Tuesday's Treasures
Every time I watch the "American Pickers" on the History channel, I get the bug to go junking. These guys, Mike and Frank have the best jobs ever, searching for old junk! They live right in the same area as I do! Last weekend they had a whole weekend dedicated to them in the quaint little town of Le Claire, Iowa. Its a tiny town right on the Mississippi river. They had meet and greet where you could get their autographs. I wanted to go but hubby said it would be crazy with the parking and it was rainy both days anyway. They are talking about having the event again next year.
Since it was a rainy day today, I headed to the Goodwill and the Antique Mall. Both places were busy! I picked up these few treasures. I love the old terrarium house. I can't wait to put a little plant in there. Was thinking maybe a little fern would look great.
Your little dress ornies are adorable! Love the goodies you got....I have that exact same terrarium!....got it at a cottage boutique shop a few years ago....I have mine on a little table in the bathroom with a Potted Angel Vine from my shoppe inside it and it looks mighty cute in there!

My or my you found some sweet treasures! Love the terrarium, I would add various plants and a gnome or two with toadstools inside. Your little Americana dress is just adorable!
ReplyDeleteGreat finds, I need to get out and hit the thrifts again.
ReplyDeleteThose dresses are so fun and I was thinking, fun to use materials to fit the seasons. I need to dig out my old doll clothes book.

I love that little terrarium! My daughters would adore it too! I think a small fern would be perfect, with some moss you found outside.
ReplyDeleteIt's been too long since I've gone antiquing!
how cute is the little rocking chair! Delightful! You take your inspiration from American Pickers, and I take mine from you!
ReplyDeleteAdorable finds and adorable little dresses!

ReplyDeleteHowdy Tammy! My hubby watches those American Pickers and those Pawn Shop guys too. Interesting shows for sure. I sure am lovin' those lil dresses you're makin' now. They could become my expensive habit real fast. We'll see;)
