The UnBlogged

Posts here on Cherish Toronto were very sparse during the month of December, and although I could use the holidays as an excuse, I think it was more a case of blog fatigue. Some days it's tough to come up with something that readers will find interesting. Today I've compiled a post of a few of the little things that I've been up to during the past while.

In late November my sister and I attended the One of a Kind Christmas Show & Sale. In what can only be described as a Christmas miracle, I actually went home with money in my pocket. The one thing I couldn't resist was this sweet Mountain Peaks mini basket from Alison Lovell:


In early December, I entered a giveaway on the Style at Home blog for a Panasonic Lumix Camera prize pack, and I actually won!!!!!! Hopefully this will lead to even better photos on the old bloggy blog:


One of my favourite past times is thrifting. Frequent visits to my local haunts Value Village, Goodwill & the Thrift Store have turned up some pretty awesome finds recently:

Vintage Cream & Sugar Set ($3.00)

Ornate Dart Mirror ($19.99)

Jan Korthals Cityscapes, 1965 ($15.00/pr)

Westminster, London

Tower Bridge, London

Vintage Vinyl Covered Footstool ($4.99)

I passed the little footstool over to Staci at Switch Studio,
and she recovered it with a neutral foil printed linen:

And of course, there were great Christmas gifts!! My Mom spoiled me this year with a fabulous footed glass bowl, and Celerie Kemble's latest tome, Black & White.

It's been great catching up!! See you back here tomorrow!!
