What a WEEKEND! Whew!!! =)
Look at all of these treasures!!! On Saturday, Meggan, Ash and I all went to the "Heritage Hill" garage sales. Heritage Hill Homes are in the heart of Grand Rapids and were all built at the turn of the century. Over the years they have been bought/sold and restored, and some of them are just gorgeous! I found lots of pretties that day. On Sunday I went to the Ann Arbor Antique Market to help out a friend with her booth (check out her pretties at "ShabbySeller" on ebay) and found a several more treasures, and she gave me a few more! I had a great weekend (except for the migraine (I had never had one before and hopefully never do again!) Sunday that I thought was going to be the death of me...). Some of the pretties in the photo I am keeping, but most of them will end up on ebay. I'm hoping to get a few listed this week. Click on the photo to enlarge it and you will be able to see all of my treasures a little bit better.

Sounds like you had a great day of treasure finding. I had a migraine once and I thought I was going to die too. It is so awful.
I hope you feel better. I get a lot of headaches but that one was the worst.
Take care,
Rosemary

Hi Debbie
Thanks so much for your wishes for Sam. I saw him today, he is doing great, but poor Shannon is worn out (no sleep). He will come home tomorrow. He little leg is plastered from toes to groin, but he was very brave.
Love all your goodies, isn't it great when you have such good finds.
Don't forget to pop over to Sue's blog (Shabby Transitions), she's a good friend and lovely lady.
Hugz, Coll :-}
Debbie, I had to leave another comment. I just read that you love LaVyrle Spencer's books. So do I!! I found her by accident, I'm not usually into romances, but such a great writer. I have most of her books now.
Hugz, Coll :-}
I love the way you put those words all over the picture! A yardlong...hmmm gotta see a close up :)
I have been to Ann Arbor many times. Greenfield Village was a place daddy loved to take us when we were grown up kids. Happy memories!
Hi Debbie! Wow...You sure did find lots of wonderful treasures. I bet you, Meggan, & Ash had a great time. Nothing like junking with the ones you love LOL. Hope you have a great Memorial Day week end :-} ~Mary~
Ohhh, I just love vintage lamps! Especially boudoir lamps! See my blog ~ I just posted a couple of lamp pics tonight! I'll have to peek at your auctions! :0)
Stephanie
Deb, I know what you mean about hubby cringing! I'm almost out of outlets to plug all my lamps into!! :-)
Thanks for visiting!!
Stephanie
good haul!
sorry about your migraine, hope it is not the beginning of them for you and is only a one of a kind incident
Sounds like you had a great day!
I find my best bargains at car boot sales, but because this is an outdoor affair and its been raining for ages I have missed out on a few. I'm missing the rush of a treasure:(
Please some one up there, let the sun come out on Sunday:)
best wishes Ginny
Forget Ebay and send them all to me! LOL
Ann Arbor...home of the fairy doors...lol...and PeZz the little fairy that showed up in my comments for the past week...the lil' stinker!
I hope you don't have any more migrains...they are awful...
I love your site, very pretty things, the only problem, the text is so light it is hard to read.
Your little bundle of joy is absolutely beautiful. Good luck hunting. I grew up in MI, near Pine Knob in Clarkston but never made it to Ann Arbor. I now live in Seattle.
