Estate Sale Finds

A couple of weeks ago Rob and I ventured into the back of a very old very dirty barn and here are just two of our treasures.  The clear mason jar was filled with rusty nails and the blue one was COVERED in about 6 layers of grime and dirt.  I love finds like this.

The detail alone on this jar made all the sneezing worth it=)

    Isn't she kind of young to be smoking?

    She throws their dress up clothes away so they are driven to other things, Mom!

      What are you talking about? They never had any dress up clothes.

    Yes, it's really hot here too. High eighties today! We had to turn the air on! We will be o.k. though. Our seventies are coming back next week.

    You have air now? They say it is going to get cooler here on Friday and keep going that way. At least we only had about 2 days of terrible heat.

      I was wondering how the mason jars had eight comments already. Love the jars. The straws look so nice. I am going to do that in my kitchen too.

      I thought the same thing when I saw so many comments. I thought I must be missing something. I love those Estate Sales.

    As I was reading all the comments, I thought they sounded strange for pictures of mason jars from an estate sale:) LOVE the jars (and estate sales)

    Beautiful vignette! I love the straws as well. If I get around to it I am going to do that here. Show more pictures of that fan on the counter.

      So funny, when I was taking that picture I thought, "I bet Sheila is going to mention the fan in the background"

    I don't get out much these days: ) I have to analyze pictures to see how those on the outside are living.
