A Day with Mr. Heart!

When blogging, I refer to my husband as "Sweetheart."
It seems that bloggers have a "blog name" for their husbands, so I've been thinking of a good one for mine.
Since my blog is Dwellings-The Heart of Your Home, I was thinking a good blog name for my Sweetheart would be...Mr. Heart.
This name fits him well, so Mr. Heart it is!
On Friday, Mr. Heart and I went to several antique shops and had such a good time.  Many of the items that caught my eye were a bit more that I wanted to pay, however there were a few little things I just couldn't pass by...



A Vintage Basket...$12



 Watering Can $6


 Sweet little Bluebird $2


 The pretty little pink flowers are from the roses Mr. Heart got me for Valentine's Day!


Now, to find the perfect place for these sweet things.
I'll share that later!


Blessings,

    That is so sweet to call him Mr Heart. I asked Don & he said just call him Don ...lol...not too original. You found quite a few pretty things.

    Hi,
    I love the name Mr. Heart.
    You really did find some very nice items. Don't you hate when you find something that you just love and the price is just crazy high???

    Hi Cindy, when I found your blog via Judy's Winter Blues Wed I immediately want to follow you. So sweet post with the bird. I must make a ceramic bird like it. You're SWEET. So you and your hubby plus would be "SWEETHEART" to your family.

    Oh Cindy Sweetie...
    What a beautiful share this evening. I love Mr. Heart and I so adore the items that you purchased on your recent outing. Mr. Country Wings loves to join me some times as well. (We have quite the time at Estate Sales as well. After 35 years we still love being together, laughing and enjoying whatever or where ever we are.)

    That blue bird is priceless, and I am afraid that the basket and watering can would have came home with me as well. Beautiful choices sweet one and I can't wait to see their final resting place.

    A gorgeous share and write this evening. Thank you so much for taking me along in your dreamy Dwellings this evening. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

    It's nice to see so many Hubbies sharing in our love of thrifting and junking. My husband and I have treasure hunted together for all the 27 years we've been married, and we still do it once a week. It's addicting! Your treasures look amazing, as well as your home. xoxo tami

    That's a sweet little bird. I have a basket that is similar. Actually yours looks like a vintage dresser tray. I think mine was a vintage floral basket. Nice finds!~Ames

    Such wonderful treasures, Cindy. I'm very fond of birds, so I would have to say that sweet little birdie is my favorite from this stash. ;)
