Friday Finds!

Today, we headed to Seal Beach to visit some friends. On the way there, we happened upon an Estate Sale. Of course, we had to take a moment to go in and see what treasures were to be found. We scored this awesome vintage book...


With beautiful illustrations and fonts in which to learn from. I do so prefer vintage work books to today's brightly colored & animated versions. They seem so much more peaceful to look at and focus on. And the illustrations and writing are SO much more... well, beautiful.



I also found this book...



to add to my Louisa May Alcott collection.

All for a mere $2.00. Which was grand, because as I went to check out, that was all I had in my wallet! Good thing I did not find more. Yeah for Estate Sales and vintage books.
