Hooks Galore

Have you been to Laurie Anna's
Vintage Home blog?

She has a shop in Canton Texas,

which is only open 4 days each

month, on the first weekend of

the month, for Trade Days.

We were down there last Friday,

and I bought some more hooks.

I already have too many, but

I couldn't pass them up...

they're just so cute!

Just a metal tube with two rounds

on each end with numbers!

You know it was the numbers

that got me, right?

The bottom round has three holes

to screw them into a board or wall.

I thought they might look good on

this vintage board I already had.

I took off the old hooks when

I painted the board a while back.

The old hooks were too rusty to

hang anything on.

--Real rust--

Not fake rust like these...

Anyway, the board got painted a

while back, but it's still waiting to

get some dark wax and distressing

while I've been looking for new

hooks for it.

I bought some other numbered

hooks last Friday too.

Laurie Anna's only had them

with two big numbers --

Four Hundred Fifty-Six

and

A Hundred Twenty-Three

Odd right?

I bought two of each number for

another project I had in mind.

That night I was thinking about

the fact they only had those two

strange numbers, when it hit me.

OHHHHHH!!!

1 - 2 - 3

4 - 5 - 6

Yes. I was that dumb!

They don't allow picture-taking in

the store, but you can see her

shop, and Laurie Anna's lovely

farmhouse too, on their blog.
