Flea Market Finds & More Black Bedroom

When I went to the Raleigh flea market with Jamie and Nick, I picked up some small little things.

Those things included a small pen drawing of Mozart or Bach's silouhette (can't tell which), two little copper buffaloes* and a small stone votive holder. Oh, and a Pokemon Charizard card (for free).. it makes me smile because we sometimes call Charlotte Charizard (and Sharpie). I have a feeling our future kids are going to have silly nicknames, too.

Anyway, yesterday I added my little buffalo and stone votive holder to a chair I have in our master bedroom and snapped some pictures.






This is the extent of decorating in our master bedroom to those of you asking for more.

* I love buffaloes. I was born in Boulder, CO home of the CU Buffaloes. My parents had this CU padded stool in our home growing up with a buffalo on it and I loved it. My grandfather also did his undergrad at CU (the cool desk one). So anyway, that's why I love buffalo.

You would love this buffalo necklace then! Well, it's a bison, but is that much of a difference? http://www.happyaboutnothing.de/epages/es114100.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/es114100_happyaboutnothing/Products/24_Ca_Bis_10

Love the flea market finds. Those black walls of yours make the perfect backdrop for vignette pics!

You take such great photos. :-) I had no idea that Charizard was a Pokemon name. My nephew Jack came up with the name "Char Zar" for my Charlie ... but now I'm thinking he was really saying Charizard, and I just didn't understand? Because Jack did love Pokemon ... Henry got the nickname "Heninator."
