    This one surprised me a bit. I have these ready for carrier pickup tomorrow. Started them at $40 since I had about $5 to $10 in them. The old hat ribbons sold for $200.

    I got this antique agricultural seed spreader with iron wheels from the clearance last week out in the sticks.

    Heaven knows what I'm going to do with it, along with the 100 or so other implements.:confused:

    Wow. Why is the wood so light? Sun bleached? Salt bleached?

    Seen these treated and used as garden features. I’d wait for a Salvage or Bygones auction or put them on Gumtree.

    Don't think I posted these. Christopher Dresser for Minton miniatures. Charity shop, three whole quid. I adore them. P1160476 small.JPG P1160472 small.JPG

    I agree with @Houseful. I think someone would think this is a great addition to their garden decor. :happy::happy:

    I believe I would have behaved badly to be the first to get my hands on those beauties!! ;):bag::bag: :D:D

    They're glorious perfect little things and not leaving this house. There's something about tiny works of art which is irresistible.
