Muslin and linen grain sack and cloths

First cloth is the fabulous Lay Or Bust! I just love it. This is not a complete bag, but just a one piece cloth (almost like a dish towel) measuring 37 by 18. Second is also one piece cloth and the words appear backwards. If flipped to reverse, words cannot be seen. This one measures 28 by 13-1/2 and reads Atlas flour. The third is a linen bag with blue ticking stripes on back. Front is for Commonwealth bakers and has instructions on how bags are to be filled at mill. This one measures 41 by 18-1/2. All SOLD!

Primitive rope bed tightener

Wonderful primitive! Hand carved rope bed tightener. Measures 10-1/2 by 3 and 15 inches across at bar in middle. SOLD!

Lyn Kells and I spent most of yesterday afternoon haunting our little Scotty camper. She brought along a few Halloween items to sell. This large lidded basket and small black house are two of the things you will find! Both are sold!

Primitive sled

I thought about keeping this for November or December, but it has such perfect fall colors in red and yellow, that I decided it could be a fall sled! This little cutie is rustic and well used, but great look. It stands 38 inches tall and is 12 inches wide at widest point. Bittersweet swag comes with it, if desired! SOLD!

Very cool old large drawer with dividers

This is an old drawer, possibly a cash drawer? Constructed with old square nails and mortise and tenon joins on bottom. This drawer measures 31 inches long by 18-1/2 and is 5 inches tall. I stood it on end to show how it could be used as a display piece. Could also be hung on the wall. Sold!

Hood Rubber shipping crate

The crate is certainly not perfect, but has nice graphics on three sides. There is also a shelf inside so if this crate is turned on end, it makes a nice little shelf display. This crate measures 27 by 19 by 14 inches tall. SOLD!
