I've escaped the snow and ice and now mud and flooding of Minnesota and am enjoying the sun and heat of Arizona. Although today is windy, it brought rain and that is always welcomed in Arizona (as long as it doesn't flood). It smells so good outside!
I hit a few yard sales this last weekend and this is what I found.
The best thing is this very old and very heavy trunk. It's made with thick wide boards. It's trimmed with metal and I can see it's copper. This town was Arizona's first copper mine so it makes sense they would use copper.





Thanks for stopping by!

I love the trunk and I can't believe you got it for such a great price!

Great finds! I love the vintage trunk and what a steal!
ReplyDeleteLove the trunk- and $10 is a steal. Love the headboard- wish I could find a few like that!
ReplyDeleteAnd you can wet down that straw bag and shape it and let it dry like you do baskets. Reeds are wet when they make the items, so to reshape, soak it down good and shape it and then let it dry.
Have fun with your great new finds!
Hugs- Tete
