Some high / some low .... and a cute purse!

I hit an estate sale which yielded some *incredible* finds! (More to come on that.) I'm developing an obsession with folksy paintings on logs. I have 3 to date and think I'll hold on to the until I can fill an entire wall. I also scored a silver bowl with stags heads (sadly, one is injured and lost an antler, making it more unique! Gimpy Stag Bowl, anyone?). Another find is a Baptist Church commemorative plate from Cumming, GA. Also, a weird cafeteria tray with seemingly decoupaged butterflies? Yes, please!

But, the most remarkable find of the whole venture was this crazy neon serigraph by Sister Corita Kent, a nun who made pop art. For real! This is actually pretty collectible, but I'm going to have a hard time convincing myself to part with it!
