* A great the little pin cushion is the floral item.
* A few buttons.
* Old motel keys

* A wood item labeled NO-Darn - It is for ironing on reinforcing patches in the heels of socks???
* Metal advertising signs- It reminds me of my dad- He loves hot dogs!
* Magazines .25 each.

I had so much fun finding these items. I hope you enjoyed seeing them!

This is a look down the hill at Reininger's. It was wall to wall booths. This was the center isle at the top of the field. Booths were off both sides. I also posted a picture of the horse trailer I bought for my toy Tonka truck. I think the colors are a great match. I just love the idea of this realistic well worn (loved) toy. I guess Seth was jealous so he bought a Jeep and a small U haul trailer. I use the tuck on my dinning table to hold fruit.

This past weekend Seth and I traveled to central Florida in search of treasures. We went to Reininger's in Mt Dora on Sunday and Webster on Monday. Both are large antique markets setup in fields. They estimate between 60,000 and 70,000 people were at Webster.

So here are my treasures
Betsy- is the name I gave my new dress form. She is foam with a cast iron base and cotton slip. Cost $20.00
