I needed to play a little catch up on a few items I missed from recents Collection Challenge posts.
After my needlebook challenge I found this in my studio drawer.
It wasn't stashed with rest of the other needlebooks, so I missed it on my post.
A dime well spent even if the book has condition issues.
When I did my collection challenge on vintage thermoses, Shara left a comment saying she wanted to find a vintage HOLIDAY one. I forgot to include the one I had on the post...ooops.
And last but not least I found this vintage wastebasket while junking with Amy this weekend on our Alameda adventure. The basket was found at antique mall in Chico. I loved the silly brownie pixies cleaning up. It will fit in with my wastebasket collection.
If you have an idea for a future collection challenge, leave me a comment and finish the sentence "Show me your collection of ____." Always fun to see what I have to share.
p.s. Awesome friday estate sale. Superb Alameda flea market/junking road trip with Amy...posts coming. Crazy good weekend.
Cute wastebasket! Can't wait to hear about your weekend. See you Thursday:-)

Ha Ha Ha....like your "Addendum" post! You are just so good at posting. I'd say that was a dime well spent for that needle book. That's funny about Shara asking about a holiday thermos and of course you have one with "Holiday" on it :-) Love the Brownie Pixies on the wastebasket! Glad you had a great road trip . Can't wait for your posts.
Thanks for sharing!
I'm getting more coffee to look at your wastebasket collection to refresh my memory :-)

That wastebasket is a real winner! Something like that, you've just gotta get it, because you know you'll NEVER see another one like it!

I was wondering if you two made it back or were pushing the car because there was no room to get inside - hehe! Can't wait to see the goodies.

Did you get time to stop by the 2 wonderful antique malls in Grants Pass? Shout out, I have a booth in one of them...
