Deja Vu Vintage Market

 
 
My dear friends held a birthday party for me last month. Many of them gifted me with $$$$ which I saved for the Deja Vu Vintage Market. The market was fabulous. I wanted to share some of my goodies. There are still a few more, but I will wait until they are in their new places before I take the photo.
 
(It has been months since I attempted a post, so please bare with me)
 
 
My first find was this vintage photo frame. There is some pretty scrapbook paper in it for now, just to show it off. 
 
 
Here is a close up of the rose carving detail.
 
 
Next was a sewing machine drawer. I have looked for one for a long time. I found some on Etsy, turns out the vendor was going to be at the Market. She brought it along so I would save on the shipping.
I plan to paint it shabby white. Just can't decide whether or not to use chalk paint. 
 
 
Amazing detail on the drawer as well.
 
 
Another long time want of mine. A trophy. I told my DH it was for the World's Best Wife. I sure missed a chance to butter him up, I should have said for the World's Best Hubby. *smiles*
 
 
Lovely oak leaf and acorn detail on the handles.
 
 
Still one other score! My vintage scale. Was I on a roll or what!
 
 
You probably can`t make it out in the photo, but it says Made in Australia.
 
 
 
A few bits and bobs. Baker`s twine. Ceiling tile. Pretty silver spoon handle with a crystal attached. They were crafted specifically for bridal bouquets, I don`t plan on getting married, so it will either be a key chain or a necklace.
 
Don`t forget, there is still more.
 
I will remember this shopping bonanza for a long time to come.
 
*Smiles*

What great finds! I especially love the sewing machine drawer. I would love to find some of those to paint and use to store craft supplies. I see you are from beautiful British Columbia, lucky you!
