For all of you who make fun of my garage saling and junk shopping....

Now see some of y'all like to make fun of me for getting up at 5:30 am on Saturdays and heading out yard saling and so I'm gonna do a quick entry to show you why I do! And go to Caledonia and West Point "junkin" too. The absolutely gorgeous window above was found behind a barn in Montpeiler, MS. I was on way home from my sister's house last November and this lady had all this old antique stuff at a yard sale out in front of this huge barn. I stopped, and looked around, and didn't find too much for me. But when I was turning around behind the barn to leave I saw TWO of these windows behind the barn. I immediately went and asked about them.... and left with them both for seventy dollars!!!! Yes, you read that right. Today, one is on my wall and Tamar has the other and it sits on top of her entertainment center. William and I don't like where ours is so we're actually prob gonna move it soon.
This is one awesome lamp that was exactly the right size I needed for a spot in my living room. It is actually made of washers, but I didn't notice. William figured it out. (anna, you'll appreciate this) The bottom and the ball in the middle match a floor lamp I found for half off in the Delta back in May. Needless to say I was psyched when I picked it up at one of my fave stores in the world, "Bits and Pieces" in West Point for TWELVE BUCKS.




This is Bubba curled up with one of my latest finds. I wish I had a picture of this window where you could see the colors, because they are really pretty. William is going to hang it above my kitchen sink and when he does I'll take another pic. This was picked up at a yard sale here in town for ten bucks..... along with a Southern Living door bucket for $3.



Ah, one of the greatest finds ever. At mine and Tamar's favorite store, 3 Sisters (in Caledonia) we found these stools. They were exactly what we needed for our stage for KidStuf. If you ever are anywhere near Caledonia, you must go in this store. I have some other pics from there that I will use in another blog when I feel like being funny. (i'm kinda sick tonite I think. Not sure what's up.) Anyway, Grant and Jeff Smith got bases welded on them in no time and now they sit on our stage!

So, if any of you are ever looking for anything, you need to just tell me. I will find it. I saw in Southern Living that this woman has a job workin with Interior Designers doing just that. Now it's ridiculous that I don't have that job!!!! And again, if you've laughed at my little shopping ventures, you just keep right on laughing. :)
