$1.00 Auction Purchase

Hi all!  I hope you are having a wonderful holiday weekend.
I had to share my latest on-line auction find with you.  I bought this cute pottery picnic basket for a whopping $1.00!  Delores at Vignette Design  has a picture of this basket in her header and I have always
loved it.
I still have to buy plants for the container but I was so excited I couldn’t wait to show you.  In the meantime here is a picture and listing at FCL Style  for the same planter.  FCL Style is a sister company to Pierre Deux.

  7. I love this wicker suitcase, and what a deal for $1.00! It is amazing what a dollar will sometimes buy…I'm amazed at what a quarter sometimes buys from yard sales sometimes too for that matter 🙂
    I am surely gonna be on the hunt for me one of those wicker suitcases…love love love it!

  8. That was quite a discount, friend!!!! I love that you admired Delores' basket and then found one like it. And $1.00..that's crazy – you got lucky!
    Thanks for coming to the party.

  9. Sherry good for you improvising and saving yourself over eighty bucks on a 'like' item that you were able to replecate for a fraction of a retail cost! Creativity and improvisation are vital to Junquing Enthusiasts, high five!
