Saturday Treasures

 
Actually, this was Wednesday, Friday and Saturday Treasures.  I went to Estate Sales on Wednesday and Friday and then to the Flea Market on Saturday.
 
I found some interesting items.  Some neat old glass custard cups, a wooden doll, a porcelain doll, a sack full of very colorful vintage hankies, a mini shadow box frame, and some cocktail napkins with funny sayings on them.
 
 
I found linens and lace (naturally - I can smell them out when I walk into a home), a big bunch of vintage silver and look at the gorgeous wood carving I found.  Won't that be beautiful up over a door or window?  It is in perfect condition.
 
 
In the bunch of silver, I got this unusual butter knife.  I am not sure if you can tell or not, but the handle is turned a different angle than the blade????  My friend, Dorothy, said she had seen some of these before but I never had.
 
I found this teensy tiny little gold cigarette lighter.  Don't know what I'll do with it, but it's so tiny, it's cute.  It's only about 1 1/2" round.
 
I also bought this darling scissor holder made out of an old quilt and accented with fabric yoyos.  Isn't it cute?
 
 
And now my piece de resistance!!
 
Piece de resistance: _n.
 
(1.  the principal or most outstanding item in a series)
 
 
Look at my Radio Flyer Red Wagon.  I have wanted one for a long time to use in the back yard for flowers.  Isn't it sweet?  It will look great with my Coca Cola piece and my little bicycle I am going to paint all red!!
 
I am so excited about it!!
 
Enjoy!
 
Till next time, Judy

  7. You might laugh, but we had scads of these at the garden center...no one realized how lovely they were. And I hated them because they were too low to the ground, and didn't carry enough product...lol.

    Yours is gorgeous.

  9. Hi Judy - nice wagon! I felt the same when I found my red wheelbarrow. My favourites are the linens, always the linens. Our vintage stores haven't had any linens lately....(sigh) J
