BLUE FIRKIN AND THANKSLIVING

THANKS-LIVING     TODAY I AM THANKFUL FOR MY HUSBAND AND THE FACT THAT HE SHARES MY INTEREST IN FINDING ANTIQUE AND VINTAGE TREASURES.

 I'm also joining Blue Monday for the first time. It's fitting that I join Blue Monday as blue is my favorite color. In the past I would not have said it was my favorite  color  but it seemed that everything that I picked out that I liked and was attracted to was blue. So it must be my favorite color, right?
So I'm sharing with you today an antique, well worn, BLUE firkin that I purchased at an antique shop when my husband, Les, and I were out antiquing. It is fun having a hobby in common with Les because it gives us more to do together. And because he is more "the spender" and I am more "the saver" I usually end up buying more when he comes along. I usually hem and haw about purchases and he just says, "If you like it, buy it!" ; ) And this blue furkin was on sale and fit in with my casual blue, mustard yellow, and cranberry red living room so it was kind of a no-brainer.

I also apparently don't know what STYLE of decor I like either as I've always said that American Primitive is not my style but now the things I'm picking out that I like are just THAT! Sheesh!

Won't you join my blog's "THANKSLIVING" series? I'm posting daily something I'm grateful for and asking you to share yours. Thanks!

I'm joining the party, Blue Monday,  at Smiling Sally.
