Junking Weekend, December 13-14, 2008

Junking in a Winter Wonderland! Whew! Snow...cold...slippery roads. You can't let it stop you! Here are some finds RJNJ & I picked up the weekend of December 13-14. Yes, I know, I'm behind a week or two, but I had so many fun holiday tours and posts! So, on to the finds...

ESTATE SALE

Well, let's just say that this estate sale was "pretty slim pickings." I found a blue fan to add to my collection (I'll post about it in January), two magnetic key hiders, and a wooden clipboard with which I plan to do a future photo project. 



MOVING SALE

There also happened to be a moving sale in Superior. We picked up a few little gems...a crock, a metal handled tray, a candy jar, a green glass piece, and a clear glass refrigerator dish.



ANTIQUE STORE

Last, but certainly not least, was a find at one of my fave antique stores at Superior Antique & Art Depot. While there were lots of items that wanted to come home with me, I only walked away with a single great find...this great vintage sign! It's a hand-painted metal sign from a 1950s grocery store in Minnesota. The dealer didn't know the specific store, but isn't it marvelous!? It was all musty, dusty, and hidden in the back of one of their outdoor garages. It's about 5 feet tall!



After a good scrubbing, here it is on the wall in my dining room...



More projects, finds, and fun to come! Thanks for stopping by today!
