Vintage Thrifting Weekend - Wooden Cheese Boxes - Online Auction

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! 

***

Today, I'm so excited to share  a few treasures I purchace at a on-line sale.

***

I was excited to be able to bid on two wooden cheese boxes for a pretty good price - $5.00 each.

I'm using the 'Pimento Cheese Box' to hold a few Americana nic-nac's on top of a hutch in my entry-room

***

Right now I'm using the 'Kraft Brick' wooden cheese boxes in my Summer Vingettes on the Mantel

*** 

When the pack of 'Praying Hands Sticker' came up for bid........

 it took me back to the days of Sabbath School when I was little,  we would get sticker for attendence

do you remember these stickers?

This sweet seller threw in the extra epherema for scape booking or crafts.

***

Lastly, these adorable tiny dolls,

I just couldn't pass up the vintage 'Indian Cheif Doll' for $8.00, which is a little high for me to spend. I just couldn't resist.

1950's St. Labre Indian Catholic School.

I have a room for the Grandkids when they come to visit and I display my collection of nostigic Old West paraphernalia 

***

This cute little 1950's 3" plastic 'Baby Boy Doll' I purchased for $3.00 to add to a few other plastic 3" dolls that I have with different poises. 

This cute 3" Baby Doll is a composite Doll from the 50's

made in Japan

I purchased the Baby Doll for $5.00

Vintage-Inspired Summer Decorating - Americana - Coca Cola Collection

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! 

Today, I'm sharing how I have added Vintage-Inspired Summer  vibes to the top of my China Hutch

In the corner here I stuffed a few strands of Vintage Blue/Red Aluminum Foil Garland, I had thrifted a few years ago in the Gumball Machine. 

Behind the Gumball Machine is a Coca-Cola Tray I found at a Auction back in the late 70's.

the large Ball Canning Jar is a thrifted find from my trip to Illinois to see family last Spring Break.

***

In the thrifted Vintage Coca-Cola Crate I combined a few Coca-Cola Bottles with small American Flags,

 along with a Leather Baseball Mit & Baseball

my one and only Ironestone Pitcher.

I also included a Vintage Coca-Cola Stainglass logo 16oz tumbler, with a few of my Handmade Cloth Posies

***

I decided to change this area up a bit, by adding a Metal Tackle Box

Earlier this year I found two bags of Fishing Bobbins, thinking at the time they would look great in my Summer decorating. I believe I paid $5.00 in total.

I also added a few ffishing pole items to the Tackel Box

The Handmade Wooden Sign I did many years ago, just a scrap piece of wood I painted red and painted 'God Bless America'

I hope you enjoyed seeing how  I have brought a few Americana touches to my Coca-Cola Collection.
