weekend adventures

Just one of many weekend adventures from this weekend... Trash and Treasures yard sale in Crossplains, Tennessee.  A "must go" for us.  I even cancelled my hair appointment to go.... sort of regretting that now given the status of my roots and grays this morning.  At the sale I bought a new semi-large bucket, two enamelware tubs and various other small things.  The tubs and buckets already have dahlia and zinnia seeds planted in them.  By the way, I will be separating my hens and chickens (plants) this weekend because of their over abundance if anyone would like to have some.  They are very tough plants that will and have made it through some tough winters no problem.  I just let the clouds water them too.

Weekend Finds

I just adore a good yard sale day!  My sister and I had to take a detour and allow me to have a tooth pulled and like a trooper I hopped back in to the car and we kept going.  I don't know if that is so much a trooper or a stooper!  But I got some good deals so it was worth it. 

 

 

One of my favorite parts of yard sale finds is cleaning them up.  Several of these pieces had to have the steel wool took to them.  Makes me wonder where this stuff has been sitting for so long... underneath a house that I have been passing by my whole life?

 

Side Note: I did get the bridge cloth too and the white vase is McCoy.
