sold!

An evening at the auction listening to the hum of the auctioneer soothes my soul. Some snippets & details from Friday night.







This went home with me. I have a fascination with old German samplers. This one, loosely translated reads: Have your desires in the Lord and He will give you the wishes of your heart. Love that!

Those pictures look so neat! I love the faded green - is that a drawer pull?

Hi Laurie,
Yep, that's a drawer pull (and although it looks a different color, it's from the same cabinet as the decorative carved wood. The colors were so pretty!)
