Weekend Finds

Hello friends,
I went to another fab estate sale on Saturday. It was called Back In Time! I felt like a kid In a candy store!! It was In an old farmhouse, and that's right up my alley. They were selling some really old vintage treasures. They were selling this big vintage rocking horse that was out of this world, but the price of It was $1,500 I don't think so!!! Only In my dreams, but I did find some great bargains. I was In love with this house. It belonged to an elderly lady that passed away. There was a big fireplace In the kitchen, and dining room. I can only Imagine what wonderful days they had sitting In front of the fire.




I bought the demijohn lamp at the sale for $25.00. I'm using the lampshade that I made awhile back. I've been searching for a lamp like this for a long time, and I finally found one.


 
I found four of the colonial pottery plates for 25cents each. They were chipped that's why. I think they add a nice touch to the hutch. I wish I could have found more of these!! I love the pattern.





I found four of the pumpkin placemats at a moving sale. It was time to bring them out. I bought some other stuff that I'll show you when I figure out where It's going to go.


Have a great day!!
