i couldnt wait to get home and show you guys my latest! ok next week is trash week sooo i thought i would take a little drive around on my way home from dumping leaves... i found a nice solid old chair and spotted this! omg! it wasnt on the curb but... up next to this house soooo i checked to see if i had some cash and yes! a 10.00 bill! soooo off i go, knocking on the door and this nice older than me gentleman answered the door. i asked him if the bird cage was going on the curb as he had a pile out there already. he said nooo i was going to paint it!!!(ohhhh noooo) and put some twigs and stuff in it. i said well would you be interested in selling it? as i was showing him the 10.00 bill. he said sure! OMG! it went in the back of the pickup like really fast! i had no idea how heavy it was till i was getting it out of the truck...:) i called daughter angela at work as i was driving off with it and was so excited and as im telling her all about it i remember her saying.. MOM you like knocked on the DOOR! i am going to have to make sure i get out there treasure hunting on the curb again! may be angie will want to come! whooo hoooo one of my favorite things to do! so what do you guys think? a great find?
