oh, no she didn't! oh, yes i did!!!

greetings! we are up in lake geneva, wi this weekend. i just love it up here! just a short drive from chicago, can't beat it! although i would really like to be out in newport, rhode island with my family! oh well, next year for sure! plus, i won't wait until the last minute to "try" and purchase a flight at a reasonable price! the prices have gotten so outrageously expensive and i refuse to fly anything buy a direct flight if at all possible!

so lake geneva it is! ha! ha!

so did anyone buy anything at the JAYES sale event over at ONE KINGS LANE?

after 3 orders, a phone call and 2 shipping charges i am estatic to report i bought the following items:

super excited because these a going to be my new office accessories! at least for now anyway, we all know how i love change, LOL!!

i really wish they didn't give just a 15 minute window to add to your order once it's placed! ARGH!!! needless to say i'm not happy i had to pay a 2nd shipping fee but at least i didn't have to pay for a 3rd, lol!

sidewalk sales...

don't you just you love it when you're wrong!!! especially when it's in your favor! HA! HA! HA! after shopping on michigan avenue i  decided to head over to armitage in lincoln park. for some reason i thought the sidewalk sale was last weekend! well, to my joy was WRONG!

first stop...ALL SHE WROTE where i purchased this adorable small ROSANNEBECK tray for ONLY $15.00! the tray originally retailed for $40, but since there were a few scratches they ended up selling it to me for $15.00! SOLD!!!!

 i also bought a set of matching coasters for only $5.00! such a good deal i probably should have bought more!

best of all, i was there a few weeks ago and inquired about buying a plastic holder for my monogrammed [initals covered for personal reasons] PREPPY PLATES coasters below. glad i didn't place the order, lol!

i also picked up a few more boxes of christmas cards! one can never have enough extra christmas cards, especially ones that are WILLIAM ARTHUR! yup, 3 boxes for $20.00! HELLO!!!  such an awesome deal considering they retail for $32.00/box!

after leaving downtown i made a stop over in hinsdale to check out some fabric over at CALICO CORNERS. then i had to make a quick stop over at FULLER'S. i ended up purchasing this box to match my small fan vase and frame from GLOBAL VIEWS.

don't you love it when you find a good deal!

i know i do!

have a great evening! i'm off to the pool!
