I just spent two great days with my mom Galye in Salem! I took off of work at 3:00 Friday so that I could get to my parents house in time for us to catch the movie Julie & Julia. So cute by the way!! I didn't realize how funny Julia Child was. The movie was based off of a book that I may just have to go buy now :)
We then got up early Saturday morning to go to Molly Mo's Summer Antique Faire in Sublimity. The vendors were so great and there were so many cute things to look at. I bought a pink vintage apron and a table runner. I liked the table runner so much because it was made with blue and brown fabrics which I would like to start using more of together.
After shopping we have a nice lunch in Silverton and checked out an antique store there. But we still had more shopping to do back in Salem. Both of us want sewing machines for our birthdays this year so we went to a sewing machine store in downtown Salem to check out the Janome machines. Since my mom's sewing machine of 35 years recently died we have been sewing on an old Singer featherweight machine (which we love), but we are each ready for something with more features!
It was a fun two days!!!...Your table runner looks good on your table.

Hi Kristin! Yes, isn't Carol the greatest?? She is sooooooooo talented! I'm loving the blue and brown too. About 6 months ago we painted our Master bedroom mocha, and then have light aqua and brown linens and accents. I love it! Hurray, I am glad you went to the show and it sounds like you had fun with your Mom too!

Oh, if I didn't mention it... Carol has a space at Spencer's Alley in Salem so you can always check in there to see more of her beautiful things!
ReplyDeleteLovely post, Kristin. I adored the movie Julie & Julia too.
