For Me?For Free!

My mother in law is in from California this week visiting us and finally getting to meet her grandson who is a whopping 6 months already,wow where does the time go?I'm fortunate that I have a good relationship with my mother in law as I often hear so many stories of "monster in laws".

She is an overall sweet lady and was kind enough to bring a few vintage items for me for my Etsy shop!One of the items I can't bring myself to part with and its this 1940's Corde purse that has a matching wallet.






The lucite closure on it is darling too.

She brought me a darling 1930s apron and some hankies that I need to iron before they make their way to my shop .I need another purse like I need a hole in my head but I just couldn't help myself,I mean when else am I going to have something so cute show up in my life for free?!

Also don't forget about my give away a few posts back!It is almost Valentines and I'll be doing the raffle soon!

  1. I don't blame you about keeping it! I tend to keep all Corde bags I come across- yet never use them, for fear of getting 'em shmutzed!

  2. Yes,I've always wanted one but I never see them in my price range so I told myself it was a sign that I had to keep it.A bit scared to use it though as it is in pretty darn good condition.
