Well, Bert and I hadn't been to Cambridge, Illinois for awhile. One of our favorite auctioneers, the Stenzel Brothers, was having a big estate sale...and here's what I came home with...
 |
| This was just the stuff that came out of my trunk... |
 |
| A metal doll trunk, $3, big box of silverware, $3... |
 |
| Including a nice set of stainless steel ice tea spoons... |
 |
| Monopoly game, umbrella...no wait -- what's Linda's Yoga mat doing there?? |
 |
| TWO boxes full of serving dishes for $2.50 |
 |
| These two little silhouettes were worth the wait. |
 |
| Yes, I waited for hours to bid on them. Can you see the clothesline theme?? |
 |
| The two little silhouettes came with a vintage Friendship picture. I paid $35 for the three of them. |
But -- the BUY OF THE DAY ($2.50) -- had to be the two linen flat shams...in perfect condition. Embroidered. Words. All my favorite things...and what do they say??
 |
| The left sham says, "Sweet Lillies Close Their Leaves At Night"...and the right sham says, "And Open With the Morning Light" |
