I came across this great little store called, The Papery, and scored big time. Several of the things I picked up were gifts, but here are a few things I kept for mwah!
If you've been to Victoria you know there are several antiques dealers in the downtown area (and probably elsewhere). I found these lovely teacups at one of the shops. Circa 1830! Rather scared to actually use them, but I'll admire them.
Book, books & more books. These were mostly for my man and the kids.
And some porcelain spoons from Chinatown. I see an appetizer party in my near future. I'd love to invite you all!
O.k. I have to include these too because they are so adorable. A teensy pair of sandals for Mr. Luke. Chubby baby feet. Love! (Unfortunately, the sandals were a little on the small side, so we passed them onto one of Luke's little friends.)
I also picked up a paper lantern from Chinatown. I'd like to try my hand at dying/painting another lantern. I'm thinking of going with a pink/orange colour scheme. What are your thoughts?
Lovely trip. Lovely finds. Blessed.
