How is week-end shaping up??
I had the best Saturday in a very long time, Will and I went hunting at the garage sales.
Ta Da
I have often heard the men say "Real men have Ute's"
Well
I think then that real women have Tarago's....The things I fit in here is amazing.The back seat was full,I got an old trunk for $15 and so much china, and then I got this cabinet for only $30 and couldn't leave it there for that price. Up went the other seat and in she went....
I love my car..
I also got this lamp. OK she looks bad here but look at the base, it is glass. I have often seen these on blogs but never found one for myself.
and the china...All of this for $15. It has been years since I have gotten to Garage sales so I may be a little excited OK..Just humor me PLEASE..
A new shade on my lamp and she is looking better, still not 100% happy I think it needs a smaller shade. Another shot of the chinna, the green striped bowls and plates are part of a dinner set. When I asked the fellow how much he said (this is some of Dads old china how about $5) I causally said thats OK I supose...$5 can you beleive it..The floral plate and other green plate was $2 each.
Now the travelling trunk, the elderly lady said here Grandfather come out from Scotland with this trunk. My grandfather also came out from Scotland may-be my Pop had a trunk like this too. I'm sure it wasn't yellow though!! He makes a lovely coffee table on the veranda for now. I want to fit it into the boys room as a toy box.
Below is my cupboard for $30 it to has gone on the veranda as I have no room in the house.
Yes I had a wonderfull day Saturday.
Today Damien and I are going to look at some chooks. Rare bred ones so all in all this has been one of the best weekends ever...
What have you been up to?????
