Five years ago, I discovered an enchanting woodland hideaway called, The Vintage Roost. (I first blogged about it here, and again, in 2009 here. It's changed a little over the years.) But, needless to day, we still experience a thrill when the gate opens and the handwritten welcome sign appears. Such times are much anticipated seasonal events around here, because it's only held several times a year; hosted by the ever-gracious Debbie Williams (and friends), who adorn the "shop" with amazing handmade items, vintage finds, and scrumptious pies and treats. The offerings and adorable vignettes change with the seasons, so there is always something new and inspiring to see. The main building is basically a small, converted shed that is filled to the rafters with glee, glitter and goodness. These photos were taken outside around the back of the building, where, as you can see, a wonderful surprise awaited around every corner. That adorable pair of vintage pillows caught my eye. Fishing anyone? That reminds me, and you'll understand why, when you see the new August bonus transfers. (Occasionally, I'll get requests for BOY themed designs--so, there ya go.)
