Treasures found in Wimberley... or What's on Dixie's list...

Sometimes my lists don't make any sense to anyone else.. but they make sense to me...! First on the list... "White Popcorn Spread"... or White Chenille Spread... I needed one, a "cutter" to make some pillows and to recover a small chair...Got it!... and only paid $5... beautiful! Wicker basket... Susan at Between Naps has a beautiful basket of daisys hanging on her red front door... I've been looking for one of those long flat baskets since first seeing Susan's basket... I found one that I think will work.. needs some paint.. but... at $3.50... I'm going to give it a try... Silver... or... Vintage Silverware... how about this... 27 pieces of 1847 Silver Plate, Rogers Brothers Ancestral Pattern, circa 1924... $52... just what I was looking for... isn't it pretty... a whole box full and on sale! I didn't find a chair... but I'll keep looking... I did find a few other little treasures to share with you... like these pretty blue bird salt and pepper shakers that were sitting amongst some Lu-Ray Pastel dishes, but I haven't been able to find any info that would indicate they were from the Lu-Ray line... they are just very similar in color. Do they remind you of some white ones from Target...? Me too! Something for Ricky... remember the shoe collection for only $3 each... How about a Frankoma Cowboy Boot for $3...! What a deal. Ricky loved it! I think this came from a bar or resturant.. A Paul Masson Vinyard wooden plaque from California... I like it! and look at these! Only $7.50 each... I got 4... doesn't it remind you of those Horchow chargers? a sweet bunny and egg for Easter... in my favorite blue and white...
Silk scarves for only $3 each... I managed to find 4 that I really liked... A pretty little handmade apron that I couldn't resist! It was only $3 after all.For a collage of frames I'm working on... I found one for $3 and one for only a buck!Candy really liked these little birds I bought for my front porch table... I think she liked them because they came pre-rusted... $8... no extra charge for the rust! and that thing I bought that made everyone say... huh? It's a glass float used for fishing... I'll be using it for something else, that does involve water... but it won't be floating..
Then, there always seems to be that one thing that calls out to me. Something that may not make any sense to anyone else (alot like my list), but it makes sense to me... something that I just cannot leave without... Something a lot like Lahoma's painting... or something like this...
A framed photograph of Connie Reeves... a member of the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame. Connie died at the age of 101, due to injuries recieved in a fall from her beloved horse, Dr Pepper... from one cowgirl to another... "what a way to go"...

Our next little adventure... First Monday Canton... wanna come?
