Nice birthday wishes met me as I got home today! Thanks to Sophie, Clara and Lily. You are the best neighbours. @ebick13 #neighbours #kidsart #happybirthday

We are on mandatory lockdown here in Ontario. My day job is deemed essential but my vintage booth is shuttered for a few weeks. I just visited and took some photos. Any of the items in these photos are available for porch pickup or shipping. Let’s flatten this curve, Ontario and remember to support your local resources so we can all emerge from this. #ontariolockdown #vintageresale #vintageforsale #sixpenceoddities #sixpenceodditiesonetsy #sixpenceodditiesatlouislime #louislime #bluemountainpottery #vintagecat #vintagetins #bmp #canadianpottery #ingersollontario

Tomorrow is gonna hurt! Back to work after 10 days of holiday. I have slept in, puttered, painted, cooked, snuggled and done whatever I want. It has been lovely. Here’s to all the great things about 2020! #backtowork #sleptin #backtotherealworld

Today’s prompt for #merlesvintagechallenge is Tins. This #souvenirofcanada #greydunn #biscuittin has been around since 1959. It celebrates the Royal Visit of #hrmqueenelizabeth #queenelizabeth #princephilip for the open of the #stlawrenceseaway #collectortin #sixpenceoddities #sixpenceodditiesonetsy @thisismerlesworld

Coming up next on my Etsy Shop! I love these guys but can’t keep it all, right!? These amazing stylish salt and pepper shakers are by Beauce I believe. They are simply marked Canada on the bottom. There is a significant repair on one but the shape and style is so mid century and sleek. I hope a collector will find them from@my post and offer them a good home! #beaucepottery #canadianpottery #catpottery #madeincanada #midcenturymodern #vintagecats #clay #beuce #canadianpotterycollection #canadianpotteryforsale #canadianpotterygifts #whiteclay #corkstoppers #sleekdesign #sexycats #catsofinstagram #mcmdecor #sixpenceoddities #sixpenceodditiesonetsy #rarepottery

Today’s prompt for #merlesvintagechallenge is Candy Bowl. This #milkglass #westmorelandglass #footedcandydish #oldquilt #liddeddish #vintagemilkglass #candydish is going up on my #etsyshop later today!! #sixpenceodditiesonetsy #grannychicdecor #grammychic #milkglassdecor #milkglasscollector

Look at this proud creature! I sell these pheasant panels and a buyer sent me these photos of her finished product! Thanks to @karensleegers - a beginner sewist for sharing! She #nailedit for sure. You may have to find another project to keep expanding your sewing skills! #merrychristmas #happynewyear #cranstonvip #stuffedpheasant #diysewing #sewingpanel #vegantaxidermy #sixpenceoddities #sixpenceodditiesonetsy #sewingproject

I had big plans to get lots of stuff listed on Etsy this week- I finally did a few today. I had a great year in sales for my little side hustle and want to kick it up again for 2021. As you can see from these photos, I have not really chosen a lane for my tastes and offerings! I guess I chose my name well even though I realized it sounds like I am saying Sex Pants Odyssey! #shrugs #namasteinyourlane #eclectic #sixpenceoddities #etsyreseller #vintageresale #oddities #goals #thanksforfollowing

Start a home based resale business, they said. It’ll be fun, they said!

Thanks to all the small town essential workers who have kept things functioning in Ingersoll this year! Lots of familiar faces here.

This may be my last preChristmas shipment. This sweet bovine is enroute to California. #vintagesaltandpeppershakers #lavender #vintagecow #sixpenceodditiesonetsy

We are going Grey here in Ontario in an effort to tackle rising Covid19 numbers. Louis Lime Vintage will be open Wednesday from 11:00-5:00 if you want one last chance to visit my booth before Christmas. I will be posting photos and sale offers over the lockdown and I can arrange a porch pickup or shipping! Thanks for following my page and I wish you all a fulfilling and peaceful holiday season! I look forward to hearing about the silver linings of this modified Christmas.

Shop local- more important this Christmas than ever before. I hope these charming old Hardware Stores are always a part time of the retail landscape in rural Ontario. I think I could write a Christmas movie with this Ingersoll landmark as the location! #mckims #christmasmovie #homehardware #oldhardware #reddoor #oxfordcounty #smellofhardwarestores #homeofthehandyman #shoplocal #tourismoxford #mainstreetontario #familyrun #whereeverybodyknowsyourname #backdoor #runningdowntheramp #nostalgia #memories #hardware #localcharm #smalltown #smallbusiness

Sold today on Etsy! What a great item to sell today. It is the largest box in my inventory. This lampshade has a nice warm glow and will be nice for a cold winter at home. #soldonetsy #sixpenceodditiesonetsy #missionstyle #micalampshade #warmglow

I thrifted myself the same gift I was delighted to receive at age 8! #monchichi #playwithmemymonchichi #furrylittlefriendlymonchhichi #salvationarmy #thrifted #iamvintage #70skid #80stoys

Here is another interesting Nativity Scene from my own collection. This one is art glass and very stylized. #nativityscene #madonnaandchild #artglass

I love an unusual Nativity depiction. This one is based on a bronze sculpture by Canadian Artist Timothy P Schmalz. I went down a rabbit hole to find out more and his amazingly human bronze masterpieces grace cathedrals and parks around the world. He is based in St Jacobs Ontario! One of my favourite things about thrifting is that it opens my eyes to new things and leads me down different research paths. #whyithrift #aquietmoment #timothypschmalz #christiansculpture #canadianartist #stjacobsvillage #nativityscene #bronze #replica #christmasstory #jesusmaryandjoseph #catholicart #bethlehem #bronzemonument #notforsale at this point! It is staying with me for Christmas 2020! Show me your interesting nativity pieces and look up this Canadian Art Master!

