Check Out These Finds....

Been out looking for great things again and this is some of the things I found lately....

Love this fabric, love the contrast of the the black, pink and white, and there are yards of it....

My husband actually found these at a auction he was recently at......

They are old tailor's sample books, from 1910 - 1929, love the covers and size! They are about 30" x 18".

All the samples are gone but they are absolutely filled with old paper pictures from magazines and etc from the same time period.

Got an great ideas for a use for this old sign used to display the schedules of service for the church? It too is pretty big, measuring 5 ft x 3 ft.

Happy hunting to all of you, what have you found this week?

Junk Jaunt 2010 ~!~!~!~!

I am finally getting around to posting about our 2010 Junk Jaunt trip, we had alot of fun, met many new people, and filled the trailer up pretty easily.

It was looking pretty gloom and doom at the beginning of our journey....

and muddy too....

then the fun began as we saw our first sign .... SALE HERE!!!!......

At one of the stops we always make every year they had the feed sacks hanging on the clothes line which made it easy to see them......

Everyone has their signs out directing you in which way you should go......

Ppeople are constantly putting more stuff out through out the weekend....

Some of my favorite finds were these great old Kodak cameras.......

As you can see the skies were are blue as could be later in the day.....

A great old green shelf that had to come home with me....

Found a couple cases of old Rodeo pop bottles, look like they may have been stored somewhere for quite some time....

Loved these old Burlington and Am Trak hats, I think we look pretty good huh?

Cactus Jack's was where we had lunch and boy was that a hit! He made this out of an old pull type camper trailer. Very creative and great food.....

There were displays everywhere you look.....

A close up of the driver of the above truck, may need to see a dentist soon......

Pumpkins......

Hedge apples.....

A great little camper that was for sale and in great shape....

Alba, Nebraska, a great little town with great vendors.....

We met these folks who had traveled all the way from Canada for their aniversary just to come to the the Junk Jaunt. They were having a great time filling up their mobile home with treasures they were finding......

A fabulous old canoe, husband said --- no......

See ya all next year, it is definitely worth the trip, the food, the junk, and the people you meet along the way made Junk Jaunt 2010 a complete success.
