It Was A Great Day in the Country!

Junk, that is the work that describes it all, everyone had a great day searching for the perfect treasure to take home, especially since we had a bargain corner in the shop chucked full of piles of bargains for the day, but you had to hunt and gather to find your prize.

We had buckets of mums through out the shop, there were two lucky winners who each won one of these buckets. Dorothy Jensen from Randolph, and Diane Wemhoff from Coleridge, who have both happily picked up their winnings.

We had piles of hardware stacked up for the creative shoppers....

Meet Barb, she drove 91 miles to attend the event, she is sitting among the treasures she found to take home with her. Barb doesn't know it yet but, she will be getting a special delivery package in the mail for having traveled the longest distance to attend.

A collection of way cool soda pop bottles...

The bargain corner, now don't you wish you were there to dig through some of that? I do a bargain corner at every fall sale, most things are a dollar!

Chalkboards you can use to write your own message for each season.....

A few things from the "browns" corner......

The door in the background came out of an old house that they will be burning down this weekend, it's an old pocket door that measures 6' by 7', and boy is that baby heavy!!!! Makes a great wall though.

Little white pumpkins.....

Great orange sign for the fall....

The mirror was just rescued from an old schoolhouse that has been empty for 40 years.....

Bitter sweet on the metal swing seat.....

Great old turq typewriter.....

One of my favorite new purchases, this set is in great shape, the cording is chartreuse in color!

Later in the afternoon we were looking around in the bargain corner, found this fun glasses and the hat, looks good on him huh? This was my husband's expression when I told him how many people we had stop by the shop.

Thank you to everyone who stopped in, it was great to meet the bloggers who made the trip to meet me in person. We will be having a holiday show coming in November, just watch the blog or email for the announcement. See you soon.

Daffadowndilly's - The Shop --

I thought you may be interested in getting a peek inside of the Daffadowndilly's shop. My shop is open by appointment only, the population of the town it is in is 600.

The building use to be an old Farmers Union. The building to the east of me use to be connected to mine by a doorway, but has since been closed. The building to the east was the creamery and the building I'm in was the dried goods part of the Farmers Union.

I originally got this building so I had a place to store things as they were starting to take over every empty space in my home, including my chicken house! There were no chickens in it but there was alot of great junk.

Welcome, to the shop. There is alot of really cool junk in here!


This is from the back of the shop, you can hardly see to the front!

More junk .........

Chippy, garden, summer stuff......

That gives you an idea of how much great stuff I have in Daffadowndilly's. Someday I'll take you into the back room or as we call it the "ruff" room. You might have to bring your hip waders though.

Let me know if you see anything you may need.
