🌸 Auction Win of the Week! 🌸

I couldn't resist this stunning hand-crafted faïence pottery set from Saint-Brice, near Cognac, France, created by celebrated ceramist Michèle Robin. Known for her traditional French earthenware, Michèle began her pottery career in the late 1960s and has spent decades hand-turning and decorating pieces in her workshop near Cognac. Each piece is individually crafted and hand-painted, making every set wonderfully unique.

Just look at those cheerful floral garlands, soft pink accents, and charming details! This incredible collection includes serving pieces, pitchers, goblets, egg cups, candle holders, a teapot, colander, and more. The handwritten signatures and "St-Brice Cognac" markings on the bottoms are a reminder that these weren't factory-produced, they were made by the hands of an artisan carrying on a long tradition of Charente faïence pottery.

One of my favourite things about vintage and artisan pottery is imagining the stories behind it. How did a beautiful French pottery collection travel all the way to a Canadian auction? 🇫🇷➡️🇨🇦

I'd love to know...

💐 Which piece would you grab first?

Today I finally had an asthma test done at the hospital…and after months of feeling like something still wasn’t right with my breathing beyond recovering from the PE, I finally got some answers. Unfortunately, not the kind I was hoping for. I’ve now been diagnosed with severe asthma. ❤️‍🩹

Part of me feels relieved knowing I wasn’t imagining it when I kept telling doctors something felt off…but it also means some hard adjustments ahead.

No more dusty estate picking. No more yard sale adventures in the hot humid weather. I’m learning that I can’t push myself the same way I used to, even when I want to. Atleast until I learn how to manage this.

It’s frustrating, emotional, and honestly a little scary at times…but I’m trying to focus on listening to my body and figuring out this “new normal” one step at a time.

For now, slower days, cleaner air, and giving myself some grace. 💙

✨ Tuesday Treasure ✨

I finished my $2 auction win wagon makeover and I’m honestly a little obsessed with how it turned out 😍🌸

This old wagon was tired, worn and forgotten…now it’s rolling into its next chapter as a vintage garden planter filled with flowers, succulents and cottage garden charm 🌿

It still needs its permanent home in the garden, but once that’s finished I’ll be planting a Black-Eyed Susan vine to trail up the handle and I can already picture how pretty it’s going to look 💛

Proof that sometimes the best garden decor just needs a little imagination, dirt under your nails and a second chance.

Monday Mug Shot ☕️

Today’s lineup is brought to you by the thrift store mug wall…

From cozy florals to quirky finds and vintage teacups, there’s something oddly comforting about hunting for the perfect mug. Tell me I’m not the only one who always checks the mug section 👀

Which one are you grabbing for your Monday coffee or tea? ☕💕

Good morning Monday!
2nd auction pickup was yesterday…small but mighty 😅

Remember when I said I wanted to expand the garden and maybe add a vintage wagon? Well apparently I manifested 'options' 😂 Now I have TWO old wagons to choose from!

One has that classic bright red vintage charm…and the other is already giving rustic garden planter vibes with the chicks & hens 🌿 Which one would you put in the garden expansion?

Also got some old card tables to help me in an upcoming yard sale 👍

Spent the rest of the day cleaning up gardens, hauling treasures, and completely wore myself out. Totally knackered by the end of it…but honestly, the best kind of tired 💚
