More Auction Items

I am just now getting around to cleaning and photographing some of the items that I picked up at a local auction two weeks ago.

These two pretty pieces were complete surprises!
I didn’t see them until I unloaded at home.
The auctioneer was obviously wanting to get finished.
If he didn’t get an immediate bid on something,
he would make it more attractive by adding another box of goodies.
There was several nice things in my mystery box.

This old cabinet wasn’t something that I intended to purchase.
But, when I won the vintage Christmas Scene that was sitting on it,
they threw in the cabinet came with it!!!
That’s was an offer I couldn’t refuse!
I  am going to spiffy it up, so watch for the makeover.

  6. I love freebies! The auction that we have been going to has all of a sudden gone "high dollar" on us! Bummer! There has been a bunch from Atlanta that have been coming and the prices have gone sky high! So we are in the hunt for another one! Auctions are so much fun!!
