Week End Treasure Hunt



The weather was gorgeous here in Eastern New Mexico over the week end,     so there were quite a few yard / estate sales happening.


I would never pass up a white ironstone duck pitcher for $2 

50 cents for a set of  Cauliflower salt & pepper shakers


$2 for a pretty spring table cloth and matching napkins


$5 for a set of brass shish kabab skewers     I loved the farmhouse look of the skewers and plan to use them as plant stakes instead of skewers.


I visited a few antiques stores........enjoy the trip with me......
















Guess what city I was in!    Lubbock Texas,   home of the Texas Tech Raiders!



The only thing I bought at the antique shops was this sweet cow.......


I am so glad you joined me on my week end treasure hunt!      Let's go again soon!

  5. Penny, Your pictures make me want to take a road trip and go antiquing. I love the cow and duck. It's so much fun to look and think where you could use some of these wonderful treasures.

  8. I took my boyfriend to an antique shop and he was not expecting to enjoy it. There is a town here called Aurora, OR which is filled with antique stores. He was hard to get out of there!

  9. I think the cow you purchased was a wise choice! I love cows and have a little collection of them in my kitchen. I grew up on a two different farms and on the first one when I was five-eight-years old we had black and white cows. They had such beautiful eyes. I loved them and still do.

    Those fabric carrots were pretty cute, too. Such fun to accompany you on your antique store travels. Thanks for taking us along!
