I stumbled across your blog just a few days ago and haven't been able to tear myself away. So delightful. I look forward to your new posts.<br /><br />Love from ST Helens, North West UK xxVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11157669011523151634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-76920670771802744902009-04-30T07:17:00.000-07:002009-04-30T07:17:00.000-07:00Hi ladies, first off thank you each very much for ...Hi ladies, first off thank you each very much for your lovely comments! Secondly, my apologizes for taking a little while to reply. My husband is headed off on an overseas business trip in a matter of days I'm insanely busy at the moment helping get him ready for that. Until a few minutes ago, I hadn't even turned on my computer on since Tuesday morning - yikes! <br /><br />@Katie, that's true, many older titles certainly did resemble law books (or the like) in the starkness of their covers. I think there is a certain sort of elegant beauty is such covers, but definitely see how they might not excite younger readers. Certainly amongst my siblings and I, I was the only one who cared an ounce about older books when we were growing up. How awesome though that you now adore vintage books!<br /><br />@Just A Gal, well aren't you just the sweetest thing! Thank you so much, as soon as I wrap up here, I will zip over to your blog at once to see what sort of kindness you have bestowed upon me. Thank you you!!!! (I adore the smell of older books too, and luckily I'm not too allergic to dust, so I can usually rummage for second hand book treasure sans sneezing ;) )<br /><br />@MissRedLips, what a beautiful thing to read, thank you very much, honey! I definitely think that we are vintage soul sisters, as I'm in love with all of your posts and definitely agree that we seem to share a lot in common! (BTW, I absolutely adore your recent post about adding retro dazzle to your decor...those phones have me swooning at the knees!).<br /><br />Again, thank you each very much for your wonderful comments - I hope you're all having lovely, and less hectic (than mine) weeks ♥Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-25298497837172992292009-04-28T17:02:00.000-07:002009-04-28T17:02:00.000-07:00jessica, i think we our soul sisters! each post i ...jessica, i think we our soul sisters! each post i read of yours I find myself saying "me too!" or "that's exactly how I feel!" and this one is no different... I am the same way with old books. i feel like beyond the clothes and hairstyles, I'm really stepping into that time period when I open a vintage book.MissRedLipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14648495332650644716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-74805488330848206192009-04-28T11:37:00.000-07:002009-04-28T11:37:00.000-07:00I am always heading to the older books and the use...I am always heading to the older books and the used book stores...

Now I appreciate them and get excited as to what I might find inside!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
