Wow! What a beautiful fallish day yesterday and that was great
because my first auction I attended was held outside in a nice IL country ranch.
When I got there I did not expect to see boxes and boxes and boxes of stuff. Actually, I
did not know what to expect. Above are a few pics that I took of some of the goods that belonged
to the previous owner.
The auction was great. I dragged my friend Donna from work with me and we had a blast. We get along
great and she loves junkin as much as I do. Well, I wouldn't call it junk because for me it's I guess the thrill of
finding something old and loved. I got caught up bidding and that is easily done especially when someone else
is wanting the same things you want.
It was fun though and here are a few pics that I took of some of my acquisitions. I did not get the tattered chair
even though I was tempted. I should of picked up the white chair next to it though. Not sure if it ever sold.
I did though get an old shabby picture frame that I have not taken a picture of (batteries need to be recharged). I am
so tempted to start selling some of my stuff at the flea.
Maybe soon enough..................

Those old daguerrotypes are great, Angelica. Sometimes if you carefully take them out, you can find information behind the picture. I bought some at one of my first auctions over 20 years ago.
Looks like we missed a great auction:( Check my blog out....we found a great new fabric shop! All my auction money, tag sale money, flea money, antique mall money was spent for MORE FABRIC.....hee...hee
