"WHAT became of all of this HAEGER??" you may ask...
...it was Carefully cleaned, wrapped, boxed, labelled and tucked away in ANY spare space in other rooms that could be found!!!
Contractor starts Monday a.m
It IS all good.

In conjunction with our 'Face-Lift'...
~The StarBurst clock went to the Dr's, and came back with a Clean Bill of Health, running like a champ and shiny as New!
~MEANWHILE... the tension lamp is on an extended stay at it's second 'Specialist' - verdict should be rendered next week.
ALL of this has left LITTLE time for 'the fun stuff'...
~but 'Where there is a will, there is a way!'
Stopped by the Co-Op the last week to 'FLUFF the BOOTH', before I left I went digging in one of the Vendor's 'box-o-gems' (A HUGE mis-match of jewelry in a tangled mess amidst 6-8 different boxes!! ANYTHING is .80cents each!!) I unearthed a sweet PANSY sweaterclip - but ONLY half - so I continued to dig...dig...dig in hopes of finding the other half...

| 2015 Sweater Clips (#5,6,7,&8)! |
I ended up finding 4 other Sweater clip halves and 1 COMPLETE!! ~Does the White one look familiar?
It is the missing end from a clip I found a couple of weeks ago!!
Remember this 1/2 sweater clip??
Went to TWO 'New-to-me' Rummage sales this week!!
~Neither one was anything to 'write home about'
~BUT they did take me to off-MY-beaten-path towns, in which I hit a couple of thrifts, which produced this FOUR LOVELIES!
(2015 VERA #2,3,4&5)!!
and look:
...one has it's original BUTTON!! (Yes, I did go Over my 'usual-VERA-price tag' for it!).
That's about my excitement, unless you count...
The morning I was cleaning out an old jewelry box that I 'thought' was empty. Upon closer inspection I found these two 'gems' hiding in the bottom back, under the felt lining - a TINY religious charm and a... a... Baby tooth?!
Okay, so that in itself was maybe not that 'extra-ordinary', BUT later that SAME DAY I found this at the seaglass beach...

Wow - big chances at your house. Can't wait to see the big reveal! As for the teeth....what on earth?!??!?! I am always puling out the drawers of those boxes at the thrifts, I just know I will find a gold ring some day. But, if I ever find a tooth - AIEEEE! Hopw the fluffing was good and you are selling, selling, selling!
So happy all the Haeger is safely tucked away. Changes and updating our homes is always exciting. Love that you found the other half of that sweater clip!
The optimist sees the shelf as half full. The pessimist sees the shelf is half empty. The junker wants to know if the shelf is for sale, and if it is not, how about the stuff on it?
I have learned all about sweater clips from your blog and have helped friends identify them. (One thought she had found some kind of messed up earring.)
I can probably ID that medal for you if you want, with a better pic of both sides. As for the teeth, not so much.
