Antiquing


My family knows that I love this little store in NC.  We always try and go while there, usually we are pulling into town right around closing time and Chick 2 lets him know we are coming so he will stay open a little later just for us!  Nice huh?  Anyways this time I found these two old crates, I was told that they were 45 years old, and I bought them for Chick 2.  She was able to fit all of their DVD's in one and their CD's in the other.  They fit perfectly in their book shelf.  Doncha think?

Funny how 45 years ago this cost $3 plus it was filled with oranges!
SWEET!

I knew he had one more with black lettering so I went back the next day and bought it for me!


Check out where the two sides come together, it's almost like dove tail but hubby says no they are not
I think I will store books and magazines in it for now.
LOVE IT!

Got this really cool old bowl too!
On the bottom of it it says ovenproof, microwave safe, and dishwasher safe.
My kind of bowl!
Also says Roseville, Ohio.
Only cost $8, I thought that was reasonable.


We also found this dresser that we thought would be cool for the boys and would look perfect in their bedroom with the bunk bed that their dad made.



It only needed a little sanding, a good cleaning and some Tung Oil. Hubby had to do a little tweaking on the drawers and doors but I think it turned out beautiful and made a perfict fit.  Only $45 too!
