Someone at all of my favorite thrifting spots knew I was coming and put out stuff that just had my name on it! Really, though, as my friend Linda at <a href="http://ninasnest.blogspot.com/">Nina’s Nest</a> will tell you, we have discovered that it’s all random. There are days we come home empty-handed…but not today! No siree! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNeG4uxMKS0UXSXJvogsX_9HZlv9BloyCLGwi9I3P6Ix8Oyx7Fqx9Wg8s2EWwWmoKBlsCndEmakPVsW96R1xhvxsHjRy0yZ38oAsGz_eAJhF4gbE7a6QUX6XUR9-HC-om16p9gMEQCxG-K/s1600-h/Vintage%252520Spools%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img alt="Vintage Spools" border="0" height="788" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjE96sXZcpW-q2hZreBrm8R2Efk97x1DcKkG4785vXC-AsnxjnOeq-jDMhoTg54dmOF4-AZ4fSDNU_-wxghJBk8-UV6ve0KpKJxGXA6LIVmH_Ukpt85c7ScF3eez-jFPVP0Zy-y_saJicAF/?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Vintage Spools" width="596" /></a>I  guess I am the last one to board the vintage spindles train…but I could not pass these by at my favorite junque store! I got all seven of them for $4.75! I love that they are in a variety of colors and styles. And don’t they have a wonderful patina? <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPpSiMmSrY6vB4ycSo-Hve_2lnbQKVAyo5d5oGlH5-aC-CItmIvaJsgQm9_SxwQebEecZ3hfwoV1Ujv4OnPnHSoGTgBFwrmpFfW_nlyq4Sh8jfrtYil7rbS8kNJQzPoXgkb4mcbVkfEH9S/s1600-h/bk%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img alt="bk" border="0" height="788" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPw_mLq-klHRHjmC5S5z-eSim-RwVSjG5e6OPL8Qt2JpKKHiA2daj0Xl4KwABdaJITjHEzoDh0NqpnRr8oI4nuTpWyKac3FYrcv6SEWaZIGHGoDFR3NlgtSF7dm452YXQUjnPtbTD5cZn0/?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="bk" width="596" /></a> Baby Kitty says he does not see what the big deal is.

If I keep finding these little ladies I’ll soon have a miniature herd! And for only $8.00 I was not passing this one up since it is the sister of… <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbE1fFa76k3CGF7kHx3w0rcYsWtviwCzwA5pNI0YkK_HRlhSz6yb4pPh99iMMVKVw5qbCTuRNdmO1APaWpA7KRGKUlXRj1gFIZIb66cvcy60t_CYrR_SqkjxeMJjb6aWjLTT-lJFkyugTD/s1600-h/sheep%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img alt="sheep" border="0" height="500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLEf3NWORw4wU59xwjilDN6hXZbcUcyG4HdBfUKR0tbzEo-VRZV3Z-mP5Pxmi-pz2CqzFYiMMqqA3rzp_CV2_G988jIuOEKXJCT4PR6bqyhrKSaHms69GVQW_sQIpte3WeFaui-FE-BeZ0/?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="sheep" width="660" /></a>…the sheep I showed you last week! I waited and watched for two years before I bought this one since it was out of my usual price limit. I finally threw caution to the wind and splurged when it went on sale a bit. Sooo…that $8.00 cow was going home with me for sure! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ-QtQRQwJo1cafevCU_lit_qUI66NZC9BJCVJRVrnQVs9nYtiF7I18aHiyhoYu4MV2nTJxoxoQdzieSej8DYASpt5MLDfJYWZVUeZEWgmggZfdjKrJhDeMfEaw-uM9m8bpcBAYUnMy6xp/s1600-h/Vintage%252520Cow%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img alt="Vintage Cow" border="0" height="788" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyD_MBEELSEmi-dUKbq2gik4_Va5q1jWLn3M0fkvXoiEB3zJRl469hnT3-G6bIyy6Ry5b39FdpQQ54a3LwRPnEbOgNgJtLpywFhH_icgbWfJab4J8ozVQZJEsi1bnbKrriWZrfSpAr_5cF/?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Vintage Cow" width="596" /></a> And just in case you think you are seeing double…you are not!

I guess she has a mama now!

I went straight home and put it on my back door. Love it! It’s a pretty vestige of the fading summer days. I will leave it here as long as I can hold out before putting up my fall wreath! lol I don’t want to rush the season, but I can’t wait! Are you chomping at the bit like I am?
