Barn Digging! Again!

 I was so excited to be invited back to this barn to dig as long as I wanted. Oh yeah!

 It was a lot of fun, BUT A LOT of work to unearth items, and get them down from the second floor. (No need to join a gym in my line of work!)

 My pics are not the best-my camera doesn't do well in dark places. I think you get the idea though.
 
Here's my pile as I was pulling things outside...
Here are some items once I got them home...I have a thing for vintage coat racks. I just think every cottage needs one, and the vintage hardware is usually a work of art in itself.
 This wire cart is so cool. Must have been some type of display, but the shelves are missing. I will probably make some from wood.
 Don't you love the plank barn door behind the cart? My first thought was to turn it into a console table or a narrow farm table, and you know I l-o-v-e galvanized stuff!
Overall, it was a very happy day with some great finds.
Can't wait to be invited back!!
 
Enjoy!

    1. Photo props?? Interesting! I just went back and read your last blog entry, LOVE IT! I am the same way. I just love to use my blog as my diary of projects. I love to read others, like a magazine article, but I don't get caught up in all the other stuff. 'Live your life, don't just post about it'. See you in March!
