Day Trip & Treasures

Last Friday my friend Kathy & I took a day trip

to Treasure Cove in Taylorsville, NC

Neither of us had been there before so we were

excited to have a new place to go hunt for some great JUNK!!

We took the scenic route

it was really a pretty drive...lots of big old barns & farm houses

(both pics above from Google Images)

After and hour or so we made it there and

began what would end up being several hours of

hunting through some great stuff!

My car was totally full! Kathy and I both found

some great items at awesome prices!

Here's what I came home with...

metal flower frogs, creamy white ironstone , blue willow mug,

and a sweet little figurine of a little girl and a bird

two freakin awesome vintage cameras!

and Kathy says I have to mention here

 that when I found this old ledger book ....

I hugged it like a long lost friend...

Yep...I admit it...I did give it a big hug ( with both arms!)

loved these old jars

aren't those labels so cool

gonna look great in my spring display at the booth next week!

pretty milk glass goblets

I have a customer that wants these for her daughters

vintage wedding for the table centerpieces

cool idea!

two satin glove boxes

two pair of baby shoes ( pink and white)

and we both got a load of these old hankerchiefs ( 40 to be exact )

luckily there was one with a "M"

 for Kathy's daughter Meredith

and one with an "H" for my sweet Hannah!

this great old pink candy tin

and two adorable mini size silver ice buckets

such a great size!

we both got two of these metal planters

not really vintage but so cool for spring displays!

Kathy also got a great big garden/tool box in this same metal

several big beautiful platters

the one in the back is a soft pastel blue color

the very bottom one has a pretty gold edge

the other pieces with the pink flowers are Austria China

the dealer threw in the two bowls he had for FREE!!!

( we were lovin that !)

this neat old handmade spice rack

still had the note inside of who made it

 back in 1947

it's getting a nice coat of white paint

and last...this old chamber pot

& another small white creamer

it was a good day!

in the hills of North Carolina...

we'll definetly be going back there

the people at The Treasure Cove were so nice!!!

If you are in the Carolinas...it's worth the trip!

 I"m doing a big consignment sale this week here in Charlotte

and then headed to the beach on Thursday for the weekend

Busy Busy Busy with TONS of other projects in between

Have a great week!
