These gifts are "junk!"

 
 Hello, friends! Last weekend my girlfriends Kelley, Kim and Jodi did some antique shopping on Saturday. I couldn't make it due to Jack's basketball schedule. But, being the sweet friends that they are....they brought back a few special surprises for me! There is definitely a rooster theme. These sweet cloth napkins are from Kelley. Aren't they so cute? I would really like to turn them into sachets. I might need a bloggy friend to send me a pattern. I have limited sewing skills!

These Easter postcards both have a rooster on them! These came from Kim. I'm sure she had to dig for these. Thank you, Kim.  I love them.  Anyone want a scan? I'd be happy to post or email.
I just love the colors in this old potato sack! Jodi found this. It is huge! I'd love to have some pillows made from it. It will definitely need some backing. We'll see. Hey, could someone let Golden Boy Potatoes know that a Rooster would have been a much better choice for a mascot.  I hope you are having a great week.  I'm headed to Renningers this Saturday for some junk! Can't wait to share. Still trying to decide on something special for my 500 follower giveaway. I'll be looking this weekend.  Linking up to these inspirational parties -

    Hi~ I have been following your blog for a while. Wanted to email you, but something isn't installed on my computer to let me do that. (I do need to get that corrected.) I have made many sachets, and would be glad to talk with you about making these adorabe napkins into sachets. I live in Mt. Dora. Feel free to email me, and we can go from there.

    Lemons have a low, highly acidic pH, which is attributable to their citric acid
    content. The acidity of a fresh lemon can vary between
    2.2 and 2.4 on the pH scale, depending around the fruit's state of ripeness.

    I am carrying out a paper on yoga and my factors are how it's helpful for males, ladies, and little ones. Will be the advantages various sufficient to get a good paper out of it or need to I modify my factors? In the event you do feel this is a good way to lay out my paper, what will be the various benefits? Remember to give me some internet sites or other resources since no matter how I lay it out, my paper must be about yoga! Many thanks!

    men and women that use this one particular just don't get it or believe waiting overnight for any World of Warcraft game release is living daily life towards the fullest. LOL
