Show & Tell Friday--New Old Treasures


I've missed the last 2 Show & Tell Fridays and now I'm late for this one--but I made it! Be sure to click the banner above to visit all of the Show & Tell Fridays hosted by Kelli.

This week I'm sharing a few new old treasures. Yesterday I went to one our antiquety malls and I got to the 3rd or so booth when my phone rang. It was my husband wanting to meet for lunch, so off I went to meet him for a nice lunch at McDonalds--ok nice is a stretch, but it was nice to have lunch together. Afterwards I went back to the antiquety mall and covered 2 of the 3 floors.

I found this darling little clothespin bag to go in my laundry room and a cute little bar of Lux soap. It's printed to look like it was done in cross stitch and on the back side it says--The Screen Stars Own Beauty Soap--"Lux soap facials make skin loveliest" say Hollywood stars. I also noticed I have 2 bars of soap on my laundry shelf now--only one more bar to go and I officially have a collection!


Then today the husband took a half day off from work and we went to lunch again--this time to a nice mexican restaurant and then afterwards he took me to the same antiquety mall--I didn't tell him I was there yesterday, because there was a little biscuit jar I decided I needed and didn't buy and I hadn't gotten to cover the 3rd floor, so off we went and I pretended I hadn't seen the things he was pointing out to me--shhh! I got the little biscuit jar--now I need to find a lid for it and I also got a little crocheted sort of potholder thingy--it opens up like a little pouch and I also scored a pint jar of old buttons, so it was a good second trip! There is a little pitcher that I left behind that I think I need to go back and get and who knows what new stuff might have been added since I've left!
