Awesome Auction Finds/Treasures & a Custom Order

Hello friends! Happy Tuesday! 

I hope you're having some nice weather like we are! We've been enjoying some warmer sunny days in the past few days, and it's been super wonderful! We've already grilled out a handful of times and are enjoying working in the yard. I can't wait to start planting some flowers and make another fairy garden!! Here's last years if you'd like to take a peak *FAIRY GARDEN*.

I had a custom order to make this cute little Elephant softie. I just love how he turned out! In fact one of the girls at work, loved him so much she wants me to make her a pink giraffe for her bed.  :) 

I made this hoop for my booth at the shop, 

{you might have seen it in a picture in my last post about my booths} :) 

~Now~

onto some awesome finds and treasures I brought back with me from the auction last week!

I think I must admit to myself that I'm addicted when it comes to going to the Shipshewana Auction!

You never know what kind of goodies you might come home with! 

A lovely rug (that has been washed and laying on the floor) Jerry thinks it's another bed for him, he loves it! 

I got a lot of vintage cigar boxes, some aren't in the best shape, but I might find something to do with them still, and for the others I have a couple ideas in mind. 

um...yes I bid on these lockers, and then was hoping they weren't the super heavy ones, considering this time we went it was only me and the hubby. But they weren't too bad, we got them loaded! Lol.

I only paid $15 for them....how could I pass that up! :)  I want to clean them up, and do something neat with them. ~Maybe in our back door/mudroom area. 

 Ohhh yes I spotted some dishes! I think I might have got just the box of dishes for like $5 

I can't pass up pretty vintage dishes for that! 

If you look up a couple pictures, where you can see the box of dishes sitting on the bench, you can see I got two black hands. I've been wanting some of those so bad to sit around or display jewelry on! 

I got this rusty headboard (left side) I'm excited to put it in a flower bed. That's another project coming up soon and i'm excited for, we're going to put a couple up in the front yard, kind of by the Arborvitaes trees. 

Speaking of those, here's some that we planted up in our front yard.

Hope you enjoyed looking at some of the pictures, I always enjoy and "swoon" at looking at all your pretties!!! There's always so much inspiration on your blogs! Thank you for that!!

Wishing you a lovely and creative day!
