Have Lunch With Snoopy

Does everyone love Snoopy?
My husband LOVES Snoopy.
More than a little.
Like a whole lot.
So, because I like him at least as much as he likes Snoopy I got him this lunch box at the auction today.


A lady there said it was worth $400.00.
I'd like to know where she gets her information.
Ebay has them for $75 for one with a thermos (which mine does not have) and excellent condition (also which mine is not).
I paid $22.
Hubby will be happy.

I also got:

another jar for Christmas snow globes, a cash box and a candy tub

This dresser ($2) that  matches 2 others I'm working on

and finally this lovely vanity. I love all the details, can't wait to work on this one!

Ya Win Some Ya Lose Some

Yesterday was Auction Day.

I love Auction Day!

It's so full of possibilities!

Almost like Christmas, but not quite.

I'm spoiled, so on Christmas I always gets everything I want.

At the auction there is almost always someone there with more $$ than me. :(

Ya win some, ya lose some....

This week I did OK

How do you like this old album storage bin-thingy?! I love the cubbies in it, not sure what I will store in it yet, but I'm sure I won't have any trouble finding stuff to put in it!


I LOOOOOOVE old suitcases, I have a stack in the library next to the club chair. Not sure if I'll be selling this one or keeping it.....
Also got the jars, the 2 short ones will be snow globes next year!


Then there's this cool "fire man's" chair (at least that's what they called it at the auction) I love the paint/patina on it! I don't think I'll have to do anything to this one! Gotta love that!














Thanks for checking out my treasures from Auction Day! If you're not busy next Monday come with me! ;)

Stop back by tomorrow for "What's for Dinner Wednesday"
