One of our local churches had their semi-annual rummage sale over the weekend.
I picked up these two beautiful rugs for a song.
Don't mind the messes in the back round. I was cleaning as I put them down.
I put one in my bedroom and one under my kitchen table.

There was another treasure sale at the Jeremiah Lee mansion which is just around the corner from my me.
I picked up these beautiful hand painted twin head and foot boards. They didn't have
the bed rails but I only paid $25.00 for both so I just figured out how to set them up using the bed frame
I already have.
It may be that I actually have two headboards since they are exactly the same size but I am happy.
They are so pretty and unique.

Well...I also saw a beautiful little antique-y table at the treasure sale. It didn't have a price on it and it was
not something I needed or even had a place for so I passed it by.
Later in the afternoon I happened to notice a facebook post on my town page saying
that all the leftover items were free. I thought I would just take a quick drive by...
I was looking through some pictures but nothing interested me until I noticed that all of
the pictures were on top of the table that I wanted!
It was meant to be!
As I was trying to get it into my car a woman was parked next to me and offered to help. She noticed a
tray in my car and admired it. I have been driving around with it in my car for about a year now.
It was my mother's and my sister had taken it when our mother passed away but didn't have a place
to put it so she gave it to me. I don't have a place to put it either and neither of my daughters
wanted it. I just didn't have the heart to donate it so it's been in my car. I gave it to the woman and she
was so happy to have it. I'm so grateful that it found a happy home and that I ended up with the table that I
wanted as well.
I set it up as my desk with one of the leaves open.
