I had auction fever when I was in my early to mid twenties. And it looks like, in the last half of my life....it's BAAACK!!!!!
Fell in LOVE with this old egg box and STOOD UP in a really hot metal building all day(it was nearly the last thing sold) to get it(paid too much-$60.00 ). My dh and I bought other stuff(I told him I'd sell some at my booth to pay for the rest ). I kept all this stuff:I don't know why the photos are all so different in size - must have messed up somewhere but don't have time to fix it. Here's the thrift store cow:. OOPS, I forgot the match holder(had to take about five boxes full of stuff just to get this:

YOU lucky girl, you. If I would have seen that little kitty match holder, I would have swiped it right out from under you!!!!

What great finds, though. I still have yet to go to an auction. Can't get dh out of the house lately. Maybe with what's on the horizon, it's for the best, though.

Good girl, good shopping!!!!
