My Loot!!

Hey there friends...
A few weeks ago right before the kids finished up with school I took a little trip for myself to an antique store that's about 40mins away...
I haven't been there in over a year!
~~~
It was definitely worth the drive...because I didn't come home empty handed!!


 Love the patina on this one!

Only $28 for this nice size demijohn.
~~~
 Who says copper is just for the kitchen! I hung these near the front door.
Love the way they look here.



My cane collection is growing nicely!
~~~
Wishing you all a happy and safe 4th of July!!

You found some great things, Martina. Love the addition to your cane collection. A new flea market just opened in the space where my local antique and flea mart was and I'm itching to get over there and check it out. I will have to make sure I go next week. Conveniently, they are right across the street from my bank! : )

I love the demijohn. I wish I could bring some of those from Italy. They are everywhere

Stacey said...

Your copper pieces are wonderful hanging there. You are finding the best things lately. I need to look more in antique shops and places like that, I think. :)

This looks like such a beautiful place! It's been ages since I've been to the Hudson Valley but my husband and I were just talking about how we wanted to go!

Great finds! Love your cane collection and copper is so classic, too. The copper pieces look really good by the door. Great price for the demijohn. What a haul! Hope your 4th was nice.

Martina, I love every single thing that you got! The demijohn was a great price; and those copper pieces would be hanging on my pot rack! Love your cane collection, too! You really scored!

Liz@ HomeandGardeningWithLiz said...

Wow you found some great buys! I like the copper pieces and they look great in the entry area. You have a nice collection on canes- love the container they are in too! That's a good looking demi-john-score!

I love that you collect canes!

Jane@Cottage at the Crossroads said...

Hi Martina, you got a super deal on that demijohn, and your copper molds look fabulous in your entry. I just noticed that you had us on your blogroll so I have reciprocated! Thanks a bunch!

Blondie's Journal said...

You hit the jackpot!! Are those copper thingies molds? Strainers? I'm so educated on this stuff! Ha! But they look great hanging!

How fun to take a little trip and score! Love the molds, those are awesome by the door.

Leslie Harris said...

Hi Martina, I hope you're having a fun summer with the kids home. Your house always looks so pretty and put together, I wish we lived closer I'd love to hit a few antique shops with you. I can't believe I don't have a demijohn yet, I love them. Lucky you, and what a good idea to hang those copper pieces by the door. I wouldn't think to do that.

Katie Mansfield said...
