What I Saw At Horton's.....

 I have to say right away...I love this old sleigh. It really looks like a Santa sleigh. You all know I love plaid. Look at those big bows. The buffalo checked wrapping papers are adorable with the brown paper packages.
I need to have Ted make a post near our walkway....well so I can buy that  hanging snowman. He's so cute ! There's some Merry Christmas  signs of tin, along with tiny fir trees, displayed on an  old shaving stand.
 So many things to chose from, in nooks and crannies through out the store. Something  so sweet about those twinkle lights.
 Here's an intricate designed chalkboard.  Merry and bright is written on it for now. You could write what you like on it.
 I really liked this pretty print of animals gathered near a birdfeeder.
 There's everyday jewelry, necklaces, bracelets and some pins.  Wearing a big skeleton key on a chain, must be in, as I saw a few displayed with clothing.
  Here's an area that looked to appeal to men. I have to go back to get one of those maps, they seem old fashioned. Now that cookie jar, might have been carried from the kitchen to the desk by a man .:):)
 There were old cameras, which I love. A teacup and saucer for Father.
 Every time I see this typewriter, I long to bring it home.  I might need it for a Christmas gift.  hehe.
A grouping of old rulers and squares.  Lots of deer head cutouts and  antlers  in this cabinet.  I will show more photos tomorrow.  Wishing all of you a beautiful Saturday. XO

    1. Jenn, Mrs. Horton can decorate so well. It's cute to see how she displays things, then you can do something similar at your own home. When I see what all they offer, it makes me think...Never throw anything away , it can recycled. :):) You would need a big shed to store that sleigh. :) Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  4. Horton's must be a huge place! I love all the Christmassy displays you photographed. I love the plaid and the sleigh, too. My mom had a small sleigh like that and I set it out every year. Nice cheerful post today and the typewriter makes me feel ancient.

  6. So many goodies at Horton's, Susie. I love red plaid also, and I've seen a lot of Christmas décor lately in red plaid. The "Merry and Bright" sign is cute, and love that saying. And that old typewriter is something else. You should get it before anyone does hehehe. I learned to type on an electric typewriter, but I really like those old ones, such a treasure.

    Wishing you a warm and cozy November weekend, Susie.

    love, ~Sheri

    1. Sheri, I keep seeing ads on TV from Pier One...they show plaid Christmas pillows with deer head appliques. I never did learn to type right. I type with just two fingers. LOL We have had fires in the fireplace this week. It's chilly. Blessings, love, xoxo, Susie
