Fun Friday Finds

Seems all I do is gather these days.
Ain't if great?!!
I've ended up with a little collection of spool holders now.
And a few weeks ago I saw a pair of wooden shoe forms on another blog.
I was green with envy since I had only found them in 'ones'.
Well, guess what? I found a pair!!

This is what it says on that part that sticks up.

Then I found this. Love it!
All rusty, and

pitty, and

funnelly. Is that a word? Is it spelled right?

And of course brought home this tin box.

You know how I love tins
especially if they have things in them!

and this one is full of old slides!
Family vacations? School pics??
We'll find out soon.

Thanks for coming by to see my treasures.

    Neat treasures. I used to have shoe forms that were my dads. I think they went in a yard sale when we were moving.your new follower.

    Love all the treasures you find. My BF owns an antique shop. I share your blog with her and she's often green with envy.

    I always thought as I got older, I would be getting rid of things and slowing down on my gathering. It isn't so, I gather more now than ever.
    It's fun and interesting too just to see what you can come across and then to do something special with it all.
    You found some very fun things and I am looking forward to seeing what you do with them, Char
