The Collector. Part 4.

At the risk of looking like a crazy lady, here is my next collection. Oh deer, right?
They don't stay like that, I promise. I just gathered them all for a photo before returning them back to their various hiding spots around my house.

I have no idea why I started collection deer or when but clearly I've got a nice little group of them. They're just cute I guess. All of them are vintage, and were bought secondhand. Some are from garage sales, some from thrift stores, some from ebay, some from auctions, etc.

I don't really have much to say about them either, so here are some of the deer in their natural habitat around my home...
xoxo!

  8. I have a collection of Siamese cat figurines, most vintage some not so vintage, but they are all grouped together on a shelf. I should share a picture with you sometime. I admire your deer collection, very cute and impressive! I love all things vintage and anything from a thrift store/garage sale/antique shop or Estate sales. Wonderful little treasures abound all around us, they just have to be found.
