here are my treasures from the don scott antique show, it rolls in to our fairgrounds 6times a year and you never know what you will find......letter "L" came off an old movie marque in detroit, michigan, it is for laura ..arent the latern salt & pepper shakers too cute?? $1.00 for the pair, i collect old glass salt/pepper shakers and fill them with buttons!!
Embroidery floss=50cents a piece and that saved me a trip to joanns, box of straight pins was $3.00 and i bought it for the little box and i needed a small box of pins to take to artfest..
closer view of the spoons...2nd on the left goes to my sunny friend-miss crabapple
nice collection of pictures, wedding photos and lovely woman in glasses for laura..
the book is an autograph book, binding is not in good condition but can use the front and back covers for other projects..date is late 1800s or early 1900s...
closeups....

Ok whichy, You flea market treasure hunter you..... Great haul of lovely booty..... Just be careful you will be come like Bee and have to have a special building to store it all in --- 67 Rubber Made crates to be exact. Not counting all the stuff hanging on the walls. I feel like Mini Pearl every thing in my house has a price tag-->>> LOL

Don't you just LOVE antique shows?
Ooooo a ton of yummy things!
The little lanterns are WONDERFUL!
and buttons inside ... of course.
Perche No! (why not!)
I do like that ... Good idea!
I have a vintage gumball machine
filled with old pennies, so of
course why not buttons in the
salt & pepper shakers?
Someday I am going to figure out
how to create a slot in my penny-filled gumball machine where
one can drop in a gumball to win
some of the pennies ::giggle::
