Other items I got that aren't pictured: A pair of 1920's cabinet doors. A small white shelf and a small green 1930's corner shelf with a white daffodil stencil. A green 3-tier table (diy project). An antique Stanley planer for woodworking and a 1930's doorknob set for a french door.

    My goodness, what an absolutely stellar array of finds to unearth in the span of just one month. I wish I was having the same kind of luck here this year (alas, it seems that 2012's yard sales and the like were much more forthcoming with vintage items than this year's have been so far).

    Have a blast with all of your new (old) treasures, honey!

    Hi Ivy,

    here I am again!
    I was nominated for a Liebster Award and well, you know the rules, I have to nominate a few other bloggers.
    I naturally thought of you, but then I saw you had already been nominated for the Award twice...
    However, #3 is in the pocket for you! Yes, also nominated you.
    You can read more here : http://jessicasvintage.blogspot.nl/2013/06/liebster-award.html
    But don't feel pushed to 'continue' it, I'm sure you have better things to do. ;)

    xoxo
