I was able to go antiquing today! Finally!

I got some tin canisters, and an old housekeeping book.

Tomorrow we're going back for some outdoor chairs, and I WISH I could afford some aprons and linens I saw, but not for a few months, as the chairs are gonna drain me!

Fun stuff, Katrina! Be sure to show us the outdoor chairs when you get them home.

I was going to go back and get them today, but we didn't have time. I hope they're still there tomorrow! *nailbiting* You know how you want something so much and you're afraid someone else sees the same value in them you do? That's how I feel! I may have a TEENY bit extra left for a pretty apron or table linen- but even though I want to buy them all, I'll have to pick only one! *cry*

I'll post pics when I get them- I can't believe it took me THIS long to get into antiquing!

I hope your "goodies" were there today, Katrina.

Ok, well, I thought the price tag said $45. But it actually said $445. So, um, no chairs. *cry* I did get a cute lilac gingham apron though, which I will share pics of later. :)

Ouch! :( They must have been really, really good chairs. I'm sorry you had to be disappointed. But do share a pic of the cute apron! :)
