Junkin' Finds

(Thank you to 'thoughts from alice' for featuring this post!)

Hi, everyone!
This is my favorite time of year!  I know for many people it's the fall or the holidays; but to me nothing beats the warm weather, fresh lemonade (which Keith makes almost daily-we're addicted!) and shopping the flea market and garage sales!

It's good junkin' time...finally!!  After a long, harsh winter, we've been having some gorgeous weather and I'm in my element.  (Our local flea market is open 4 days a week, and I'd be there every day if I could!)

I thought I'd share some of my recently found treasures.  Some things I'll keep and others will end up in our shop, Home Sweet Home.

Warning: lots of pics of junkin' finds!  So here goes...

At the flea market the other day I found this pretty painted plate, and vintage planter...love them both!

I was attracted to the urn on this extra tall topiary, also from the flea.

This matching set of pitchers (in 2 sizes) caught my eye at the flea right away!  Such pretty lines.

This old grain sack was being used as a runner in a booth at the flea, and it was so hidden I almost missed it!
So glad that I didn't-score!

The same lady also had this huge grain sack pillow...

My friend Suzanne and I went to the special flea on Memorial Day and knowing about my current obsession with anything blue or green, she spotted these 2 things for me:
This cool old wooden box...

..and this super fun, chippy toy truck (which is the best of both worlds with both blue AND green!)

We joked that she was my picker for the day..now that's a good friend! :)

I also found this great fan...

,,,and the blue and red floral sham in the background...

One of my favorite things that I found at the flea was this large bucket.

I'm not sure what it was used for (the dealer thought maybe grain but he wasn't sure either) but I've never seen one quite like it!  I love the wooden handle, the 'pull', and the bits of blue peeking out.

I'm always a sucker for galvanized buckets!  I'll probably fill it with dried hydrangeas or lavender.

The little pile of ticking scraps was purchased from the vendor where I got the grain sack and grain sack pillow.  I thought they looked cute just stacked randomly.

Here are some more things in the blues and greens that I've recently picked up...hope you're not getting bored yet! :)

Two pretty glass bottles...

...some architectural pieces of molding...

...a chippy old windowpane...

...this small, unusual corbel along with some old books (which Keith found for me)...

...this large, shabby milk can...

...and this chippy old shutter...

I told you that I'm obsessed with these colors!

Have you done any good junkin' lately?

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you have a wonderful week ahead!
