I went home during the week to 1515
Working on the Riot Fundraiser Auction
and
Attended the weekly auction with my friend
want to see...........?
I put some baskets together for the Fundraiser and took pictures so we can put them on our poster that will be going out around the county.
of course I forgot my camera....so they are not the best pictures
the primitive basket I put together for the Fundraiser
love all the burlap, 1803 candle, Illinois cookbook, 2 dish towels, burlap wrapped hand soap dispenser, Civil war lavender hanging burlap bag and the basket.
what do you think?
being from St Louis I put a Cardinal basket together.
Some things are game day giveaways.
Adam Wainwright bobble head, Red Schoenediest throw back jersey, soft side cooler, mug and cardinal teddy bear. The bobble head is selling on Ebay for close to $80
Books donated by one of our speakers and my friend at her shop gave me these Lincoln book ends!
I also picked up our tee shirts!
blue and white and the back says
"I had a riot in Charleston IL"
One of the antique stores in town is selling some for us
Sweet Cousin Fred was the first sale!
Did some shopping too

I love that holder for the Pink Flamingo, I've never seen anything like that - nice!!!
What a steal on the Christmas plate - can't go wrong with that one!!
Ann, You sure made your money count...what a nice haul. Love the teacup...do you ever wonder about the person who owned it before? I also love old linens...so sweet. Blessings to you Ann. xoxo,Susie

I can't get over your Pyrex deals! Wow! Yes, I think what you put together is wonderful, hope it worked out well for the fundraiser. Blessings - Dawn
Love Pickers! You have some great finds. I wouldn't pass on the Lefton tea cup either since Lefton is out of business.Hope the fun raiser raise lots of cash. Loved the first basket.
So many great bargains! Love the sweet kitten linen.
Wonderful post! I would bid on the first basket, the burlap theme, just wonderful. You got great goodies too. Love the cake plate and oh, that Blue Ridge china. Free vintage linens for wrapping? Be still my heart!
Enjoy your Charleston Riot! :) Pam
Ann,
I would bid on the primitive basket, dear friend!!!
Love the Lefton Lily of the Valley tea cup and saucer, too!!!
Looks as if you had a great time at auction and netted some great finds!!!
Fondly,
Pat
I so enjoy taking the journey with you while you prepare for your celebration. Your baskets are delightful, and I'm sure will have bidding wars at the fundraiser. How I love a good auction but not many are available in my area. Your letters are on the top of my list, but everything was a treasure.
I think your baskets are great and I do love Lavender! That little teacup is so pretty and I would have jumped for joy when they handed me the kitty linens to wrap things in. Of course I am always happy to see Flamingo Pyrex! All in all, you did great. Thanks for sharing at TTF!
Great deals! Love that cat embroidery-- free? Wow!
The first image of auction items caught my eye. :) Love that they wrap your treasures in vintage linens. A win win. Lily of the valley is one of my favorites.
Gorgeous pyrex but I am really jealous of your cake server. You found great deals!
