On Saturday we went to an estate auction. I love the treasures at estate auctions!!!

Around here there’s a lot of glassware – mainly Fenton and carnival glass. There’s also a lot of farm equipment at most auctions we attend too.

At another estate auction about a month ago, we got great stone bird bath and a book of Shakespeare prints from 1906.

For months we’ve been wanting a dog house but really didn’t want to pay the outrageous prices – $60+. A few weeks ago we saw one on sale for $40 and failed to buy it at the time. We also talked about building one too. At Saturday’s auction, we bought one for $8! Yep, a whopping eight dollars. We got a few other things too, but the dog house was definitely the best deal for us!
