Friday Finds

Thrift stores, vintage, Christmas, vintage plush Santa

Hey!  It is the day after Thanksgiving and all through the house there is a great hustle and bustle for Christmas is coming.


With huge market baskets ready for shopping.

 

I wonder what Donna will drag home today?

 

A whole group of gold glitter baskets and a giant bag of bells - just too much to deal with now.

 

Sweet Christmas angels with slightly smudged faces.

 

And a giant linen tablecloth!

 

I am past getting worried - this is the dining room/craft creation/gift wrapping station.  Oh, my!

 

Typesetting letters - N, J, W (Not Jolly Wilkes?) and a #13 race car - perfect for stuffing a stocking or two.

 

Help! I am being held hostage in a hoarder house!

 

 

Tell the truth - how many of you went back and forth trying to find the rhyme or reason to this post?

 

Well, there isn't any except it is late Tuesday night and I am writing it ahead of time because I will be busy moving my junk, er, merchandise at Riverfront Antique Mall.

 

Come make me a deal!

 

See y'all!

 

PS  I am having so much fun with the vintage Santa, I am not selling him!

  5. Hi Donna ... hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful. Love your finds ... I would give Santa a safe home in this hoarder's house ... he could run free and not be held hostage.
    Good luck with you new booth.

    1. Hey Audrey;
      I see that you and I both could give this Santa the freedom which he needs to be able to roam, play with many items, and run free!!!!! LOL!
      NOT being a Hostage is an Important thing!!!! ;-)
      Take Care :-)

  7. Initially I thought maybe Santa and some other body part thingies in your house were going to have a conversation about what you're up to. NJW - "Joyous Noel, Wilkes!"
