BEAUTIFUL ROSE...in antique sheet music

1922 Beautiful Rose Vocal duet:

Beautiful rose, beautiful rose,

Blooming so sweet, so sweet and fair.

Beautiful rose, beautiful rose,

Your fragrance fills, yes, fills the air.

Queen of the garden come to my heart

There I will keep thee never to part.

Beautiful rose, beautiful rose,

Wonderful charm your color shows

Beautiful rose, beautiful rose, beautiful rose,

stronger your charm in memory grows.

All the world over you reign serene

Every one loves you oh perfect queen.

Beautiful rose beautiful rose,

Token of love you'd ever be.

Beautiful rose, beautiful rose,

gave you to me.

ARE YOU HAPPY?

Life is a search for happiness

and some of us

look all in vain.

You went to find your happiness

and filled my heart with pain.

Who kows but maybe you were right?

But I'm still wond'ring tonight.

If you have found your Paradise

With someone else

then I'm content

Glad that I made the sacrifice,

you know how much it meant!

I only hope for your own sake

You haven't made a mistake.

Are you happy without me near?

Are you smiling to hide a tear?

Oh, how often I've wondered whether

You have forgotten me all together.

Are there moments when you regret

That you broke your vow?

Tell me truly, old pal of mine,

Are you really happy now?

New Black rose purse.

I wanted to share vintage sheet music with you.

Today I purchased an orange box full, with hardly a peek.

What a joy to find such lovely pieces in color,

lettering and words.

Wish I had a piano

because I'd play them tonight

and possibly sing.

As I sort them into seasons they will be showing up

in the shop and certainly will share their

beauty on this blog.

enjoy

and enjoy a beautiful weekend.

Mayberry

Come hang out in Mayberry (state street)...We put the chippy black old Theater seating

outside to enjoy sitting under our 100 yr old shady trees.

 Maybe your waiting for a friend to show up,

or to use them to plop your Hubby on while you shop.

I suspect when I pull up to the shop today the Barber will have discovered

THESE are just right for him.

He's the Mayberry personality  type

Lives life casually

In fact he had a sign on door Monday...Gone fishin'

whatever that means.

He said it could mean anything.

Hours until after July 6th:

11-4

We'll be closed the following Friday/saturday before July 4th and the day after.

Check blog for any kind of day changes is the best in July.

Cause I may want to find out for myself what

Gone fishing means!

Sounds fun.

Destinations

While traveling in Utah this summer...put Just a bed of roses as a "must do destination"  we'd love your visit!
Today, our 38th wedding anniversary (of course I got married when I was 10) we took a quick get away to Idaho (yes- Idaho potato) last week. Visited quite a few antique shops, yes, quite a few, also did shopping for the store from the sweetest lifetime collector...called a buying trip.

Blue moon  antiques has been there 30 years, I found it over 20 years ago and I loved she had covered

every inch of space available. It's still that way.

although as we age we get fussy and put little signs all over the place.

Think this one is about doggies.

Forget me not antiques is a new fun displayed antique shop, basement filled too.

These two shops found in Hyde Park Boise Idaho there are outdoor

eating places, charming historic area. AND there is a cute BARBER SHOP next door!

In Boise this large chippy white painted house with lots of tents and little shops out back.

By the road eccentric wild, can't remember the name of the shop.

This place I'll call "Oh My Heck MARY'S...a picture worth a thousand words?

Inside looked about the same, only nicer stuff, priced HIGH and I

was frightened to death something with fur would come along and bite me.

Mary quite contrary lives across the path.

I never did see her. Just quiet son.

We did find a fun black display piece at Marys...I looked at Carl with those

hopeful eyes that our already full to the brim truck could fit

this large piece in.

Sure he said!

He's awesome MAGIC at loading my WANTS.

Yeah, off to Utah they come for our Fall displays

And in this shed I found Carl his anniversary present and He found me mine.

I will show you tomorrow.

Hope you can wait.

PRICES MUCH LOWER TODAY

If you love "projects" with small wood pieces and vintage linens/dishes

needed for the new design

and merchandise!
