Silcox Action

Saturday was an Action in a little town called Payson. Hubby and I decided to go with some friends, I had been once before and it sounded like there would be some pretty good stuff.
And there was a few things that I thought that I needed. Will I really didn't need them just wanted them. There was a white pitcher that I had been looking for and they do have them new at Ikea so I knew that I could get one there for $20.00 so I wasn't going to bid over that! Will I didn't get it, it went for $35.00.
But I did bid on the red water pump that I just thought would look so good in my garden. Hubby is going to put in on a block of wood that he has so it will look like it really works!
I also bid on the great clock for my craft studio. I've needed a clock up there and I have been looking everywhere for one that is big so I can see it from my loom. I got it for just $5.00, what a deal that was!
I really like the way it looks hanging above my yarn storage boxes.
I got the vase for just $2.50!
I put it in my bathroom on top of a cute red cabinet. It looks good with my with plates and a picture of flowers that hung in my grandmothers bedroom when I was a little girl.
It was a fun time!

  6. Gosh but that auction looked like a lot of fun. And some good bargains too. And some not so good ones *LOL. I've always been a little timid about trying an auction. Maybe I should just go watch one first.
