One Sale, One Find

 I only had time for one sale this weekend and it was the second day, but you never know.  There was just one treasure to be had but so sweet it made the short drive over there worthwhile.  At first I thought it was a lace hankie and I think the gals in charge of the sale might have thought so, too.  When I got it home and examined it I realized it was a beautiful little Christening cap.

It was nestled on a pretty paper lace doily in its original box.  Those of you who are local will recognize where it came from   Meier and Frank was an iconic Portland department store until just a few years ago when Macy's swooped in and gobbled it up.  Gosh, I miss that store!
I have been outside cutting down crispy ferns this afternoon.  Everything is so desperately dry I figure I don't need to waste water on those guys.  Trust me, someday the ferns will inherit the earth.
