Would you buy it Wednesday

Last week I hit another auction.  I LoVe auction season and dread the snow because that will mean the end of the season. Luckly, we have 4 months left of good 'ole biddin' weather! 

So, in accordance with Stephanie at  Junker Newbie I'm asking you... did I make a good purchase?  Would you buy this junk?

Here a few of my finds.


3 picnic baskets= $2.00


BIG box of tatting= $4.00 for all.


Frames= $2.00 for all.


Cute child picture in old frame= $5.00


3 old freezer baskets= $6.00 for all 3


5 rag rugs= $17.50 for all


Big box of batting, material,and lace= $2.00 for all.


What did you find this week?


Thanks for stopping by,
Kim

Is it too soon...



Is it too soon to be looking forward to Spring?

Fall is in full force (27 degrees this morning on my way to work)Yeah, I said fall... the leaves are off my trees... all thirteen truckloads are down at the city compost pile... thanks to some great teamwork by my children and their friends... (for $20.00 of course!)

HOWEVER... I miss the green trees, the flowers, the smell of living things... all things that don't occur in the midwest in fall. Nope, everything here is pretty much shriveled up and dying. (talk about that in another post)



So, I have decided to share some of my niece's talents behind the camera. One afternoon last spring she decided to have my daughter (the one with the umbrella)and two other nieces dress up in some of my mother-in-law's cedar chest treasures. I absolutely LoVe these pictures. They mix vintage with nature.



Enjoy! They brightened my mood on this dark dreary fall day... hope they do the same for you...
