New Treasures

Look at what my Deano found!
A Vintage Fan

It goes perfect on my favorite corner of the Living Room with all our other sentimental treasures.


The keys are from a Castle in Sicily. "Il Castello di Donnafugata". The custodian knew that Deano loved keys. The Dom Perignon bottle was purchased by my Papa' the last time he came to visit in 1994. I love the dark green of the glass and the label is the coolest.

$5.00 typewriter

Well, today has been the quite before the storm. Tomorrow it's time to start loading the truck and taking my goodness/stuff to Chateau de Fleurs. Vendors are coming to set up and I will keep you all posted.
Ciao for now
Rita
