Sirens and Saints in Phoenix, AZ...

Today was our monthly visit to the
Melrose area of Phoenix along 7th Avenue.
I always go with my good friend Dawn...
{Visit Dawn's blog}
 We always go to SWEET SALVAGE first, then visit some
of our other favorite shops including "Sirens and Saints"...

How sweet and inviting is this entrance?

It's like BLING heaven...♥
Pretty eye-candy!

I just LOVE this vintage chandelier...♥

The displays are so pretty...lots of 
vintage chalkware statues of Saints 
and the Virgin Mary adorn the shop.

This outfit is so pretty & feminine...

I never get tired of looking at pretty BLING...

A chalkboard door! Clever for extra shop signage!

Don't you just LOVE how the necklaces hang
from an old bed spring suspended from the ceiling?

More pretty displays... 

 Pretty burlap pillows...love these!

They have such CUTE things at Sirens and Saints!
I bought this hat and scarf from there...
{Yes, I know the patterns don't match ~ LOL!}
This photo is from our January visit...
Punkie, myself, and my friend Dawn.
{Punkie works there and is the nicest lady you'll ever meet!}

Sirens and Saints is located at:
4206 N. 7th Avenue
in Phoenix, AZ...

Tomorrow, I'll post photos of Sweet Salvage...♥

Thank-you for stopping by!!! xo

Free Vintage Printable - Art Deco Ephemera

Free Vintage Printable

This vintage image has many elements...
Use them all or for different projects...
For example, the three guys with
the old microphone image could
be used for a guy card, ATC, or
a guy-themed collage...

The lady is a nice simple image...
Very 1930's style!

The text at the top could 
be used for a nice sentiment...
I guess depending who it's 
coming from? LOL!

Cut off the "of my dreams..."
then the "Good Night, Little Girl"
would be a sweet sentiment 
for a sleeping baby girl...

Well, just some random ideas!
{Along with random ramblings...LOL!}
~~~~

On Thursday, I'm off to another 
adventure visit to Sweet Salvage with my friend Dawn...
I'll post photos for certain...

Many thanks for stopping by!!!

A gal looking at a bird nest...

Reminds me when I was a youngster, 
I used to climb into trees hunting for 
bird nests and bird eggs...

When I found eggs, I put them under an aquarium tank light,
in hopes of hatching bird eggs...never happened!
LOL!

One time, I found a baby crow and picked it up..
Bad idea! I don't recommend doing that!
Within minutes, it was like a scene from
Hitchcock's "The Birds" and crows were
swarming the sky and attacking me...

I put the baby crow down and ran 
like the Gingerbread Man!!! Whew!

Hope you enjoyed tales from my childhood...
Did you do crazy things like that too?
