Child-sized vintage hangers!

A stepladder - quite distressed.
Two Pepsi carton crates.

I had just a few dollars left in my pocket when I started for home.

 Then I met Eddie on the side of the road.

 I wanted the white metal shelf, the chisel store display, and the brown suitcase.

 I told him I did not have much money.

 He named a price.

 He must have ESP - it was exactly what was in my pocket!

Thanks, Eddie!


There is so much going on this weekend, I am not sure which direction to go.

 Just point me towards the rusty, crusty stuff.
See y'all!

    Dang, Donna, I don't know where to start, so I'll just say - I love all your junk!! Maddie was the little girl junk entrepreneur? A pro in the making - she had some good stuff! Those child hangers can be expensive, too. You did really well. Have a great weekend.

    I love all of it but am coveting the Pepsi crates! I never find anything like that! The colors on them is great. Have a great weekend! I'm off today and Monday so it's a glorious 4-day weekend for me!!!

    Ooo what awesome finds! I'm starting my prep for the one big flea market I am doing this summer. I'm hoping I have enough stuff in my house and with what I've bought last week to make it worthwhile. The good news is that since it's a flea market, I can sell anything. I have always done really well with my vintage stuff at this market, but I do have some household stuff and clothes I need to get rid of.

    Oh my what great finds! I am particularly envious of the spools. I have been looking for a few in which to wrap my wide antique lace.
    Have a wonderful weekend!

    LOL...that didn't happen to be "Cousin Eddie" did it??!! So many wonderful things! I'll take the suitcase (I have a love affair with old suitcases and it will go nicely with my collection), the old can and the handmade scoop. That's probably all I can afford this week, so I will be back next week to shop again! I WISH I LIVED CLOSER TO YOU!! You have the bestest stuff...always!!

    Well Donna, you did it again ... hit the top with wonderful finds. I could always use the casters. Love the piano casters. Working on a piece of furniture right now that I could use those on. Nice birdcage and the cotton basket is great, even without the bottom.
    Enjoy a quite week-end.

    Love the little birdhouse. It must be nice for each bird to have her own space.

    The blue bench and the red basket are my faves! I had that exact same tin, found full of buttons as well a few years ago. Hope you're having a great week! ~Ann

    That must have been soooo much fun! I love the little chippy blue bench and adore the birdhouse most of all. And those old railroad spikes, my goodness, when I think of all the ones I used to find growing up near a railroad!
