You hit the jackpot didn't you? I really like those antlers. I also loved the old linen sack and turtle shells. You found a little bit of everything!
Wow! Where did you get this stuff? I look for trophies and never find them....the cubbies are excellent, mirrors in the tennis racquet is a new one to me (I remember having a similar racquet when I was a kid). So glad you pulled in such great stuff!

Wonderful finds Alison. Love your ironstone dishes and the heifer...great!!!
Wow what a haul. love the tortoise shells and wine rack idea.
Alison,
I just had to comment on the first piece, it is called The Bamberg Rider, from Bamberg, Germany. I have one just like it that I purchased there 15 years ago while we were stationed there (husband was in the Army, now retired). Thought you might like to know!
Donna
I like it all! I think your scored big time! I can't wait to see the cabinet after you add crown moulding to the top!
Nancy
Oh my Alison! You found some really great things! I'm totally jealous!
Kelly
I love every single item.
