I think I got my Birthday gifts early.....

While in Port Orchard yesterday I got a chance to antique shop a bit.
Ron and I set a limit and I only went over it a wee bit.
Besides I knew he would just say "Happy Birthday early" and let me buy them.
There is one antique mall right in down town that I always like to look in, every time I am there I find something good.
There sure were alot of dealers with 20- 50% off on things, probably trying to drum up
sales in a slow economy.
First I found this old old, about 1890ish , Westmoreland Glass Co. milk glass vase.
Actually a piece I did not have and it was half price, so I got if for $9. I don't think they knew
what they had.


Then I found this darling little bench made from a head board etc.
That said it wanted to come home with me.
They had marked it down from $75 to $58. So it had to be mine!
My brother was worried about us getting it home in the car but we made it fit.
He forgets I am an old pro at getting things in a car, LOL!
Actually like it better than the one I had, so I can always sell the one I had.
Cushions actually fit it better too.
Now for the rest of the bedroom to get done when we can do it.
