What I got at Pandora's Box



Several of you are very interested in what I picked up at Pandora's Box (see post below) Well I got lots of goodies, but for the life of me, there is one item on my receipt that i can't remember what it was. I'm sure it will hit me soon, but here are the things I remember right now.

I got this great strange old hanger for my hanger collection. I have my hanger collection hanging in my laundry room. Isn't this the strangest hanger you've ever seen.

And this metal planter. It's broken, but I'll fix it, It was a real bargain

This old metal wreath holder. I love these old things. It was also a bargain

A Fan cage, and an old dust pan. I'm painting the dust pan red, for Christmas Cards.

And this is my favorite find. I think these are Hotel room door plates. They are about 2.5" across and enamel. You know how I love numbers. I will be selling 3 of these, and keeping 3. Number 111 is sold. The other 2 will be listed on Ebay.


And Today I went with a friend to one of her junk haunts. I got all of this.

I've got a project for the tackle box. The lady kept saying, don't you want one of those plastic ones, this one is just about rusted out. I told her I liked the rusted one. I also got these 2 great candelabras

This 5 arm chandalier

And 2 wonderful old iron pieces

Also in this load were some spice bottles, some china, misc metal pieces etc.
Now if I could just figure out what that one item was, It's really bugging me.
Be sure to go to Pandora's sale if you life in East Texas. See post below for details.

Pop over to Time Worn Interiors blog for a great 100th post give away.

Is that old hanger a "suit hanger"?
