I think I find some of my best treasures at the spring yard sales. Seems like people are more in the mood to let go of their clutter....lol! |
I bundled several things at one of the yard sales and the lady gave me a really good price. I bundled the pretty tufted floral head board that you see propped up in my vintage iron baby crib. |
This vintage wooden baby crib...... |
And the wooden chair to the left of the iron baby crib......all for $20 |
I've had my metal crib for quite a while and you may remember seeing it on the back porch last year....photo on the left. Who knows where it will show up next year! |
I have the cribs at the far east end of the front porch..... |
The wooden crib filled with "stuff" to keep people from sitting on it until H has a chance to reinforce the seat so it won't dump somebody....lol! |
Now I need to work on the west end of the front porch. I won't put much on that end because we have birds that nest in the tree above it and they sure do make a mess! |
Nice photo of your home. I had one of those antique baby beds for my kids back in the 70's. Love them!
ReplyDeleteI love your baby beds and what a deal you got! Good shopper. I have one decorated on my back porch also. Love them.

ReplyDeletePenny,
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! What an incredible deal for $20 on all those lovely items!! The floral headboard is to die for and so are the vintage cribs!! Wish I had room for something like those beauties!! I posted my Easter Tree this morning and I am still doing my Easter decorating.... I can not believe the amount of Easter stuff I have so I am a bit overwhelmed!!!
I deleted this comment once before because i really screwed up and typed $200 instead of $20!!!!!
Hugs,
Deb
You are a great shopper. Too cute.
ReplyDeleteYou did get a great deal in your bundle. That headboard is so pretty and the idea of using the baby cribs on the porch is inspired!
ReplyDeleteI admire all your decor and your devotion to decorating. One question though...I live near Clovis (Melrose) and I am curious to know how you keep all your decor dusted and beautiful lol?
ReplyDeletePenny you home is just beautiful I love all the pretty things that you do to make it all look so pretty.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely setting your home is in, Penny. You are the queen of thrifting, I think. I like the tufted headboard. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

I love your porches and the creativity in your decorating. It is a good thing you filled the wood crib with stuff to prevent people from sitting in it because it really does look like a cozy place to curl up for a good read or nap.
ReplyDeleteI saw this crib on your table makeover and porch cleaning post and I thought it was such a nice touch. I'm so glad you did a post specifically for it. Thanks so much for sharing at Inspiration Thursday. Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a fabulous deal! And your porch is so pretty with all your finds. I've had an antique iron baby bed in storage for years. I forget to find it a mattress! You have inspired me to go get it and put it out somewhere.
ReplyDeleteI am in awe of the fabulous things you find and how you style them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing at SYC.
