Suit Cases at Sunny Skies

My friend Heather gave me these vintage suitcases Friday.


This is the inside of  the blackish blue one....


You know you have a good friend when she gives you an entire collection of something, but not only did she give me the suitcases.....she also gave me her entire collection of  Victoria magazines. I am so excited about these. I have hours of entertainment at my fingertips. 

This is a Waverly advertisement.

This table setting is gorgeous.... thank you Heather for the wonderful gift!

I also scored a major find that I had to share with you. I have always wanted to collect doorstops...but they are pricey. But I was able to get this very small one.


It was probably a bookend from what I have been able to find out....But I just love the colors and I hope that this is the beginning of a collection ;) 

xoxo,
Amy Jo

  2. Amy Jo...you scored the jackpot! Congratulations.
    A dear friend of mine once gave me her collection of Victoria magazines. I thought I'd won the lottery. Still have them all... 15 years later.
    Enjoy your stash. I'm sure you'll be inspired. xx

  4. Amy Jo, O, what a lucky girly you are. What a super friend you have too. I am so envious, as I look at those Victorias I don't have some of those covers, and I have a lot. You will get so much enjoyment from them. I re-read them ALL the time. Suitcases are really nice and look in very good shape. Love the doorstop. Looks like the real thing. I have a few but all are repos..You did really good and thanks for stopping by for a visit..Happy Monday..Judy

  7. Hi Amy Jo, what a sweet friend. The suitcases are wonderful and Victoria is one of my favorite magazines. I would be curled up on the love seat oohing and ahhing over them. My subscription recently ran out and I am going to renew it. Have fun reading. Love the basket. So vintage looking and great colors!
