all my good intensions about using what i already have  are well intended but who am i kidding? i went to the flea market today with strict ” self inflicted” instructions that i was only shopping for a picture frame. i did find a lovely victorian frame-and a few other treasures.  the standout is the exceptionally  beautiful circa 1900 hand painted parasol (with a mother of pearl handle) sigh-my mantra-i am deserving!
