I just found this for $1 at the Thrift Quaker.....It is not in perfect condition, but it is so beautiful. It has a few chips, but you know what? I don't really care. The patina is wonderful and from a distance, you can't see the chips!! I love it.

I just couldn't believe what I was seeing on the shelf marked for $1!!!

What a cute find, they are very sought after. I was looking at your blog, what a lot of nice things you have been making, and I can't believe how much the girls have grown!

Georgann-

What a cute Hummel! I think you found the find of the day! Looks like you could get more than $1 if you ever decided you wanted to E-Bay it! :)
