I want to insert here that as funny as it may sound, I will pray before shopping that the Lord will give me a little blessing. Just some little thing to make me smile.
The week before the party, I was getting desperate. What could I do? We went estating and the very last house was a huge 5 car garage sale in a very Spanish looking house. I told my hubby that I probably won't find anything here.
I WAS WRONG!
The whole garage was full of antiques.....many of which I could not afford.
Then hubby said.....what about these?
12 adorable vintage gloves and for a fantastic price! Then under the gloves was stacks of doilies....
We bought the items and I said Thank You Jesus all the way to the car.
I worked for 2 hours on Sunday making the tags. Each was different....then I tied the tags on the ring finger of the set of gloves.
The ladies loved them, I was thrilled and we have an Awesome God!

I love your finds. They are all so pretty!!
You are genius! And yes, that was a God touch to make you smile, and the other gals too.
Oh you are so right, I love my gloves, and they are so precious and special to me, plus the name tag is perfect and special too. I had such a good time. I'm ready for you to have another birthday. Hugs, Marty
P.S. forgot my pie plate, so we have a good escuse to get together soon for a fun lunch and outing. Hugs, Marty
Amen, I'm so proud of you Ceekay, wish I'd been there to get a gorgeous glove :) I prayed for the past two months for a recliner love seat - last week a church friend listed one on Facebook FREE, and it's now in my den and I'm loving it and thanking the Lord!!!

That's such a neat idea! I bet they did love it!
Now I've missed some of your posts I think...going backwards.
Ceekay, I would wear those sweet gloves to church, even now. It would make more sense to wear them , since we all worry about germs.:):) The little details on them are so cute. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
Those vintage gloves were indeed a Godsend!! Just perfect for your party favors. So cute the way you tied the tag around the ring finger! I'm so glad you gave us the details! God is good! All the time!!

That was a God breeze... Those gloves are so perfect, your tags are terrific. I know that the ladies will enjoy creating vignettes with their favor.
I just found your blog. I love it! It is wonderful to know God cares even about our "little" desires :) YES GOD IS SO VERY GOOD.
Blessings,

This is just awesome! And such pretty gloves! Have you already posted about the party? I must have missed it.
XO,

What a fun find, Ceekay! Can you believe that? I do believe that God answers those little prayers as much as the big ones-we just usually think it is chance or "good luck". Well, God sure make you lucky AND the ladies that got such a sweet gift were lucky, too. xo Diana
ps. I LOVE your new header-
What a great story! What lovely gloves!
Ceekay, what lovely finds! Wow, your hubby did great pointing out that lovely estate sale. I can't wait to catch up on your blog as I've been away for over a year. So many great blogs to catch up on!
Wow~
Those are amazing finds~
Isnt the Lord amazing!! Oh he knows how to bless us so.
What a wonderful blessing! He wants us to be happy. And, how cute are those gloves!! I love the way you are using them especially tying a card to the ring finger - even better than hankies!
Only you could think of such a lovely gift. I love mine! The party was beautiful, the food was delicious, and a fun time was had by all!

Such a charming idea, Ceekay...and even more fun than the hankies!
Thanks for popping in to see me, Ceekay. Hope you're having a nice weekend.
be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
I love the way God blesses us with the desires of our heart when we leave it all to Him! The gloves were a perfect find - and a sweet way to share love with your party friends.