One silver lining of these lockdowns is rediscovering the joy of shopping local. I picked up my #grandprize #olangboots today from @adenfootwear_ and met the charming Anastasia. I ended up purchasing an awesome pair of moccasins while I was there and have started my summer wish list for replacement Birkenstocks. They stock all my favourite brands and I will never order them online again. Aden Footwear & Fashion #woodstockontario #shoplocal #adenfootwear #shoes #boots #christmaslist #shoesforchristmas

Sold overnight: I am sending out my Big Ben Westclox Repeater Alarm Clock to a new buyer. I hope they love it as much as I do! As is, it is not a reliable timepiece but I believe it can be cleaned and adjusted. #tulipclock #bigbenclock #redclock #vintageclock #westclox #vintageclock #vintagealarmclock #sleek #mcmclock #atomicstyle #atomicstylelounge #sixpenceodditiesonetsy #sixpenceoddities

Need a little stocking stuffer? I have some cute Salt and Pepper Shakers on hand. 10$ a set with deals for multiples. Hit me up for more info. They can be shipped or picked up in Ingersoll. I will make sure they are in nice boxes if you wish- all ready for wrapping!

I have bought and sold many many salt and pepper shakers. So far this is the only set I plan on keeping. As far as I can tell, they are opium smoking, fez wearing dodo birds. Weird! Perfectly weird. #saltandpeppershakers #vintagesaltandpepper #japansaltandpeppershakers #dodobirds #fez #opium #pipesmoking #birdsaltandpeppershakers #vintagekitchen #dodobirds #sixpenceoddities #sixpenceodditiesvintage

My Ceramic Christmas Trees. The big one was made by my grandmother at the nursing home of her mother. They had a ceramics workshop at the home in London and we received piggy banks, scrubby frogs and toothbrush hippos for every holiday! The tree is the only thing that survived the 49 years since then and I am so happy about it. I just painted two new mini ones and dropped them off to be fired. My ceramic forest is growing! #ceramicchristmastree #vintagechristmas #ceramics #heirloom #christmastradition #colouredbulbs #covidchristmas #merrychristmas #coderedchristmas #sixpenceoddities

I bought this vintage Bath Salts Decanter over the weekend. I just realized why I was so drawn to it..... I am certain that in my childhood, in at least one Christmas Pageant, I played a Wise Man and I dressed in my bathrobe and brought something very similar to Jesus in the stable! #70skids #bestchristmaspageantever #churchskits #jesusinthemanger #bearinggifts #wisemen #bathsaltsoak #vintagedecanter #memoriesofchildhood #unitedchurchofcanada #putnamontario #churchplay #maryandjoseph #nativity #nativityplay

Oh SNAP! I got word that my red hot new boots are ready for pickup at Aden Footwear & Fashion in #woodstockontario These are sure to brighten my winter walks and keep me from wiping out on the ice! Bring on the winter weather. #olangboots #redboots #ingersollontario #thankyou #shoplocal #walkingthedog #winter2020

Well, that is that! It is all gone now! #ingersollontario #trainstation #demolished #railroadhistory #tourismoxford #abandonedplaces

Part of the old train station in #ingersollontario is being demolished. The saggy roof was hazardous. #trainstation #cprail #cnrail #trains #demolish #abandonedontario #viarail #railhistory #trainhistory

I have never had a Christmas Tree but I decided to decorate a chair this year. Beans and I will be spending more time at home than normal so I decided we needed some extra glow of vintage Chris Christmas lights. I think she really likes them! Every time I look up l, she is posing by our tree. Happy Holidays Beans! #beansthewauzer #christmastreealternative #smallspacechristmasdecor #apartmenttree #vintagechristmas #vintagechair #dogatchristmas #modeldog #pointsettia #happypuppy #sixpenceoddities #christmasspirit

I am pretty excited about the 2020 Canada Post Christmas stamps featuring the art of #maudelewis #canadianartist My grandparents took their two young daughters, my mom and aunt to see her studio in Nova Scotia. She sold them one of her paintings and my mom remembers that it was still wet! It is almost identical to the picture used in the Domestic Canadian postage stamp. #canadapost #christmasstamp #christmasrush #canadianchristmas #nationaltreasure #painting #wetpaint #novascotia #novascotiaartist #grandmamoses #sleighride #maudie

Who is going to have the coolest boots this winter? This guy!!! I won these beauties from @adenfootwear_ in #woodstock on the first real snowy day of the year. How is that for excellent timing?! #thankyou #shoplocal #olangboots @olang_canada @olang_official #ingersollntario #oxfordcounty #redboots #snowboots #winterboots #contestwinner #luckygirl #winter2020 #snowday Now I have zero excuses not to walk #beansthewauzer this winter.

Sold on Etsy: I shipped out my Vintage Jadeite Towel Bar yesterday. It is an awkwardly shaped item so it is double packaged and I am hoping/confident tgst it will arrive safely at its new home in California. I will be a bit nervous till I hear back from the buyer! I hope it will be a great finishing touch in a vintage bathroom. It was my score of summer 2020! #jadeite #jadite #greenglass #vintagepowderroom #canadapost #soldonetsy #sixpenceoddities #sixpenceodditiesonetsy #jadeitedecor #jadeitejunkie #jadeitecollection #jadeitelove
