Fever is back


I went out yesterday.

And I got all this (except the wash tub).


Yes, I know the map is upside down, but it would hang for the picture better that way.


I collect rulers and this one is an 8 footer, complete with dirt dobber remnants.


A man asked what I would do with the sewing machine.  My favorite line, especially when a man asks, "I'm going to look at it".  He gave me the strangest look.  "Women" he was thinking.
Another seller I had just passed saw me with the sewing machine and asked me to take hers off her hands.  I couldn't refuse the price.

Candy or Sandie or Sandra, would one of them sell in your store???


I'm glad I have a basement to decorate with rusty things.


This cabinet is going in a spare bedroom.



This is my favorite.  Landscape art.

One red leg




 . . . a little chippy white,


 . . . some nice brass hardware,


 . . . Charlies Garage,


 . . . a bunch of other numbers,


 . . . and a nice wooden table top thingy.


Isn't it great?


What will I do with it?

Look at it.



It might go in the red dining room in the background there.

Any suggestions?

Got Green?

Since I don't plan well for blogging,
(too much like work, and when blogging starts to seem like work to me, it's over)
I thought I would find a few green things around the house for today's post.
























Can you tell I like green?

Happy St. Patrick's Day !!!

"if you don't want these . . . "


Every time I'm at my mother's house, she has cleaned out some dark corner or drawer and there is a pile of things waiting for me.  Not usually a pile of big things, but small things.  This time is was mostly tiny  things.  She says "if you don't want these things,  I'm throwing them away".


Shoe buttons



Two tiny Christmas tins.  About 2 inches in size.




Teeny, tiny little dolls.  Both together are the size of a quarter.
I remember them and I had larger ones like them, but I don't remember who or what they were.


They still have their little bed, all comfy with pink tissue bedding.



My baby spoons.  I must have eaten a lot.  Nothing has changed there.



A teeny, tiny gun, a jingle bell, cat eyes, and some buttons.



My grandparents' keys.



Salt and pepper shaker.  The mate was in a previous batch.



An old key chain of mine.  Do they still make Aigner?



A baby bracelet of mine.



High school trinkets.



Another bracelet of mine.  The back is engraved "Christmas 1978".
I'm wearing it now!



I don't really know what kind of watch this is, but I like it.
It now resides on my new door display dining table.



Miniature is right.  Each of these tools is less than an inch in size.



And you know what these are . . .



Cracker Jack toy?



A tiny little box.  I don't remember what it was used for.



A red velvet lined trinket box with a rose on the top.




I've been informed that there's another box waiting on me.
See ya.
