Friday Finds

Hey, y'all!

I know I have been away for a week, but I am back to show what I picked up on my trip to Hayesville, NC.

More about the trip tomorrow.

 

Yes, I broke my No Junkin' rule.

I am looking for a big farm mail box for a customer for her wedding, but all I found was this rusty black one.

I bought the rustic wood sign for the rough texture of the wood - I did not see the tin fish on it until I bought it.

I promise I did not steal the Gale Drive sign.

A large bottle crate -Kulmbacher - whatever that is.

A complete set of Little House On The Prairie.

A dusty blue divided box.

A small bench.

A tomato sign.

Two Royal Flush Inc. signs - one bullet-ridden.

A huge bin filled with books!!!

A few of the older ones.

I will take pics so the bibliophiles out there can drool.

I bought the metal candle lantern because it reminded me of Tardis.

I bought these few bottles.

I realized later I should have bought more from the guy at the flea market - I am low on bottles in the booth.

A set of twelve small jelly glasses with stars around the rims.

Great for individual votives at place settings.

Thanks to Jeannette at Mountain Creek Antiques for bundling a deal on the wedding photos.

Also on the two graduation photos of a lovely young lady.

Leaves Of Gold - a great seller and a great gift for graduations.

Especially when the inscription is from Christmas, 1964.

I love this plaque.

It became even more beautiful after I cleaned it.

Water babies!

A Victorian plaster frame with a plaster grouping of leaves and fruit on canvas.

Needs some tedious restoration.

I will wait until a rainy day.

I fell in love with hornet nests.

We do not have a lot of them around here.

The saleslady at Molly & Me Antiques In Hayesville helped me choose one.



A customer wants one to hang at her wedding venue.

After that everywhere Olivia and I went there were hornet nests.

A box filled with tiny bird nests and hornet nests from Molly & Me.

Besides adding a wire hanger, you do need to stabilize them with spray varnish.

I also added a bit of Mod Podge to one.

This is a close up of the one above which has lost the paper covering.

I plan to have them hanging in my C-23 booth this weekend.





I know I have not answered your comments and have not visited your blogs and have not linked to your parties, but I was worn out and had a lot of things to get done when I came home.

I promise to come visiting soon.

Look for my Mountain Trippin' post this weekend.
