I trust that everyone is doing well and enjoying the much nicer weather. I promise to get out and about soon and start to enlighten you with new photo's/ So, in the mean time I have revived myself (:) and will bring a few pictures that I already have.

I am always selling things so if you are on facebook I have a group called  OLDE MUSTARD BUCKET and we have lots of goodes there. I also have a MAKE AN OFFER group!!

   Come check us out!!!

 

 

 I have to scoot and get busy. I am in the midst

 

of changing my place around. I also have torn a closet apart to spring clean and have that  to tend with/

 

I have already made 3 trips to goodwill. I did want to show you my find over the weekend. This 

amazing old butter dish. There is a place in the back for a spoon,  exclaimed the Antique dealer/

Also you open it up and it has a little place for ice

underneath where the butter goes. I thought that was the coolest thing!!

 

Who knows, I may use it. I just thought it was so pretty. I always wonder when I get such treasures who used this. How long they kept it. I am amazed at the oldest of things!!Lloyd also got me a darling set of pewter salt and pepper shakers.  would imagine the last people to use that would have been maybe the 1920's/ Of course there is no way to know for sure.

I hope you find some great treasures.

 

If interested in any of my goodes just leave a message. You can also find me on Pinterest.

 

Many Blessings,

Warmer weather

It is amazingly warm here in Tennessee! There is an effervescent glow in the sky and the breezes are most welcoming here.  I do love this time of year but do not like the hot weather.

I am so ready to go exploring the countryside but my back problems have somewhat hindered me. I love my antique stores and my favorite ones are in Kentucky.

McClard's Antiques is an amazing fun place to visit. There are so many unique antiques and primitives to find there. Gail McClard is such a sweet dear friend of mine. I love to go there and usually stop and take us  a lunch and we chat and talk about decorating. I have found lots of treasures there.



Another Favorite place is Rock Garden Farms. I love this place and Darlene is so sweet~!She has tons of Primitives, Antiques and great old Antiques! You truly never know what you will find there.

If you get a chance go~~

McClard's Antiques~~

I also love old Barns~!!

 

So I am planning soon to visit these places and many other favorite haunts!!

 

I have to first get my back problems squared away as it is quite painful to do very much right now. I do hope you will stop by these places if you get a chance/You will not be disappointed!!

With Much love, Candilou
