with the final results. Plus I still have problems understanding in full all the features of my digital camera hence often times my photos didn't turn out properly - either blurred or with the wrong light. Also, I guess I felt my entree into the weekly White Wednesday appointments should be somehow grand, in order not to disappoint the hostess of this wonderful event.
Looking through the amazing past White Wednesday posts from Kathleen and all the other participants I was hesitant and doubtful on whether my pictures would be up to the charm and great style of the pics shared. All of them are so chic! Mine might turn out to be only shabby LOL! Well, I'm still hesitant and doubtful but I enthuse over the thought of partaking in this special event. I know I'm going to love it.
Thank you for hosting Kathleen!

So all I can say is "HaPpY WhItE WeDnEsDaY" to ya all.

MERCATINO DELL'ANTIQUARIATO PARTE II - I MIEI FORTUNATI ACQUISTI

Ecco ciò che sono riuscita a portare a casa. Begli oggetto ma cari - e, per rendere le cos ancora più difficili, anche la mia adorata figlia adolescente ama gli asciugamani antichi, i centrini, i coprivassoio e quant'altro di simile. Non ho avuto altra scelta che regalarle una tovaglietta da thè con il monogramma ed un paio di raffinati polsini di fine pizzo di cui si era follemente innamorata. Assolutamente da avere... giudicate voi stessi.
Uno speciale ringraziamento alla mia modella preferita, mia figlia, che ha posato con grande pazienza e grazia. TVB Marti! Y

FLEA MARKET - MY BEAUTIFUL EXPENSIVE FINDS
Here's what I proudly brought home. Nice but expensive - and to make things even worse - my teenager daughter also loves antique towels, doilies, tray cloths and all the like). I had no choice but buy a monogrammed teatowel she had deeply fallen in love with and a pair of fine lace cuffs: absolutely a must have - see for yourselves!

Special thanks to my favorite model - my lovely daughter - who has sat quietly with great patience and grace! YYY
