 Carl buys stuff like this...

He loves general store items.

 I go for things like vintage milinary...picked up some neat pieces will show soon.

 How about this sweet bed jacket in pale aqua, from Montana antique mall, Missoula.

 For my Oldest Grandson who is soon to be in Paris...hope this helps! (boise mall)

 Here's my favorite...4 piece kitchenette, metal, Wolverine 1940's. Owner Jane was selling it in boise mall.
Another anniversary present (I play that card well!)

 Jane got it when she was 8 years old and that was 1948, she took such good care of it the sink stopper, so small is still there. She apologized for the rust inside, because she played with it, it really pours water from the faucet.

 Little stove, with over door that pulls down. The food packages I already had Rare to find a one owner set.

 Polar refrigerator...take a peek inside the door...

Painted on groceries!

Jane asked if I had little ones who would be discovering my new pieces...I said NO!
Not sure my grandchildren would even be interested?
I played with the Barbie kitchen sets, they had tons of accessories.

So, the moral of the story is...antique treasures are out there with YOUR name on them, get going!
(we'll have some fun pieces to sell in the near future).
