A few more treasures to show you

Halloween is over for another year! I was completely cleaned out of treats and had to shut off the lights earlier than I would have liked.  They came in droves! Lots of the bigger kids in groups of 5 or 7. ALL of them were very friendly and polite, and they ALL said thankyou!

I am still coming across things I tucked away from those two end of season garage sales that yielded so many goodies! I have been busy too, and the days just fly by with my good intentions of posting just flying right by with them!

Do you love this? A heavy cast old mailbox! With a fleur de lis!

Wonderfully shabby french!

Old style, open at the back, to be fastened to the wall,

The lid at the top flips up for the mailman to deposit the mail, the front piece flips up for you to remove the mail, after you remove your lock!

I'm trying to remember the last time I ever saw one of these in use!

A Seth Thomas marble mantle clock.....older electric...

Not shown to advantage, but the neatest heavy cast metal soap dish? I think that's what it is but could be wrong. Too cool!

All of the above came from the hoarder's garage sale.

I'm happy to say that this snow that we woke up to on Saturday is now gone! Hopefully we won't see the white stuff for at least a couple of weeks!

Another busy week ahead...I am hoping to do something creative at some point this week, at least that's what I say now!

I'll be back with some more finds soon.

Have a great week!

Bunny and Buck

I just HAD to share these pictures with you! The little bunny at the woodpile is one of our resident bunnies that scoot around the yard winter and summer, I watch them from the kitchen or sunroom. I have to act quickly with the camera, and not make noise getting out on the deck through the sliding door, etc. so I shoot through the window, and in this case, inbetween the deck rails. I love my zoom lens!!

How sweet is this little guy/girl? And look at that snow sparkle!! CLICK ON ANY OF THE PICTURES TO ENLARGE.

This last picture is of the buck that has been hanging around the field at the back, always too distant for me to get a good picture. He got a little closer a week or so ago, and I did manage to get a picture, not focused too well, but I'm happy to have captured a picture of him!
Would you believe, he was in our front yard last night? Around 10:30 my husband just happened to glance out the window and see him on the front lawn! He was gone by the time I got to the window!
