what a way to pass the day~




on saturday
we,
(the hubs and i)
spent
the entire day
going from one
antique store
to
another
in the antique capitol
waynseville

i'm always amazed at how neat
and orderly some of the booths are~

my favorite
booths
are those
that arrange everything
by
color

i found and purchased
a little pair of sterling silver
pickle-olive tongs
i'm thinking they had really
little
pickles way back when
as these tongs are very
small
i didn't buy them for pickles....
or for olives...


                                                                    
   i  plan on using them for sugar cubes

                                                                           
~perfect~

What neat pictures!!! You definitely have a gift! I love the different color sections as well! My main questions is how did you bribe Doug to spend a whole day antiquing? I would have poked my eyes out *lol* I love your purchase. Those are such tiny tongs haha It's a good comparison to the jar! *lol* They are so cute with your sugar cubes!!! Seems like a fun day!!!

Sounds like a wonderful time! I think I could only get my husband to tag along if they had lots of old tools :)
