The last couple of weeks we have been sorting through my Grandmothers things, and I've gotten all kinds if treasures I won't show on the blog (because it will just stir up others in the family). BUT one of the things I did inherit was my grandmothers seeing form who I affectionately named "Lucille" when I was about 7. She will be making an appearance at the Miss Casablanca contest! And I TOTALLY know where you are coming from on the "being startled" bit. I KNOW where I put it and every time without fail I jump about a foot in the air! Haha the Fan looks great, love a good old one!

I bought, a male version of a dress form last summer at a garage sale for $3 thought I could use it in my booth for hankies and aprons, but it was too "male" to work. So it went upstairs in my barn. My husband threw a red and black flannel shirt on it and pushed it toward the upstairs window. The kids playing on the soccer field next door are always startled by the creepy lumberjack guy in the window looking at them!Bargain Hunting Treasure Seekerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09357232422400947985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887033820809624619.post-69897441011289763672014-05-15T14:30:29.414-07:002014-05-15T14:30:29.414-07:00That dress form is fanfreakingtastic!

I also love Antique Plaza in Mesa. Not to mention all the amazing hiking.
