Fleamarket and Garage Sale Finds

Hello, blogging buddies! 

First of all, I would like to say
"Welcome" to my new followers!
I am so glad you have decided to
join me in my blogging journey.

Well, I don't know what happened

to the day, but it just  zipped by!

 I did get the things out and pictures

taken of most of it....So, here goes....I 

loved this fleamarket that we hadn't 
been to before, I ran out of money, 
before I ran out of fleamarket to look at!
Which may have been a good thing.....
Well, I had to save money to eat on, too!

I got these cute pitchers at the larger FM,

they were a steal, I only paid $8 for the 3 

of them....I think they might have to be the

last of my pitcher collecting, I am running 

out of room...

I got these at the garage sale we stopped

at, I thought they were loose, but they are

on fishing line.  A dear friend of mine said

to put show polish on them to prim them 

up....I think that is a good idea!

Here is all the wooden stuff I got!  I 

even got a oval cutting board, it is under

the white boxes...I put it in the kitchen,

against the ugly back splash, along with

the pig, which is painted on both sides.

I got all of this stuff really cheap! I think

I will put candles in the little trencher 

with rose hips....The long painted board,

is going to get repainted, one of these days.

Some more goodies!  There are two 

different prints of material, both have 

pumpkins on them...I liked the cast iron

pan with the hearts, I am going to hang 

it on the side of the kitchen cabinet, by 

the sink. The little milk bottle is unusual.

I have been keeping my cookies in a plastic

bag, so now I will put them in the clear jar.

There are two mugs with the blue granite

coffee pot, I am going to make something,

using them. 

 I got these cute little pumpkin head dolls

at the fleamarket and little down the lane,

I got the quilted sheep and cat.

I just love the little wagon and the kid's

chair!  The chair is the same size as my

other one, but the spindles have a different

design.  Can you guess what I paid for them?

I paid $1 for the wagon at the garage sale,

where we got a lot of stuff!  I got the chair

at the fleamarket for $5....Woo Hoo!  I am

going to put the wagon out on the porch 

and put some pumpkins in it. I got a little

wagon a week ago, that I need to take a pic

of to show you....Are you getting tired of 

looking at pictures of goodies?

 I am showing a cropped picture, that I 

posted, yesterday, so you can see the 

cast iron pans that we got at the garage

sale....I got the little barrel shaped thing

at the fleamarket, I am going to paint it.

We also got a box of candles, that you can

see in the picture. Oh, I forgot to take a 

picture of a wicker chair that I got...

If you are still with me, I have some

thing else to show you, with a story...

Here we have a wanted poster for an

outlaw, Sam Bass...He went to Texas, from 

Indiana, and drove cattle to Kansas...Then

he got in with a bunch of outlaws, and they

robbed stagecoaches and trains....He is

famous in Texas, known as "the friendly

bandit," because he would give gold to 

those who helped him, or fed him.  

He was shot and killed by a Texas Ranger, 

and he died a couple days later, on his 

27th birthday.

You might wonder why I know all this and 

bought this sign, It is because he was my 

great grandma's, cousin!  

He is buried in Round Rock, Texas...

I believe. He lived hard and died, young....

His parents died, when he was young and

he lived with an uncle for several years, 

before he left home and headed down the 

wrong path.

Well, I hope you enjoyed seeing all the 

goodies I got, over the weekend.  I do 

think I got carried away!  But then, it is

sooooo easy to do!

I was selected for a blog award, I will tell

you about it, soon!

Thanks for stopping by!

Until next time...
