Hello & Welcome to LilacsNDreams Blog

Hello again everyone, and thanks for stopping by to visit, read, view, or with finding me by search & roaming. As you can tell I LOVE purple, lilacs, lavenders, etc. I also am seeing that I am not the only one that likes these colors too...Whew! I just love the pastel colors when they are put together that looks so vintage too:) 

Ok, speaking of purple, you need to check out a blog that also is showing purple on their blog page, and they talk about the color too. Great person, kind, and works well with everyone too. Stop by to visit Bargain Express You won't be disappointed. In fact, you will see some other places featured there that also like purple whether it is with their blogs, their websites, what they are selling, and etc. Very enjoyable, and please view when you can.

Well, another favorite place I used for my blog backgrounds also is having issues due to the volumn they have, and with photobucket. So, I had to one more time work with a blog background for another page of mine. As of now, I have all but 1 of my blogs done with my own background, or the simple ones from blogger. Much safer that way, and I will not have to worry about something happening to them as they are mine...almost mine. 

Last night we had some heavy rain, lightening, and thunder that would shake my glassware in the house. Got a lot of rain, with some flooding in the area too. Please pray for those who were effected badly with it that they get through all of the damages, and are able to continue living in their homes. We lost power here for about 2-3 hrs, and I guess our road was pretty much wild early this morning when hubby left for work. But, we were fortunate to not have the damages others had. 

Well, everyone, off to la la land for me. Been a long day with catching up, and trying to work on things. Not fully listing like I want yet, but I am working with it, and did revise another listing today too. Plus, I need to get some projects done that I started with too. Glue, paint, glue, paint, sand....all that fun stuff!:) Take care & have a great evening everyone. Till the next time....Toodles!:)

Vintage, Collectibles, Gently Used Treasures

 

Good Day everyone & Happy Hump Day! Wednesday is becoming a common time for me to stop by here & visit & add a few notes. Kind of like that. Sorry, been kind of lazy it feels like lately. I have spent more time at the computer reading, signing up with things, taking notes of things I learn, researching items to calculate prices for resale, and etc. I am happy to say that I do have my facebook fan page all set up, and I do have an address for that too. I can be found there at http://www.facebook.com/LilacsNDreams. When you get a chance stop by to visit there sometime. Also, a ning that I have signed up with I can now list a few items for sale there, and you can also buy there directly with paypal. That place is http://www.thriftyvaultshoppers.ning.com/profile/LilacsNDreams. The internet is such an amazing place, and there is just so much out there to visit, sign up with, join, read about, sell at, and etc. 

Another marketplace that I have come across just recently, and everything is free there is at http://www.addoway.com  When you get a chance you should see this place too. Bonanzle is still my main venue to sell with, and my larger amount of inventory is there, but when there are other places that I can try to sell at, maybe change the pace of things a bit, I like to try them out a bit. 

Yesterday I got to spend a little bit of time thrifting. I was with someone who does not do things like I do, or enjoys all of what I do. I still worked it to get some things maybe to do for shadow boxes, paint, etc. Tomorrow I hope to do a little bit more as I will be with my daughter, and when I look at things she likes to go her own way to look also. Ok, time to call it a night. Hope everyone had a great Hump Day!:)

 

Bonanzle, Etsy, All Things Vintage, Etc

 

Hello, and good afternoon to all that stop. WHEW! Is it cold here! I had to bring the space heater into the computer room to get some heat...no way I can stay off my computer:) Got a towel up on the window, shoved into the crack & frame where ever I could get it to fit, etc. It is nice & sunny out, but that wind!! Bbuurrr!! Our talks of moving are often thought of more during times like this. Hubby not help any when he rubs it in he is visiting in a nice warmer area...last week florida, and today/tomorrow into california. I just might have to get in that truck with him, and go!! LOL!

Not doing a whole lot right now. Read forums at bonanzle to see if anything new, worked on my facebook page...the fan one trying to figure it out....Facebook changed their pg again too! Also, working on this blogspot of mine to try & improve it more each time for all of you. Bear with me as I am not the computer literate type...I learn as I go by trial & error, or getting help from some. 

Hope everyone having a great day! Stay warm where you are, and hope the snow has quit for you. Stop by my booth at bonanzle, or check out what I started at etsy too. Both places, same name...you know...LilacsNDreams :-)

Take care,
