Treasure Hunting

Some of the finds over the past week, some will end up in the Etsy shop that I badly need to update!!

Treasure Hunting

This is from a couple weeks ago, I Found a little wagon for Raley perfect for pulling Lalaloopsy. Someone was wanting to help me with taking my pictures, little cutie!! A blanket that is going to look great in my bedroom, Right before I found this my bedroom was painted the light grey like in the blanket! A Ohio Blue Tips match box, love the illustrations! A "My Little Red Story Book" by Ginn Basic Reader which I find really neat because it was published in 1948 and that was before the Brown vs. Board of Education and even before Ruby Bridges. In the book it shows African American and white Children playing together in the same social aspect. I also got Cardboard wall hangings that I was going to put in my girls bedroom but since I have snagged these I changed my mind so they will go in my Etsy shop along with some other items like the match box.

Granny Square Blanket, Enamel, Little ducks and the original FP record player. Some will go in the Etsy Shop!

I found this little Betty and loved it instantly! The best part it was only $6.00! Could it be anymore perfect, Enamel, floral, slightly rusty! Someday I will use this bread box in my kitchen but for now it sits on one of my bookshelves in my room with one of my globes on it. Raley was my helper and the sun was setting so the light was getting bad and when the boss says its time to go for a walk, well we walk!
