FALL DISPLAY
Happy Sunday Primfolk, sure hope you enjoyed the weekend so far, I had a wonderful one. Yesterday the weather was oh so crappy, windy, cloudy and cold but onward we went. After filling our travel mugs with coffee, off we went on our roadtrip to Lancaster, Minnisota, only about an hour away. The wind was behind us so that was good, crossed the border then hit the cute little town of Lancaster. Hit three yard sales down one dirt road, found a nice old cola drink case at the first sale, thought it would be a good shelf with all the compartments, paid $7.00, another sale, 3 nice pinecome candles and 2 old flower books, spent $4.00, didn`t find anything at the other sale. Then hit the town Hall rummage sale and found this sweet Shawnee corn bowl for.... get this..... fifty cents, ya, thats right...... did a happy dance and thats it for the hall but what a find. Hit a few more sales but nothing to great, bought this little green frog for the garden, 25 cents, found this box of pine scent insence, my dear Father used to burn them in our fake fireplace when we were kids, burning one was like you were really burning a fire, the smell brought back very fond memories of my Dad, so had to buy them, $1.00 for happy thoughts. So thats all my buys for the day, I`m very glad we came to take a look see. We were a little cold, that North wind blew right through you and hungry so off for lunch then on the way back home. And how was your weekend??, will catch up with you gals now, enjoy the evening, will leave you with some pictures of the festival and my buys. Warm Blessings Francine.
Hubby used to burn those little incense and you're right cozy like a fireplace.Glad you got out for the little trip,I prefer a little blustery and cool over the heat.Will be fall like the next couple of days here.Warm Blessings!~Amy
I love your finds! THANKS for the ideas on what to do with my find!! I'm not sure what I'll do yet, but I do think it's a keeper! :-) I'm glad you had a nice weekend, despite the weather that was like ours on Saturday!
Oh Francine I see your blonde hair!! Cute pic of you and your doggie too! That sounds like so much fun!! I like your coke cola crate. Please show us what you do with it!! I am nosey! LOL Actually I have a couple of different ones. I have some Halloween in one right now, I like it but curious as to what you're gonna do. LOL I guess we have to take the chill in the air if we want Fall!! Take care, XOXO Love, fran.
I can only imagine how thrilled you were to add that corn bowl to your collection, and at such an amazing price! Sounds like it was the perfect way to spend a chilly Fall day!
What fun goodies Francine. I am so happy you found the pine scent your father used to burn. It will be fun to have the memories so close this winter. That cola drink case is awesome. I would have snatched it up too. I am glad you had fun. -Steph-
