Interesting dog sled



Neat wooden dog sled has slatted seat, and metal runners. The seat back has a pin in it. When you remove the pin, the seat folds down so the whole sled is flat for storage. This is the time of the year to display this piece! SOLD!

Great Bear Spring Company water bottle




Cool water bottle with cap showing the trademark bear for Great Bear Spring Company. Front of bottle has embossed bear on glass.
SOLD!

juggling pin with hand painted Santa


Somehow this juggling pin ended up in my store. It had originally been painted with an Uncle Sam. I thought it would be much better to turn Uncle Sam into Santa! My friend Deb helped me transform him into Santa. We are lucky it looks anything like Santa because I think we drank half a large bottle of wine while we were painting!

Large aluminum scoop


This is the biggest scoop I have had. It looks like it would hold a five pound bag of flour!

Hand crank yarn winder

Hand cranked primitive yarn winder. Early construction is hand pegged with wood. I have seen a lot of these, but usually the stand is missing. SOLD!

Aspen the brown nosed reindeer!


I don't usually like to see dogs in costumes, but I found these reindeer antlers while unpacking Christmas decorations. Unfortunately for Aspen, he was in the room at the time, and they matched his fur color so perfectly! He only had to wear them long enough to take a quick picture!

Tin cake box


Tin cake tin with graphics still showing through the chipped paint. Has it's lid too!
SOLD!

Green enamel top table

I love the way this table looks in the store with it's wonderful green finish. I'm afraid it won't be here long! SOLD! :(


Tool tote number 43 (just kidding!)

I really have no idea how many of these I have had, but they are very popular! Measures 25 by 10 inches. They look so pretty at this time of year, filled with greens. Black paint.
SOLD!

Christmas crow wall hanging


Primitive wall hanging is a Christmas crow wearing a Santa hat. He is holding two candy canes under his wing. Brushed with cinnamon, he smells delicious too!

Divided box


Divided box used to have a lid. It looks great on it's side as shown here, or you could lay it flat. Perfect for displaying your small treasures!
